I know a couple of LECs that use these with success: http://actelis.com/actelis-products/broadband-amplifiers/ On Tue, Apr 28, 2015 at 4:24 PM, Jean-Francois Mezei < jfmezei_nanog@vaxination.ca> wrote:
A friend on a rural DSl association asked about ADSL line extenders.
A search on Google yields many products dating back to the days of ADSL-1 advertising 1mbps profiles, but a few seem more recent and support ADSL2+ (not sure if any support VDSL2).
Are these thing out of date and no longer deployed ? Were they ever effective, or just vapourware that didn't really improve things ?
Do any Telcos still deploy them ? Anyone know of deployments in Canada ?
I just need a reality check on those devices.
