Lisa Garza, Member Board of Directors, DSL Forum
The DSL Forum
• DSL Forum
established in 1994
– 12 years of focus on:
Empowering a global
mass market for DSL
• Most of the earlier
goals have been metnow is the time for
the Forum’s focus to
change

Market Evolution
• Market is evolving quickly
– Service providers
• are integrating fiber and alternative
broadband technologies into their network
• need a common management platform
• Require added intelligence to respond to a
larger variety of next-generation
applications
– Device manufacturers
• are building with an eye on access
agnostic interface.
• Dual-mode products require intelligent
fixed/mobile traffic management
– Consumers are purchasing online
devices independent of their service
DSL Forum Evolution
• Expanding beyond connectivity
– Focus is shifting from connectivity
– End-to-end access agnostic solution is required
– Next-generation broadband architectures must
• Accelerate the introduction of new services across a
converged IP architecture
• Reduce operating costs by simplifying network
operations and maintenance
• Enhance the subscriber experience by ensuring
application quality
Alignment
• Body of almost 150 Technical Reports
– Developed for DSL but with application well
beyond DSL
– Recent increase in liaison activity
Recognized needs• Need a better way of communicating the
relationship of groups of TRs that make up
robust solutions
• Need to proactive tailor our work to be more
access agnostic
The BroadbandSuite
• Focus on three key elements in
the next generation network
– The Home network
– The Access network
– The Service Control plane
• Create a program that focuses
on
– Marketing the features and
benefits of the Solution
– Uniting these three domains to
deliver an end-to-end solution
– The Subscriber and their
experience
• Provide thought leadership for
these domains
– End-to-end reference
architectures creates additional
liaison opportunities
– Additional opportunities around
test and certification programs
The BroadbandSuite
