Siemens Helps Build T-Com's New High-Speed Network

With transmission speeds of up to 50 megabits per second, Deutsche Telekom's new broadband network will provide sufficient capacity reserves even for bandwidth-hungry services such as television broadcasts thanks to equipment supplied by Siemens Communications.

T-Com, the fixed network division of Deutsche Telekom AG, plans to initially invest 500 million euros into the construction of a high-speed network. The project includes the use of VDSL2 (Very Fast Digital Subscriber Line) technology, an advanced version of today's popular DSL technology. The first stage will extend the network to ten German cities. As a major T-Com partner, Siemens will supply the world's first fully standard-compliant VDSL2 systems. The network components from the Siemens Surpass product portfolio will enable T-Com to offer top-quality television and video services to its customers over DSL lines.
