Study Notes
What is Broadband?
- Broadband is an always-on data connection that supports interactive services, including internet access.
- It has a minimum download speed of 512 kbps to an individual subscriber from the point of presence (POP) of the service provider.
- Interactive services exclude those that require a separate license, such as real-time voice transmission, except as permitted under ISP licenses with internet telephony.
Advantages of Broadband
- Always-on connection (not shared media)
- Fast (> 512 kbps)
- No disconnection
- No additional access charge
- Telephone and data services can be used simultaneously
Wired Broadband Technologies
- Multiple types of broadband access technologies can compete to provide similar services to consumers and businesses.
- Examples include 100-location managed IP and MPLS networks using MPLS-enabled routers.
Objectives of NIB-II
- NIB-II is a mission to build world-class infrastructure that accelerates the internet revolution in India.

Broadband Overview
- Few users of available broadband networks prefer slower, but cheaper options using older technologies like conventional dial-up telephone networks.
- Existing wired and wireless telephone networks can combine analog, voice services, with digital, data services through retrofitting.
- Cable television networks can add data and telephone services to existing video offerings.
- Subscribers of these broadband services enjoy reliable and user-friendly access to a broad array of services.
What is Broadband?
- TRAI defines Broadband as an always-on data connection that supports interactive services including internet access with a minimum download speed of 512 kbps.
- The connection is from the point of presence (POP) of the service provider to an individual subscriber.
- Multiple individual broadband connections are aggregated, and the subscriber can access interactive services including the internet through this POP.
Advantages of Broadband
- Always on (not shared media)
- Fast (> 512 kbps)
- No disconnection
- No additional access charge
- Telephone and Data simultaneously
Wired Broadband Technologies
- Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)
- Cable Modem (CM)
- Power Line Broadband (BPL)
- Fiber technology
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)
- DSL is a wireline transmission technology that brings data and information faster over copper telephone lines.
- Traditional phone service connects homes or businesses to a telephone company office via copper wires.
- A DSL modem accesses the local telephone company's central office where a DSL Access DSLAM then transmits the signal from the copper telephone line onto a network backbone, and eventually to the Internet.
DSL Transmission Technologies
- Symmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL)
- Used for business applications like video conferencing
- Equal data rate in both directions (upstream and downstream)
- Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL)
- Used primarily by residential users who receive a lot of data but do not send much
- Faster speed in a downstream direction (from the telephone central office to the customer's premises) than upstream
ADSL Standards
- ADSL: 640 kbps upstream, 8 Mbps downstream, 5.5 Km maximum range
- ADSL2: 1-1.5 Mbps upstream, 12-16 Mbps downstream, 5.7 Km maximum range
- ADSL2+: 1 Mbps upstream, 26 Mbps downstream, 5.7 Km maximum range
BSNL's Broadband Access Technology
- BSNL uses Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) Technology for providing broadband connections.
- Customer needs:
- BSNL's Landline connection
- Computer with 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Card
- DSL Modem + Splitter (CPE)
- PPPoE software to be loaded in the Client
- Broadband Account (Username and Password)
Services Offered to Broadband Customers
- Basic Internet Access Service controlled and uncontrolled (512Kbps to 1000Mbps)
- Bandwidth on Demand (User and or service configurable)
NIB II Project Details
- The project involved the implementation of National Internet Backbone-Phase II.
- The project includes:
- MPLS based IP Infrastructure
- Narrowband Access (Dialup Remote Access)
- Broadband Access (DSL Access)
- Messaging, Storage, Provisioning, Billing, Security, Order Management, Enterprise Management, AAA, Help Desk, and Inventory Management.
ADSL Standards
- ADSL: Upstream rate of 640 kbps, downstream rate of 8 Mbps, maximum range of 5.5 km
- ADSL2: Upstream rate of 1-1.5 Mbps, downstream rate of 12-16 Mbps, maximum range of 5.7 km
- ADSL2+: Upstream rate of 1 Mbps, downstream rate of 26 Mbps, maximum range of 5.7 km
High-Data-Rate Digital Subscriber Line (HDSL)
- Provides fixed symmetrical high-speed access at T1 rate (1.5 Mbps)
- Designed for business purposes
Very High-Data-Rate Digital Subscriber Line (VDSL)
- Provides both symmetrical and asymmetrical access with very high bit rate over copper lines
- Deployment is very limited at this time
BSNL's Broadband Access Technology
- Built on a world-class, multi-gigabit, multi-protocol, convergent IP infrastructure through National Internet Backbone-II (NIB-II)
- Uses Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) technology for providing broadband connections
- Customer requirements: BSNL's landline connection, computer with 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Card, DSL Modem + Splitter (CPE), PPPoE software, and broadband account (username and password)
Services Offered to Broadband Customers
- Basic Internet Access Service (controlled and uncontrolled) with speeds ranging from 512 Kbps to 1000 Mbps
- Content-based services (Video on Demand, Education, Audio on Demand, etc.)
- Web conferencing service with features like persistent meeting rooms, multi-point, multi-media conferencing, and data conferencing tools
- VPN on broadband and bandwidth on demand
NIB-II Project Details
- Involves four projects: MPLS-based IP infrastructure, narrowband access, broadband access, and services platform
- Project 1: MPLS-based IP infrastructure in 100 cities

Metro Ethernet Project
- Provides Metro Ethernet broadband connectivity at A1 and A2 locations of NIB2
- Total 12 routers ordered for Metro Ethernet project
- 2 routers each at 6 locations for Metro Ethernet project
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)
- DSL is a wire line transmission technology that brings data and information faster over copper telephone lines already installed in homes and businesses.
- A DSL modem accesses the local telephone company's central office where a DSL Access DSLAM then transmits the signal from the copper telephone line onto a network backbone, and eventually to the Internet.
- With high-speed Internet access that uses DSL transmission technology, there is no need to "dial in" to a traditional modem, allowing for an "always-on" dedicated connection to the Internet.
Types of DSL Transmission Technologies
- Symmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL): used typically for business applications such as video conferencing, where the data rate in both directions is equal.
- Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL): used primarily by residential users who receive a lot of data but do not send much, providing faster speed in a downstream direction (from the telephone central office to the customer's premises) than upstream.
