xDSL is not really something that a PM-3 can do. xDSL has to be
implemented on the copper connecting the customer to the telco
switch -- the equipment has to be located at the central office
switch. It seems that most implementations of it in place so far
have the telco providing the xDSL equipment and backhauling the
data to ISP's.
