Abstract :
The key to the successful emergence of the information society [1] is an access system that permits new and diverse communication services to flourish. A fundamental component of such a network is a digital end-to-end communication capability. This paper presents an approach to the design of a digital access system for application in both residential and business environments. Switch, customer premises, and distribution design concepts are presented, and the results of field and laboratory tests of a multichannel digital distribution system are described.
