Don't know, but Wang says he needs to have a 1e-5 or better BER. That is
a pretty loose spec. I believe DSL links are speced at about 1e-7 or
thereabouts. If he can live with a degraded BER then maybe the DSL chip
solution could work... (or not). Not sure how fast the BER will fall
off as link loss increases without doing the numbers or looking at a
waterfall curve. (If there is FEC involved the fall off will be steeper).
