Visionary Rolls out ADSL2+ in Casper
Casper, Wyoming (ContentDesk) March 19, 2005 -- Visionary Communications has deployed ADSL2+ in Casper, bringing the fastest broadband technology to Wyoming's second largest city.
ADSL2+ is a Digital Subscriber Line technology that delivers broadband internet at eight times the speed of cable internet.ADSL2+ allows the company to deliver up to 25Mbps of internet bandwidth to customers within a two mile range of downtown.
The speed is the equivalent of 16 T1 lines, or 466 simultaneous dialup modem connections."Broadband is about advertising at this stage.
Cable advertises they are faster than MOST DSL, and telephone companies advertise they are TYPICALLY faster than cable internet," says Brian Worthen, CEO and President of Visionary.
"This technology forces cable and telco to add more disclaimers, because Visionary's DSL is the fastest broadband in Casper."The company has also introduced a bonded DSL that allows a business to be served by eight lines...

ForeThought.net Launches Mach Broadband - Cable-Crushing Broadband Internet Service
Mach currently comes in three super-sonic options - Mach 1.5, Mach 3, and Mach 5, with 1.5mbps, 3mbps, and 5mbps speeds respectively. ADSL2+ technology is capable of speeds up to 29mbps using two wires (one phone line), or speeds up to 58mbps using four wires (two phone lines), and is a way for DSL companies to be competitive with "cable modem" Internet services that historically have provided higher speeds than DSL.In conjunction with its PerfectFone VoIP-based telephone services, foreThought.net is aiming high. CEO Jawaid Bazyar stated, "With the addition of ADSL2+ technology to our line-up and the amazing speeds that ADSL2+ offers, in the future we can deliver DVD-quality movies and television services over these same DSL lines. We are positioning to deliver the 'triple-play' - Internet, telephone, and TV services. In contrast to the consolidation currently happening in the industry, I believe that people want more options and choices - not less - and Mach is the foundation for delivering...

Visionary Rolls out Bonded DSL
Gillette, WY (ContentDesk) April 23, 2006 -- Visionary Communications has deployed bonded DSL in five cities in Wyoming.
Bonded DSL allows business broadband customers to achieve fiber speeds over DSL, delivering up to 40Mbps of Internet over eight phone lines.
The company offers bonded DSL in Buffalo, Casper, Cody, Douglas, and Gillette.Visionary introduced the bonded DSL product in response to an increased need from their medical and banking customers who require a higher-speed Internet connection.
The bonded DSL technology used by Visionary rivals the speed of a fiber DS3, operating at 40Mbps compared to 45Mbps for a DS3 (the equivalent of 28 T1 lines or 672 phone lines).
The company can scale the bonded DSL to the customer, using as little as two DSL lines to start.The bonded DSL service is an appropriate replacement for more expensive fiber links at almost half the price of fiber.
Because most commercial buildings already have copper phone...

Some DSL Broadband definitions
Some DSL Broadband definitions, Often too many people get confused with all the definitions, here we have explained in easy to understand terms.ADSL:Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line - asymmetric meaning it's faster downstream than upstream.ASAM:Advanced Services Access Manager -Whether you have a DSLAM or ASAM in your exchange doesn't really matter. They do the same thing. See DSLAM's as well.ATM:Asynchronous Transfer Mode - a method of encapsulation which is capable of many virtual circuits. With these, providers (ISP's) can split an ATM connection (155Mbit or 622Mbit) up into many connections. ATM isn't just used for DSL but in the case of DSL it's used to provision each customer.Contention RatiosA contention ratio is the number of users to xMbit of bandwidth.
For example some providers offer 2Mbit DSL, with a ratio of 50:1, meaning 50 users to 1Mbit of bandwidth.CPECustomer Premises Equipment, the term that describes the equipment used on the customer end of a connection...
