Hotwire
SDSL) products maximize customer service areas by varying the DSL line rate.
This ensures symmetric DSL connectivity over a wide range of telephone line
distances and transmission line qualities. Hotwire 2-wire TDM SDSL products
transmit data over 14,000 feet (4.6 km) at rates up to 2.048 Mbps.
Hotwire products support autorate. Units first synchronize to the highest line rate
that the 2-wire loop supports, then automatically configures the unit to the highest
multiple of 64 Kbps supported by that line rate. Eight line rates are available. At all
rates, an 8 Kbps management channel is available, which enables functions such
as firmware downloads to remote units. Units can also be configured manually to
full or fractional T1 or E1 rates.
