Conclusions

  Lessons learned from ASDL/VDSL   ITU-T embraced DSL as the next generation technology for broadband

access (following voice band modems)   ADSL has been the trigger for network transformation and broadband

access towards an end-to-end multi-service packet network, reusing installed telephony wires for last mile

  ADSL/Broadband Forum took technology and networking to a higher level with architecture, testing and management, convergence with fiber and with mobile

  Keys to success   Research/Innovation handover to business units   Early (research) and constant (from both research and business units)

investment in Standards   Innovation and standards go hand in hand   Big market players need to be big in standards
