21CN; and the benefits in relation to, for example interconnect, convergence and
broadband.

Note
Expect to remain
unchanged (please
see note below on
potential TSR impacts)
IPstream services will be re-purposed
for delivery on a new 21CN Ethernet
platform. All BT Centrals will be
delivered on the legacy network, to be
replaced by new products that are
delivered on 21CN and are TSR
compliant. Requirements for New
Centrals will be captured as part of
ongoing 21CN requirements capture
process.
This can only be
confirmed when new
network platform is
used to carry the
service and end to
end tests have been
performed - expected
early 2006.

PHASE
Enhanced IPstream
•This is an evolution of IPstream that will only be available in 21CN areas
•Enhanced IPstream will consume the same FAS module as that
consumed by “regular” IPStream on 21CN
•Enhanced IPstream will offer as a minimum the same functionality that is
intended to be available on regular IPstream (including DSL Max, QoS,
EUSC etc)
•Enhanced IPstream may incorporate a new generation of “IPCentral”
products to connect to customers and content, as an evolution of the
existing “IPstream Centrals” family.
