Abstract: | BellSouth's Superhome/Superoffice fiber optic concept is the focus of this discussion of evolving communication needs and services. Existing and planned optical fiber deployment in Southern Bell's four-state area is described. The broadband services to be offered include high-speed data and full-motion video services (such as high-speed facsimile) and wide-area networks interconnection. Some of the other benefits of the Superhome/Superoffice are improved security and improved health and medical support. Ways to finance home information systems are considered |
