The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) together with the European Telecommunications Standards Institute – Industry Specification Group - Fifth Generation Fixed Network (ETSI ISG F5G), the Broadband Forum (BBF), and the China Communications Standards Association – Technical Committee 6 (CCSA TC6) are organizing the Fourth Joint ETSI ISG F5G, BBF, CCSA TC6 and ITU-T SG15 Workshop on "FTTR" (Fibre to the room), which will take place 10 July 2024 from 8:00-12:00 (EDT) / 14h00 to 18h00 (CEST) in Montreal, Canada. This is an in-person event with remote participation.
Introduction
This workshop intends to offer the opportunity to continue the discussion on FTTR (Fibre to the room) for all involved stakeholders. FTTR is now a hot topic in Q3/15 for in-premises networking. ETSI ISG F5G defines additional use cases, architecture, QoE requirements for FTTR. BBF starts to look at management methodology for FTTR while CCSA specifies FTTR standards according to Chinese environment. The fibre in-premises topology and functionalities of FTTR technologies may be different from the current fibre-based technologies in transport and access network. For better developing the FTTR specification, & facilitate deployment of FTTR system, it is necessary to understand the use cases & requirements, deployment challenges, and best practices of FTTR.
Target audience
Participation in the workshop is open to all regular participants of ETSI ISG F5G, BBF, CCSA TC6 and ITU-T SG15 meetings and to any individual interested in the topic who wishes to contribute to the work. Participation is free of charge.
