Connecting an ISDN Splitter
This device keeps the ISDN and ADSL signals separated, giving them the capability to provide
simultaneous Internet access and ISDN service on the same line. Splitters also eliminate the destructive
interference conditions caused by telephone sets. The purchase of an ISDN splitter is optional.
Noise generated from a telephone in the same frequency range as the ADSL signal, can disrupt the ADSL
signal. In addition the impedance of a telephone when off-hook may be so low that it shunts the strength of
the ADSL signal. When an ISDN splitter is installed at the entry point, where the line comes into the home,
it will filter the ISDN signals before combining the ADSL and ISDN signals transmitted and received. The
issues of noise and impedance are eliminated with a single ISDN splitter installation.
An ISDN splitter is easy to install as shown in the following figure.
