For VDSL2/ADSL2+ Broadband Deployments
DSL is an extremely cost-effective solution to extending the existing network infrastructure and expanding service offerings to include triple- and quadruple-play applications. ADSL2+ is used throughout the world, and much-higher-speed VDSL2 is quickly being adopted globally because of its ability to handle multiple high-definition video streams, voice and high-speed data.
The challenge however is to provide high throughput over traditional copper lines that were not designed for the task. Residential gateways in these installations must be extremely robust – able to withstand the effects of near-end and far-end cross talk – to minimize disconnections and maximize quality of service.
Beyond the standard residential gateway requirements, the must-have features of these VDSL2/ADSL2 gateways include:
- xDSL Standards Support – G.99x and others
- Robustness and Noise Immunity – support the latest enhancements such as Rapid Rate Adaptation (RRA), Retransmission, Impulse Noise Protection, etc.
- xDSL Performance – up to 100 Mbps symmetrical connection rates at distances that allow service providers to deliver
- Integration – provide cost effective solutions by integrating the processor with the xDSL data pump
- Power Management – support low power modes during periods of limited data transfer
- Platform Commonality – ability for the operator to use the same processor and software platform for their FTTH and xDSL Residential Gateways.
