Minneapolis, MN | Re: What about Annex J and Annex M? Are they not offered? Use your l33t Google skills and you'll have the answer. To my knowledge, annex M hasn't been adopted in North America yet. ADSL2 is a dead standard due in part to it's 12M limit. | |

| vdsl, vdsl2 Not sure exactly, but I thought AT&T and Quest were deploying FTTN and then VDSL and VDSL2 to the home. I've also read that Verizon has used VDSL2 in MDUs where fiber wasn't practical.
Does this mean anything to those of us stuck at lower speeds? Probably not.
I can't get more than 3/768 out of my CO... even though my provider (Hawaiian Telcom) announced 7/1 and 11/1 packages almost a year ago. At this point, 1mbit up is not really enough even... but the primary competition (RR) offers the same unless I get a business account. IOW, nothing much is likely to change here.

SDSL is limited to 2.3 Mbps last I checked and unlike ADSL, it can't co-exist with conventional POTS on the same loop as it takes over the entire bandwidth.

East Lansing, MI | Re: What about Annex J and Annex M? Are they not offered? That is not true either. SDSL, from what was deployed out at my location (Lucent Technologies branded) was supposed to have a 6/6 max, and allowed for dialtone over the same wire.
I have a friend down the street from me who has ACD.NET as their CLEC, and is supposed to have a 12/12 service. I know he is faster than my Comcast connection. | |

SDSL, from what was deployed out at my location (Lucent Technologies branded) was supposed to have a 6/6 max, and allowed for dialtone over the same wire. That is not accurate for single pair SDSL that I can document anywhere. And standardized SDSL does not have voice available on the same pair as the POTS frequencies are in use. Now VoIP would have worked, but not POTS. SDSL is 2.3 Mbps Up/Down maximum. Even Lucent agrees when I checked their SDSL offerings.

said by quetwo:I have a friend down the street from me who has ACD.NET as their CLEC, and is supposed to have a 12/12 service. I know he is faster than my Comcast connection. Of course he does if that is Fiber, not SDSL. Now if he has ADSL2+ their best is 12/1.5 instead not 12/12.

ACD.net Announces In-House Fiber Engineering Department
ACD.net owns and maintains hundreds of route miles of fiber in Michigan communities. The metro fiber connects our statewide network to give businesses, institutions, and other telecommunication carriers access to ACD's high bandwidth and redundant backbone, ACD's MPLS network, and ACD.net's telephone services.
See? ADSL2+ Only is 12/1.5 as they don't offer 12/12 ADSL/SDSL.

ACD.net 12Mbps ADSL2+ Broadband
Up to 12Mbps download and 1.5Mbps upload speeds
Now I did find this below and they claim something at 5.7 Mbps is SDSL, but don't confirm/deny whether it is a bonded lines (4 wire paired or more) setup which it sounds very much like since they do offer bonded setups.

SDSL Solutions
With upload speeds as fast as download this is the ideal solution for businesses sharing data over the web or for people who regularly upload large files. Significantly cheaper than traditional leased lines with virtually no difference in performance.
• Fixed 24 hour un-metered internet connection.
• Up to 5.7Mbps bandwidths available
You will note that is still very, very much short of 12/12 SDSL as you posted.

I miss RADSL, it can reassign the channels from downstream to upstream on the fly, so your download will slow down, but your upload will speed up. | |

West Des Moines, IA | Annex M gets the larger upstream by putting it in the portion of the spectrum used by voice - they can't coexist on the same loop.
OTOH, Annex M works great and is deployed and working in the US. | |
