HSBB Technology Mix
HSBB delivered to consumers and businesses will be through a mix of Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH)*, Ethernet-to-the-Home (ETTH)**, Very High Speed Digital Subscriber Line 2 (VDSL2)*** and Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line 2+ (ADSL2+)**** technologies. In greenfield (new development) areas, FTTH will be the pre-dominant technology used for both residential and commercial properties, whereas, brownfield (existing development) areas will be served by FTTH, ETTH, VDSL2 and ADSL2+ technologies depending on the types of properties and services to be deployed.
The diagram below illustrates this.
* Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) – the physical delivery of fibre optic cables directly to homes & businesses replacing the existing copper lines
* Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) – the physical delivery of fibre optic cables directly to homes & businesses replacing the existing copper lines
** Ethernet-to-the-Home (ETTH) – a generalised fibre solution evolving from a circuit switched model to an entirely packet switched model using Ethernet as opposed to Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM)
*** Very High Speed Digital Subscriber Line 2 (VDSL2) – an access technology using existing copper lines which is the newest and most advanced standard of DSL broadband wireline communications
**** Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line 2+ (ADSL2+) - an access technology using existing copper lines that is able to extend the capability of basic ADSL by doubling the number of downstream bits
