said by Derch  :Doesn't matter what the end says, everyone knows that ISP's like to drag their feet when it comes to deployment. Why do you blame ISPs? Usually the ISPs are reselling something being whoelsaled to them, and its them (wholesalers) dragging their feet. |

Yes, well I'm sure the ultra super duper deluxe horse and buggy carriage was a great hit in the 1940s as well!
Does too little, too late mean anything to these chipset designers?!?!?!? |

You're right, fiber is a better solution. I was speaking more so from the standpoint of CLEC's
A twisted-pair local loop is much cheaper than a "T1" type local loop. When there is equipment that can offer much faster data rates over cheaper mediums, there is a huge cost savings.

I take back a little of what I said. I bet SBC might use VDSL2 rather than deploying fiber and then VDSL to residential houses. But, in the long term, fiber is always best. |

Riiiighht! So verizon's spending billions of dollars to deploy fiber to the home wasn't necessary then.. they could have served bonded copper streams into the home! Its really too little too late for vdsl2 |

Not when it can potentially save them money in the end. SDSL is a great technology to replace data-only local loops. It's cheaper (Bell loop) and provides the same service.

Read to the end... it reads Ready for immediate deployment, the new VDSL2 Recommendation (ITU-T G.993.2), will continue to foster competitive global markets for high-speed equipment, assuring a level playing field for developers and vendors.
I wonder if it is true. |
