For services providers, there are thousands of customers beyond the Carrier Service Area (CSA) range of 12kft. While each of these customers today represents main and perhaps second line service revenue, they are all prospects for increased revenue from higher speed services such as ADSL. | Soneplex HiGain HDSL4 DS-1 Service Modules Extending Reach Beyond CSA Range for xDSL Services Situation For services providers there are thousands of customers beyond the Carrier Service Area CSA range of 12kft. While each of these customers today represents main and perhaps second line service revenue they are all prospects for increased revenue from higher speed services such as ADSL. Yet service providers face potent barriers to realizing new revenue from these customers. The first barrier is technology. HDSL with DS-1 repeaters offers the reach yet is incompatible with ADSL when carried in the same cable bundle. HDSL2 eliminates this spectral interference with ADSL but is limited to a range of 12kft on 24 AWG. Other technology options are repeatered T1 with worse spectrum compatibility and higher costs than HDSLx and fiber with high costs and long time-to-delivery if fiber is even available The second barrier is capex constraints. Today every dollar of investment is scrutinized carefully. Reaching customers beyond 12kft CSA range with ADSL may appear attractive yet additional plant and equipment may result in a poor return on investment. Faced with balancing cost against revenue opportunity and with balancing reach against performance service providers now have a new choice of technology to cost-effectively reach customers beyond CSA range with DS-1 services. _ Solution The standards-based Soneplex HiGain HDSL4 delivers extended reach and DS-1 spectral compatibility with improved performance and lower costs. It is a complementary technology that expands the capabilities of HDSL and HDSL2 offering service providers another choice for DS-1 service delivery. Data shows that 11 more customers can be reached through the extended reach of HDSL4 in the 12kft to 16kft range without adding expensive outside plant repeaters. The combination of extended CSA reach to 16kft on 24 AWG and spectral compatibility with popular services such as ADSL translates into .
