ITU-T Recommendations

This Recommendation specifies the system architecture (SA) and customer premises equipment (CPE) architecture for the delivery of video, data and voice services across a VDSL access network to an in-home environment, known as a Full Service VDSL network. This Recommendation specifies the SA and CPE architecture at a high level, independent of the underlying broadband physical layer transport mechanism. VDSL is referenced throughout this Recommendation as the physical layer technology; however, the architectural specifications contained herein could be equally applicable to CPE and Access Networks employing other broadband physical layer technologies.This Recommendation defines an architecture that enables the provisioning of a bundle of triple-play services in a reliable way, with minimal user intervention, respecting the key requirements of security and conditional access to the content and at a cost compatible with mass market deployment.
