TV Over IP: Part of the Triple Play
Tuesday, April 4, 2006, 2:15pm - 3:30pm
The Revolution for the end user is not only about Telephone, but Television as well. The opportunity to bring Television over the same wires as the voice has been exploited in cable, but now DSL is getting its turn. This panel looks at the issues in deploying IP networks that support the triple play.
· What traffic management issues are faced in delivering these services?
· What home networking problems have to be addressed for delivery of the service?
