"Wholesale access has been inherently supported by the Broadband Forum's network architecture over the past 20 years, and this project takes the best practices from copper‑based broadband to reshape and evolve them for fiber and cloud networks."
"The project will identify and define the best innovations, solutions, and practices for Service Providers, covering topics from innovative line testing to domain monitoring, service differentiation, and far-edge computing."
"The Broadband Forum expects the project to spark innovation in a key area of the broadband industry by defining service requirements, best practices, and technical solutions for better wholesale access in broadband networks."
The Broadband Forum launched the Wholesale Access project to provide clearer guidance on sharing network infrastructure for wholesale use among broadband service providers. The project aims to define service requirements, best practices, and technical solutions that maintain high quality service while driving technical innovation and automation. Access network owners can offer existing infrastructure to retail service providers and content, application, and cloud service providers. The first phase establishes a holistic framework for wholesale service models, use cases, requirements, and best practices. The project evolves copper-based broadband practices for fiber and cloud networks, addressing topics including line testing, domain monitoring, service differentiation, and far-edge computing. This initiative is timely as fiber deployment expands significantly.
