Re: Consumer confusion

said by jwersan See Profile :

Next generation DSL products such as ADSL2 and VDSL bring a lot more bandwidth into the home with faster technology and/or by moving the aggregation point closer to the home. But, it's clearly not fiber to the home.
And does not offer anywhere near the speed potential that FTTH can and does.
I'd have to agree with that assessment. FTTN, which is what ADSL2+ and VDSL are riding on in most deployments, can extend the competitive live of copper pair, in comparison with coax. It is not a substitute for FTTH.
