SDSL folks-

Certainly there will be a day where FCC has published rules for SDSL, HDSL,
ADSL, and any other xDSL, but does it behoove a manufacturer to bother with
the whole testing/approval/FCC waiver process at this point?  For
manufacturers the already have xDSL products on the market, will they be
required to go through FCC Registration once the rules are published? 

As snipped from a third-party test house quote, can anyone support or deny
the below statement?

SDSL was not required to be tested to FCC Part 68 requirements last year or
even today.   However, it will be required for SDSL lines any day now.   We
are waiting for FCC to
announce the requirement. If we are doing the Canadian testing for SDSL now,
the additional FCC requirements are much less. Your choice, but keep in
mind, that this will be a
requirement.  Most likely before the testing on your product is completed
for Canada.
