Optical Transport Networks & Technologies Project description

As 'Lead Study Group' on Optical Technology within the ITU-T, SG15 considers it important that those involved, inside and outside of the ITU-T, in the day-to-day development of standards related to Optical Networks, have a commonly accessible platform for sharing relevant standards documentation at an early stage. This hopefully will assist in meeting the common goal of focusing standards development on specific topics in a single standards body, avoiding duplication of work, increasing cooperation between key Standards Development Organizations (SDO), Forums and Consortia, and as a result, produce market oriented and timely standards aligned across the various bodies.

With this in mind the TSB Secretariat has set up an iFTP area, within the SG15 Web site, as a platform for the exchange of relevant standards documentation. This iFTP area is accessible to members of SG15 and of other SDOs, Forums, Consortia that are involved in developing related Optical Network standards.

Please contact the relevant lead person of your standards organization (e.g. SG 15 Rapporteur, IETF WG chair, T1X1.5 subcommittee chair) to obtain the necessary clearance.

The Optical Transport Networks FTP area may be accessed:

• Via HTTP: http://ties.itu.ch/ftp/public/itu-t/tsg15opticaltransport/
• Via FTP: File Transfer Protocol (FTP) client
  • Host Name: ftp.itu.int
  • Host Type: Unix (Standard)
  • Remote Host Name: /tsg15opticaltransport
  • Log in with your username and password
