Westell Launches ADSL2, ADSL2+ and Reach Extended ADSL2 Modems

Westell Technologies expanded its family of WireSpeed modems with two new distinct product lines based on the new ITU standards for ADSL2, ADSL2+ and Reach Extended ADSL2 (READSL). The rollout includes a "ProLine" of modems featuring Westell's patent-pending Dynamic Multi-Hybrid and Power Spectral Density technologies, which help service providers overcome troublesome issues associated with in-home wiring and bridged taps that may affect service delivery and performance. A "WireSpeed LiteLine" is a lower cost option. The new products are currently undergoing testing in customer labs and will be available for volume shipment in October. ADSL2, ADSL2+ and Reach Extended ADSL2 (READSL) will be available via a software upgrade in January 2004.
