Access network: History, Works, Technology & Companies

An access network is a section of telecommunications network which connects end users to their immediate service provider. It is contrasted with the core network, which connects local providers to one another. The access network may be further divided between feeder plant or distribution network, and drop plant or edge network.[further explanation needed]
