Protocols and Standardisation

  • Chapter
Fiber-to-the-Home Technologies

Abstract

In this chapter several protocols have been studied from different point of view. Nowadays, several field trials have been deployed with the ATM technology and others are going to use Ethernet technology (Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet). A comparison between both technologies is presented.
