150 Mbit/s DSL.

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the i'd-settle-for-150Kbit/s dept.

surstrmming writes "German company Infineon have released their new QAM VDSL Plus chips, providing 150 Mbit/s data rates over ordinary copper wire." Note that that kinda throughput is at the 1000 feet mark... but the chip can still serve up 4mbps even at 13,000 feet.
