WHAT IS ADSL CONNECTION?


What does ADSL stand for?

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line. ADSL is a modem technology that transforms ordinary phone lines (also known as "twisted copper pairs") into high-speed digital lines for ultra-fast Internet access. ADSL also enables access to corporate networks for telecommuters. This new technology will, once permitted by regulatory authorities, also enable powerful interactive multimedia applications such as video conferencing, Internet Telephony and other multimedia rich Internet services.


How does ADSL work?

ADSL modems use digital coding techniques to squeeze up to 99% more capacity out of a phone line without interfering with your regular phone services. That means you could be simultaneously talking on the phone or sending a fax - while surfing the World Wide Web.

What are the main benefits of ADSL?

- Simultaneous Internet and voice/fax capabilities over a single telephone line
- Uninterrupted, high-speed Internet access that's always on-line
- Cost-effective for residential customers, telecommuters and businesses
- Data Security that exceeds other technologies
