Information on VDSL Router

A VDSL router is used in VDSL broadband Internet access to separate a customer's local network from the VDSL network operator's network. In order to allow multiple network devices on the internal network to share a single IP address allocated by the VDSL ISP (Internet service provider), a VDSL router normally includes a NAT router. A VDSL router may provide a number of ports for the local network; one common configuration provides four 100baseT, 100 Mbps Ethernet lines.
     A VDSL router may be integrated with the VDSL modem. In configurations where VDSL is used to deliver a pay television service, the television set-top box may provide the VDSL modem.
