AT&T U-verse is a VDSL service offered by AT&T in various parts of the United States. It provides broadband internet access, TV, and phone through a fiber-to-the-node communications network.
As of December 9, 2009, U-verse Internet had 2 million customers (up 100% in last year). U-verse is available to 20 million living units in 22 states.
ServicesU-verse TVU-verse TV is delivered via IPTV from the head-end to the consumer's Total Home DVR or standard set-top box. U-verse uses H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC) encoding which compresses video more efficiently than the traditional MPEG-2 codec. Broadcast channels are distributed via IP multicast, allowing a single stream (channel) to be sent to any number of recipients. The system is also designed for individual unicasts for video on demand, central time shifting, start-over services and other programs desired by only one home at that particular time. The set-top box does not have a conventional tuner, but is an IP multicast client which requests the stream desired. In the IP multicast model, only the streams the customer uses are sent. The customer's connection need not have the capacity to carry all available channels simultaneously.U-verse InternetInternet service is provided to computers connected to the on-premises ethernet cabling or a HomePNA residential gateway. U-verse Internet is available either bundled with AT&T's home phone service or as dry loop DSL. The raw speed tiers that are offered are as follows:
