thanks for info guys

I need to get educated on VDSL etc as im new to it, genn'd up on ADSL... but I went straight from ADSL to DOCSIS (VM) for years, now im on my first FTTC connection.

what are the differences between Gfast and FTTC? - is it just using more frequency?

that JDSU isnt as nice as the Blue one for looks  ::)

Interesting, does that mean they all get replaced every 5 years then?

No. Just they are out of warranty after that. There will be support contracts on them, same as other hardware. Those remain until the cards reach end of support, which is not the same as the warranty.

Your FTTC service is using G.993.2 (a.k.a. VDSL2) to carry the data over the metallic pathway.

G.993.2 (like all xDSL variants that preceded it) uses frequency division duplex.

G.9700/G.9701 (a.k.a. G.Fast) uses time division duplex.
