Hi Frank,

Never mind MLT. It was a shot in the dark.

I don't see any functional difference between 30/30 and 25/25 and there is a 25 Mb/s std. for ATM on category 5 wiring, I think. I guess I see no need for sophisticated DMT signal processing to get across an office floor. I also see little need for one-way video applications in an office so I am biased toward symmetrical transmission in such an environment. This might all be academic, however, as Ethernet seems to have a lock on LANs.

Apartment buildings are a different story as you point out in your example, opening up possible VDSL applications.

Your vision is quite grand and somewhat futuristic, even in 1997. It will be interesting to see what happens.

George
