NTL completes ADSL2+ broadband trials

http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/72650/nt...nd-trials.html

NTL has completed its ADSL2+ broadband and TV-over-IP trials, which began in March.

The cable franchise has demonstrated that its existing copper network is capable of supporting both broadband connections up to 18Mbps and HDTV (high-definition television).

The first commercially available ADSL2+ services are on-track for 2006, with BT and Easynet also conducting trials.

The technology has a theoretical upper limit of 24Mbps, though speeds around 18-20Mbps are more likely.
