4.14 Router 1/2-Port ADSL FIC

4.14.1 Introduction

Router 1/2-Port ADSL FIC, the 1-/2-port ADSL over PSTN interface card, allows a LAN
subscriber to connect to the digital subscriber's loop access multiplexer (DSLAM) at
the central office over a regular analog subscriber line or telephone line. Thus, the
subscriber can access the ATM/IP backbone or the Internet to enjoy services such as
high-speed data communication and video on demand (VoD).
ADSL transmits data in the high frequency band above 26 kHz. Therefore, it can
provide services without interfering with the voice service being provided in the low
frequency band (0 to 4 kHz) on the same line. It provides downlink rates in the range
32 kbps to 8 Mbps and uplink rates in the range 32 kbps to 1 Mbps.
The ADSL interface cards provide these functions:
Manual ADSL line activation and deactivation, supporting SAR loopback for
convenient fault isolation.
Interface standards of G. DMT, G. Lite, and T1.413, auto-sensing.
Trellis coding (except for G. Lite) on ADSL interfaces, enhancing stability of ADSL
connections.
