While energy conservation and reach-extension technologies are being developed for
broadband access networks, this article focuses on the intersection between these two
topics. Specifically, it reviews several architectural enhancements that can enable energy
conservation in longreach broadband access networks using methods such as turning off
idle transceivers and other network elements, shedding transmission speed, and adaptively
reconfiguring itself based on current traffic characteristics.
