SPECIAL WORKSHOP

THURSDAY 11 APRIL 2013 9AM-12PM, WESTIN HOTEL SYDNEY

GIGABIT AUSTRALIA Technology choices over the next 5 years

In this unique deep-dive workshop, learn about the telecom technology choices emerging over the next five years:    

Your workshop leader Dave Burstein

FTTH, gigabit ready and available now Vectored DSL/FTTN: coming online next year HFC DOCSIS 3.1: ramping to a gigabit now LTE Advanced: heading toward a gigabit in 2 years

1: What are the costs, deployment timelines & product availability schedules for these options?

2: How can Wi-Fi be harnessed to enhance the NBN & LTE? 3: What will the tablet, smartphone & telematics revolutions mean for network choices?

4: Fixing NBN mistakes regarding pricing, cross-subsidies 5: Case studies from Europe, the US and Asia 6: What will 5G look like? How will small cells impact?

ABOUT YOUR WORKSHOP LEADER Dave Burstein started DSL Prime and Fast Net News in 1999 when fewer than 50,000 globally had broadband. He’s actively reported as the network expanded to 600 million connections. Along the way, he’s written two books with Jennie Bourne (DSL: A Tech Brief and Web Video: Making it Great, Getting it Noticed). Dave’s next book is “The Path to Gigabit Wireless.” His work has been picked up by the NY Times, Wall Street Journal and publications around the world.

Dave says “I report from New York City but the best ideas come from all over the world. By 2002, Korea passed the U.S. in broadband. Then Masayoshi Son in Japan brought in the mass market era with service at $20. Xavier Niel in France introduced the 30 euro triple play. Kenya may be the first in the world to create a 100 MHz block for gigabit LTE Advanced. China has twice the Internet users of the U.S. and Africa will soon pass the U.S. as well. Australia’s NBN is a great experiment. I’m glad to be visiting Australia and expect to share and learn a lot.”

Burstein’s Fast Net Futures and Web Video Summit were breakthrough conferences that presented the technology becoming crucial today. Fast Net in 2004 featured the first public demonstration of 100 megabit DSL. In 2005 at Fast Net, John Chapman of Cisco presented the path to Gigabit Cable and John Cioffi of Stanford introduced vectored DSL. Both are coming to market in 2013. At Web Video, Microsoft presented the first demonstration of live 6 megabit HD video over the Internet.

He consults for Vermont Telephone, building a gigabit fibre network and LTE throughout the state as part of the U.S. Broadband Stimulus. He contributed to the Columbia University “Broadband for America” report that influenced the U.S. Broadband Plan and did two workshops for the plan itself. For CommsDay, he reported the full two weeks of the ITU WCIT conference and the new ITR treaty. Australia and many others refused to sign.
