DSL technology and services are one of the fastest growing areas of broadband networks. The development of new-generation ADSL chips has been ongoing in the process of standard formation. Different chip manufacturers adopt different strategies. At present, the ADSL2 chip has preliminary products, and more products will be launched this year.
The development of new-generation ADSL:
On the one hand, because the new generation of ADSL does not change much in the application mode, and the performance and functions have been extended, you can also plug in the ADSL2/ADSL2 + User Board on the original adsl dslam, it provides users with a higher level of services and is compatible with the original ADSL Modem.
On the other hand, due to the general slump in the international communication industry, European and American operators are generally reluctant to invest more money to introduce new technologies, such as VDSL, and the corresponding network construction. In East Asia, Southeast Asia and other places, the rapid development of ADSL applications, due to the relatively intensive user residence, is suitable for VDSL short distance, high speed characteristics, especially in countries with fast broadband access development and fierce market competition such as South Korea and Japan, VDSL has entered the commercialization process.
Because of the VDSL technology, especially the EoVDSL method combined with Ethernet and VDSL, VDSL has some potential advantages over ADSL and Ethernet Access, and has attracted wide attention from carriers and equipment manufacturers. Therefore, it is necessary to closely track the progress of the new generation of ADSL and VDSL technologies, and formulate appropriate development strategies based on factors such as performance, cost, technical maturity, and market demand.
