Due to its widespread distribution, ADSL has become synonymous with Internet accesses with high bit rates. ADSL2+ serves to further enhance the performance. The range of options provided by further DSL technologies, moreover, is far from being fully used, be it in terms of the Ethernet over VDSL or VPNs over SHDSL. The focus is currently on VDSL2, since a new infrastructure is created here on a grand scale. In the course, the participant gains a practice-related overview of the functions and applications of the different DSL variants. The setup of the network elements, the troubleshooting, and the protocols used are explained in a clear and uncomplicated manner.
