Abstract

The present invention encompasses the reception of a Very High Speed Digital Subscriber Line (VDSL) signal from a twisted wire pair drop cable and an amplification circuit for compensating losses encountered while the signal is traversing the transmission medium. The amplification circuit receives a control signal from a microcontroller for providing selective gain to the signal based on the loop length or the power of the received signal. The amplification circuit incudes at least one resonator circuit which can be selectively switched in and out of the amplification circuit.
