5.7 DSL/Gfast Overview
ADSLx and VDSL2 technology uses the copper pair between the exchange or street cabinet and the customer premises. The
usable bandwidth is extended from 4 kHz to 2.2 MHz in the case of ADSL2+ and up to 30 MHz for VDSL2. Extended bandwidths
make the copper pair far more susceptible to faults, impairments and other degradation. Modem Emulation testing at this layer
not only provides information about the copper's performance, but connection to the DSLAM or customer's modem can also be
assessed.
