Annex 4 Westminster Telephone Exchanges Samknows Profile of Connectivity Terms Used: Glossary Local Loop Unbundling . The process of permitting alternative network operators to install their own equipment on a passive network. Numerous CP’s provide alternative broadband services over the BT Openreach network in this way, and increasingly this approach is the default for the emerging fibre optic networks. 21st Century Network . BT's replacement core network, which is being rolled out between 2007 and 2012. Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line . This is the most common way in which broadband is delivered in the UK. Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line, version 2+. A form of ADSL offering up to 24Mbps downloads, and up to 2.5Mbps upstream (for the Annex M version). Communications Provider . BT's terminology for their wholesale customers which are largely ISPs. Data Over Cable . A technology that allows broadband data signals to be transmitted over a cable TV network. Version 3.0 permits up to 200 Mbps but more typically 50 Mbps is deployed today Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer . The device installed in telephone exchanges that terminates copper pairs to provide xDSL connections. Fibre To The Cabinet. FTTC The process by which fibre optic cables are laid from a central point to a street cabinet. Traditional copper connections then run from the street cabinet to the premises. Fibre To The Premises – FTTP or sometimes FttH (home). Fibre optic cables delivering services directly to the premises from a local POP or telephone exchange. Internet Protocol . The most commonly used set of rules governing how information is sent over networks (not necessarily just the Internet). Internet Service Provider . A provider of internet access services. Local Loop Unbundling . The process of permitting alternative network operators to install their own equipment on a passive network. Numerous CP’s provide alternative broadband services over the BT Openreach network in this way, and increasingly this approach is the default for the emerging fibre optic networks. Lower Super Output Area . A standardised geographical area defined by the Office of National Statistics (ONS) for reporting purposes. Network operators are organisations that own and operate their own networks. Not all ISP’s are network operators as many rely on BT’s infrastructure. Next Generation Network . The generic name given to a new breed to communications networks. The main example of which is FttP. Point of Presence . A site in which a communications provider hosts equipment for terminating connections. In BT’s network this is the telephone exchange. Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line . A DSL service in which the upstream and downstream channels operate at the same speed. The fastest member of the xDSL family able to provide higher broadband speeds but over very short distances. This is the main technology used on FttC deployments, and is often considered as a bridge to true NGN’s.
