100Mbps: A Key Service Offering • 100Mbps services will be mainstream by 2015
100Mbps: A Key Service Offering • Numerous national and regional broadband plans give 100Mbps as a targeted speed • Cable operators are able to offer a 100Mbps tier with DOCSIS 3.0
Can Wireline Service Providers Compete? • FTTH is the ultimate goal but still cost-prohibitive in many deployment scenarios • Telcos can be competitive with copper – 100Mbps is practical and economical with VDSL2 vectoring and bonding • Let’s see how…

VDSL2 Fundamentals - Discrete Multi-Tone • DMT Line Code Is Made Up of Individual Sinusoidal Carriers Whose Amplitude and Phase Change to Signal the Data Bits • The VDSL2 (G.993.2 ) Has Tone Spacing of 4.3125 kHz • 8.625 kHz for Profile 30a. • The Upstream Spectrum is Separated From Downstream. This Type of Segregation is Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD)
DMT Tone Modulation • These figures illustrate the real and imaginary QAM amplitudes for 2, 3 & 4 bit tone modulations on each tone. • Each tone carries some number of bits (1≤ bits ≤ 15) based on its signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Three bits Two bits Four bits

How Many Bits On Each Tone? • The Number of Bits Carried on Each Tone is Determined by The Effective Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) Around That Tone. • The Greater the SNR, the More Bits Carried on the Tone SNR

Vectoring Benefits and Considerations • Vectoring has the potential to cancel crosstalk in a binder: • All users see rates as if they were the onlyuser in the cable • Benefits • 30-50% improvement in speed • Reach 100Mpbs with 2 pair bonding • Considerations • Limited to short loops (less than 3,000ft) • Need system level approach 100 Mbps to > 2500 ft, Using 2 pairs 26 AWG equivalent: Multiply vectored reach by 1.3 for 24 AWG
Conclusions • Complexity of FEXT cancellation will result in longer port training times. • FEXT cancellation for VDSL2 shows great promise for applications in which: • cable size matches the in-domain group size • system level deployment is implemented and group size matches or exceeds the binder size • loops are short • alien crosstalk is minimal. • After FEXT is removed, the resulting low noise floor will likely increase performance sensitivity to impulse noise and component non-linearity
Key Takeaways • System-level approach is best • Best gains (30-50%) with short loops. (<1000ft) • Vectoring is a short loop technology not suitable for CO deployments • ADTRAN knows vectoring. In 2008, ADTRAN received the “Award for Outstanding Contributions to an ATIS Forum or Committee”. This achievement was in recognition for our initiative to provide the industry with a FEXT Channel Model needed for the analysis of FEXT cancellation techniques used in vectoring.
