Hi list!
We are looking for a set of VDSL-modems to connect a customer. Swisscom is delivering 2-wire-copper (PtP). Which products can be recommended? Is anybody willing to sell 2 modems (or anything suitable for Master-/Slave-operation)?
It is not allowed to run VDSL on Swisscom's copper network for good reason. The noise and cross-talk it is injecting into the other lines is far too great. The only option for the rencently ITU-approved VDSL is to run it only from Swisscom CO to customer but not customerA -> Swisscom -> customerB. On the cable custA to Swisscom you would cause severe problems for ADSL in the other direction on the same cable.
Instead of VDSL you should use G.SHDSL which is symmetric and has good bandwidth as well. For example the Tahoe modems are a good choice doing almost 10Mbit with 4wire.
