Abstract :
The authors describe the technologies and architectures that can be used for delivery of broadband ISDN services to business and residential end users. The role for asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) packet multiplexing and switching techniques is discussed together with the need for broadband ATM switch fabrics. A proposed broadband ISDN architecture covering customer premises equipment, fiber loops, broadband access nodes, broadband switching, and broadband transport is presented
