[ Pairgain/ 19 AWG ]

This is some old information, but I'll post it anyway. We really need to know what wiring Pairgain claims for 25,000ft. What are the distances on 26 or 24 AWG wiring? Teledotcom tested on 26 AWG wiring.

PairGain claims they'll be conducting field trials of consumer DSL gear this year! And they already have a distributor for their Campus products. Pairgain's blurb says a home version will be available for $995 real soon now, but the Campus version is out now; the distributor is quoting a minimum of USD $2500 for a standalone unit.

They claim maximum range of 8 miles, but that's only at the lowest speed, 384 kbits/sec, with the best wire, 19 AWG. At higher speeds or with thinner wire, the max range can drop below 2 miles.....
