In 2006, the number of broadband subscribers around the world hit a second peak of growth. According to statistics from CCID Consulting (as of September 2006), the number of broadband subscribers came to 263 million worldwide, with an annual growth rate of more than 45%; DSL is the primary access technology, taking up 65.61%; DSL subscribers outnumbered 30 million in China, far above the figure for the United States, which comes out second.

Thanks to robust market demand and the evolution of technology, coupled with the solid foundation of China's telecom industry and technology maturity, at present DSL remains the primary access technology in China. It provides access services for end users in three forms: DSLAM, MSA and AG. Both DSLAM and MSA based on the GE architecture can evolve smoothly to AG. At present, DSL access largely takes the form of DSLAM and MSA.

In China, the growth rate of broadband subscribers dropped (only around 40% in 2006), On the basis of in-depth interviews with China's three major operators and their research institutes as well as leading communications equipment vendors, CCID Consulting derived some important conclusions, e.g. local operators' ideas for developing DSLAM and MSA, business needs, and key areas of access equipment procurement, adjustment of equipment vendors' relevant business strategies.
