Abstract: This article presents an overview of Bellcore's activities in the area of nationally compatible, customer-controllable, DS3-rate (45 Mbit/sec) multipoint digital networks. These networks are designed to distribute to and collect from affiliates broadcast-quality NTSC television on terrestrial digital fiber-optic and microwave interoffice transmission facilities (more than 215 cities are now interconnected). The networks are expected to rival today's domestic satellite networks in cost, performance, reliability, flexibility, and security. A multicarrier, multisupplier, multibroadcaster trial of such a network is also outlined.
