Abstract
No one disputes the success of optical networking in the long haul business anymore and optical solutions for the metropolitan network are starting to take shape. The next frontier is the access network where new solutions are needed to bring the vast bandwidth now available in the transport network to the end user in an economical and flexible way that enhances existing applications and allows new service offerings. Emerging optical access technologies are poised to enable these solutions.
