WT-280 | ITU-T PON in the context of TR-178 | WT-280 focuses on GPON systems in an unbundled services environment that addresses requirements not covered by TR-156. TR-156 and WT-247 address basic L2 GPON systems. There are "more complex" types of ONT and Service Providers have more complex requirements that need a reference in BBF GPON framework. ITU standards already cover these more complex functionalities from an OMCI point of view. What is missing are the architectural/functional requirements. |

WT-301 | Architecture and Requirements for Fiber to the Distribution Point - Issue 2 | This Technical Report provides the architectural basis and technical requirements that are needed to deploy FTTdp within a TR-101 and/or TR-178 architecture. To this end a new node type, the DPU, is defined. This node, typically positioned at the Distribution Point (DP), supports one or more high-speed copper drops into the customer premises and uses a gigabit (or faster) fiber link to backhaul user data to a High Order Node (HON). A key aspect of the new node type is the ability for it to be reverse power fed from one or more copper drop pairs. To Reverse Power Feed (RPF), there needs to be power supply functionality at the customer premises, the requirements for which are also defined here. |

WT-356 | Alternate Management Path for Broadband | This document describes a new method of managing broadband lines using an alternate data channel or path and particularly for diagnosing disconnections. For example, a smartphone can connect to a broadband modem or RG and access diagnostics data to troubleshoot a disconnected broadband line. This connection would be between the LAN side of the RG and the smartphone. The smartphone would then use an app or other system to relay this connection through the 3G/4G network back to a management server. Similarly, a neighboring WiFi connection or another data connection could be used instead of the smartphone relay. Re-configuration of the broadband modem or home network may also be performed over the alternate management path. |

WT-370 | FANS Overall Architecture and Requirements | FANS Overall Architecture and Requirements investigates on the technical aspects associated with Fixed Access Network Sharing (FANS), which covers the Access Network and part of the Customer Network in case of PON architecture, addressing the typical infrastructures, topologies and deployment scenarios. It also provides security considerations necessary to support multi-operator access sharing. This project outlines technical aspects related to the migration of TR-101 and TR-178 based architectures toward a shared converged broadband access network architecture that supports the business drivers defined in SD-351. Besides multi-operator sharing scenarios, this project can be also appropriate for a network operator that wants to slice its access network to offer different services toward customers (e.g., for residential or enterprise markets) and wants to be able to manage it using a vertical organization structure. Furthermore, FANS Overall Architecture and Requirements is the ongoing pilot project for the upcoming activities related to Access Network Sharing interface(s) and SDN-Enabled FANS. |
