[AusNOG] ADSL2+ line sync data

I would have thought minimal chance. If they're that close to an exchange/RIM to get good sync/speed, then they should remain that close with FTTN. It's possible there might be some silliness that happens due to cable paths, but it would have to be a fairly corner case where speed would drop. The copper isn't being changed, just what it connects to.
regards,
Tony.

You can forget about pair bonding in the broader plan - I sincerely doubt the budget or street cabinets will be big enough to build two ports for every dwelling.

distances to 800 metres, bandwidth tops out at 120 Mbps instead of
24 Mbps - but the shape of the chart would look much the same. A
negligable proportion getting the full 'up to' speed, roughly 30% of
people getting speeds down to 50% of the "up to" limit, and a large
hump majority of people down the low end getting about 10 - 15 Mbps
- probably better than the ~4 Mbps they might get now with ADSL2,
but not really up to the new benchmark.

speeds more predictable and push a lot more services to the right to
higher speeds, reduce the width of the fuzzy cloud in the second
diagram, but still won't deliver 50 Mbps further than about 750
metres.

Also scatter-plots of sync-speed with line-length, as per Figure 8 from another UK report:

If anyone is willing to share data or statistics, I'm very interested in pulling together similar Australian charts - on a non-identified, aggregated, anonymised basis if you wish.
