xDSLs to the Rescue: Extending the Life of Twisted Pairs The telcos have almost $60 billion of stranded investment in copper twisted pairs, which can often deliver data only at rates less than 28.8 Kbps using dial-up modems. While dramatically higher-speed fiber-in-the-loop replacement technologies have been trialed for years, they are still too expensive and a universal rollout would take more than a decade. Meanwhile, users are screaming for higher Internet access speeds without the high costs or headaches associated with installing a T-1 or ISDN capability. The telcos have high hopes for a new family of digital subscriber line products that can cost-effectively deliver megabits per second over most existing twisted pairs. This session discusses the state of the art of xDSL and the key issues and drivers surrounding its deployment. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
