Applications for the Prestige 681

1.3.1 Internet Access

The Prestige is the ideal high-speed Internet access solution. Your Prestige supports the TCP/IP protocol,
which the Internet uses exclusively. It is compatible with all major SDSL DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line
Access Multiplexer) providers. A DSLAM is a rack of SDSL line cards with data multiplexed into a
backbone network interface/connection (e.g., T1, OC3, DS3, ATM or Frame Relay). Think of it as the
equivalent of a modem rack for SDSL. A typical Internet Access application is shown next.
