European broadband operator B2 will deploy VDSL2 technology to deliver triple play services - Internet, IP telephony and IPTV - over a high-performance broadband architecture based on IP/Ethernet technology. The VDSL2 system is planned to be in operation in October this year.

VDSL2 is the next major DSL technology and the first to allow for Ethernet end-to-end architectures, which will simplify networks. The early availability of VDSL2 systems lets operators experience the performance of VDSL2 first hand, and will be key to advancing vendor interoperability testing processes in 2006.
