FTTP	fibre to the premises Optical fibre connections directly run to the customer’s premises. The premises can be business, commercial, institutional and other applications where fibre network connections are distributed to a campus, set of structures or high-density building with a centrally located network operations centre.
GB	gigabytes A billion bytes.
GHz	gigahertz One billion Hertz, where one Hertz is the measurement of frequency equal to one cycle per second.
GPS	global positioning system A US space-based radio-navigation system that provides reliable positioning, navigation and timing services to civilian users on a continuous worldwide basis at no cost to users.
HbbTV	Hybrid Broadcast Broadband TV A pan-European initiative aimed at creating a standard for broadcast and broadband content delivery to TVs and set-top boxes.
HD	high definition A digital video system with higher resolution than standard definition (SD)
HDMI	high definition multimedia interface To digitally convey audio and video data among consumer electronics such as TVs, DVD players and set-top boxes.
HFC cable	hybrid fibre coaxial cable Transmission links consisting of optical fibre on main routes, supplemented with coaxial cable closer to the end-user premises.
Home network	Local residential network used for the connection of a wide variety of digital consumer devices and infrastructure to an access network
HVAC	heating, ventilating and air-conditioning Technology for climate control systems
IEEE	Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers A non-profit organisation and a leading professional association for the advancement of technology.
IETF	Internet Engineering Task Force
IPTV	Internet protocol television Multimedia services such as television, video and graphics delivered over IP-based networks and managed to support the required level of QoS/QoE, security, interactivity and reliability.
IP	internet protocol The key member of the suite of internet protocols at the network layer, specifying packet addressing and routing data through the internet.
ISP	internet service provider Carriage service provider offering internet access to the public or another service provider.
ITU	International Telecommunication Union The leading United Nations agency for information and communications technologies, including radiocommunications, standardisation and development.
Mbps	megabits per second Data transfer rate of one million bits per second.
Network boundary	A physical demarcation point between carrier-owned and customer-owned cabling. See Telecommunications Act 1997 s. 22 for a complete definition.
NGN	next generation network
NTU	Network termination unit An active device that terminates the signal from the access network and then provides one or more service delivery points as physical interfaces and sub-interfaces on the NTU. It also provides a physical demarcation point between carrier-owned and customer owned cabling equipment.
ONT	Optical Network Termination Can be part of an NTU.
QoS	quality of service The management of network transmission parameters such as packet loss, latency and jitter to maintain a set performance benchmark. A function used for managing services end-to-end.
Smartphone	Provide more advanced computing functionality than do feature phones or PDAs. Smartphones have more powerful processors, larger displays and complete operating system software providing a standardised interface and platform for application developers.
Unified IP network	Services, applications, devices and infrastructure share common IP transport mechanism.
VoIP	voice over internet protocol A voice telephony service involving the encoding of voice communications into IP packets for transmission over IP networks.
Vertically integrated service delivery	Services tied to the network access infrastructure and delivered as a bundled package to the end-user.
W3C	World Wide Web Consortium
WiFi	Wireless Fidelity Alliance Used generally to refer to wireless local area network (IEEE 802.11) technology providing short-range, high-data rate connections between mobile data devices and access points connected to a wired network.
WiGig	A multi-gigabit speed wireless communications technology operating over the readily available 60 GHz spectrum to enable communications among devices.
WiMAX	Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access Industry group organised to advance the IEEE 802.16 standards for broadband wireless access networks for multimedia applications with a wireless connection.
WirelessHD	Wireless digital network interface standard, eliminating interface cables among audio and video devices in consumer electronics and personal computing products.
WLL	wireless local loop A fixed wireless communications link that provides the last and first mile connection for a telephone and/or broadband service.
ZigBee	Wireless digital technology network standard based on IEEE 802.15.4 designed for low duty cycle transmissions for the purpose of conveying control and measurement data.
