What does xDSL offer to 1USA and its subscribers?
Today, high speed Internet access is seen by many as the first “killer” application of xDSL – there is a pent up demand for higher access speeds and DSL can practically provide these speeds. Today’s analog modems routinely offer up to 53kbps using the V.90 protocol. However, 53 Kbps is the practical limit for analog modems. ISDN can increase this to 128 Kbps by using TWO connections but this is still slow compared to xDSL speeds of up to 2 Mbps. DSL will open a whole new world of virtually instantaneous downloading of massive graphics and even video applications over the Internet.
