VDSL

VDSL is an emerging technology that plans to deliver data rates as high as 52 Mbps in the downstream direction to the subscriber at a shorter loop. VDSL is not yet standardized, however both American (ANSI) and European (ETSI) standards bodies are working actively in standardizing this technology.

With downstream speeds of up to a blazing 52 Mbps, VDSL is the next step up the speed ladder beyond ADSL. The price paid for VDSL’s increased speed, however, is a shorter distance range. This means that VDSL can be a promising technology for applications requiring a very high bandwidth in the downstream direction towards to subscriber, especially in the Multi Dwelling Unit/Multi Tenant Unit (MDU/MTU) space. This also applies for hospitality suites ...
