Closing In On 1Gbps Using DSL
angry tapir writes "DSL vendors are using a variety of methods, such as bonding several copper lines, creating virtual ones, and using advanced noise cancellation to increase broadband over copper to several hundred megabits per second. At the Broadband World Forum in Paris, Nokia Siemens Networks became the latest vendor to brag about its copper prowess. It can now transmit speeds of up to 825M bps over a distance of 400 meters."
"advanced noise cancellation"
So that rules out most of the internet and email then, eh?
And with a 25 GB cap, you'll get several seconds on full-on internet!
825Mbs @ 400m ... I'd rather not live INSIDE the CO, thanks....
though there is political argy-bargy about it
I think there's something wrong with your new, high-speed network. It seems to be getting lots of line noise coming across as random characters on your Slashdot posts.
God invented whiskey so the Irish would not rule the world.
They can do this using two or more pairs. Most likely it has to do with harmonics, impedance, alloys and compositions and things with molecular structures that my primitive intellect cannot understand.
Better known as 318230.
Someone please explain how this works. Is this some bizarre artifact of the signaling protocol, such that the only way to overcome a design flaw is to use some incomprehensible technique treating physical wires as virtual wires? How can that possibly be better than just natively signaling faster on the wires?
Think of it as HyperThreading for the Tubez....
My driveway is more than four hundred meters.
That means I'll soon have 825M bps down and 1M bps up to look forward to.
