The ITU-T's New G. vector Standard Proliferates 100 Mb/s DSL

This article explores the recently issued ITU-T G. vector (G.993.5) {[}1] that allows expanded use of 100 Mb/s DSL. A tutorial description on G. vector's crosstalk noise reduction methods leads to specific projections and measurements of expanded DSL 100 Mb/s reach. A discussion on dynamic maintenance to enhance G. vector's practical application then concludes this article.
