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 met- now is the time for the Forum’s focus to change

Industry Segment Breakdown
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 provider
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
• All work will be categorized and communicated as part of three reference models– BroadbandControl
• Network Management, Policy Control– BroadbandAccess
• Architecture, Transport, Access Interop – BroadbandHome
• WAN/LAN Management & Interop
• The BroadbandSuite Goals– Delivering a unified end-to-end, access agnostic
service delivery architecture– Ensuring quality, scalability, resiliency,
and inter-working capabilities– Expanding the reach with remote device
management capabilities
