titleQ3 Newsletter

At the end of August, our new Broadband Forum Executive Advisory Board (EAB) held its second session. The board’s 16 global member companies participated in discussions to help drive the Forum’s strategic direction, fulfil service providers’ future investment needs, and ultimately deliver greater value to subscribers.

We partnered with the Fiber Broadband Association at this year’s Fiber Connect in August, hosting BASe Technology Deep Dives which both educated attendees and drove important technical discussions. These sessions explored the technical challenges and opportunities ahead for operators looking to leverage broadband from the connected fiber user to the data center and everything in between.

titleA Word from our Leadership Team:

Over the last year, the importance of reliable broadband was laid bare. During a period of unprecedented reliance of so many on dependable broadband access, the contribution of Broadband Forum members towards improving the technological ecosystem cannot be understated.

We commissioned an industry wide Connected Home survey with Omdia surveying service providers around the world and created our first virtual demo that spanned Cloud CO, OB-BAA, USP, and Closed-Loop Automation. We also introduced our first Self-Test Certification Program (USP) and achieved several Certification Program Milestones... Read More.

Broadband Forum uses a collaborative suite of tools created by Atlassian. These tools allow our members to collaborate real-time across the industry and across the globe.

  • The Wiki (also known as Confluence) is for administration - meetings, agendas, project descriptions, and more.
  • Jira is a project management database used to progress BBF projects, and holds draft Working Texts (WTs), contributions, and ballot comments.
  • Bitbucket is a code repository.
  • Bamboo is a continuous integration server.

Additional software tools include FishEye, Crucible, SonarQube, Artifactory, and others - these are currently being used for BBF's Open Broadband (OB) work.

All BBF members have access to these tools - Sign up and review our members-only FAQ for more information.

To determine if your company is a member of the Forum please see our Membership Listing page here.
