Abstract
Overview:
The High Speed Access Report (HSAR) is a quarterly newsletter covering the current state of high-speed access, including xDSL, cable modems, and FTTx. The data are derived from quarterly reports of the telcos and MSOs and delivered to subscribers in a timely manner.
Each issue includes a wealth of information in the form of tables and graphs, and contains the following:
- 1.The Quarterly Report - e-mailed directly to you as soon as the last major carrier reports to the quarter
- 2.FTTP Watch - a special section every month on FiOS and Lightspeed activities
- 3.Special reports as the need demands - e.g. we carried a long series of comprehensive reports on the merger wars of Verizon, Sprint, and MCI
- 4.Direct access to the author - Clifford Holliday - for questions related to the quarterly publication, or for comments on the subject
- 5.Earliest and person notification of any new reports that become available in the area of high-speed access, often with special offers for subscribers
