VDSL
VDSL stands for very fast digital subscriber line. It offers the fastest of all DSL speeds but is limited in use. For distances of around 1000 - 4500 feet from the exchange/hub there are speeds of up to 50MBPS. It promises broadcast TV, fast digital media and high quality streaming media. This type of Internet access is still in the trial stage at pressent and BT have also expressed an interest and have begun their tests. For this to work to its full potential it would need to connect to a fibre optical line in the street or the exchange needs to be in close proximity.
