ONFIGURING THE ARRICADE ADSL ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) is designed to deliver more bandwidth downstream (from the central office to the customer site) than upstream. This section is used to configure the ADSL operation type and shows the ADSL status. ADSL Parameters This screen is designed for the engineer to test the ADSL loop condition. - Page 106 ONFIGURATION PARAMETERS ADSL Status The Status screen displays information on connection line status, data rate, operation data and defect indication, and statistics. Parameter Description Status Line Status Shows the current status of the ADSL line connection. Data Rate Upstream Maximum upstream data rate. Downstream Maximum downstream data rate.
- Page 107 ONFIGURING THE ARRICADE Parameter Description Fast Path There are two latency paths that may be used: fast FEC Correction and interleaved. For either path, a forward error correction (FEC) scheme is employed to ensure higher data integrity. For maximum noise immunity, an interleaver may be used to supplement FEC.
