Regulatory Impact Analysis for XGS-PON Standardization Development in Indonesia

The development of 10-Gigabit-Capable Symmetric Passive Optical Network (XGS-PON) standardization is done based on Regulatory Impact Analysis (RIA) method. This research implements several steps, such as definition, identification, assessment, and best option selection. The selected result for XGS-PON standardization in Indonesia is the technical requirement option 1. The option has the most benefits based on Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) combined with Plus Minus Implication (PMI). It offers a reference for a comprehensive device conformance assessment covering: 1) Compatibility of PON port interface value with the standard; 2) The ability of Layer 2 functions such as Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) and Jumbo Frame; 3) Quality of Services (QoS) capability with VLAN-based parameters and Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) mapping to priority; 4) Ability to deliver triple-play services (Video, Voice, Internet). The RIA method offers confidence for the Indonesia Government to implement standardization for Qualify XGS-PON. Implementing certified XGS-PON is expected to support ubiquitous networks as a form of protection for the Indonesian people. This research is expected to find the proper method for making a better decision for good governance.
