    Glossary Glossary ADSL abbreviation for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line ADSL (G.992.1/G992.2) was developed on the basis of DSL technology in order to satisfy the increasing demand for higher throughput rates during uploading and down- loading. It designates a fast kind of data transmission that works with standard copper cables and transports signals in both directions at different speeds (upstream at 640 Kbit/s and downstream at up to 9 Mbit/s).
  • Page 169 Glossary ADSL2+ offers a doubled frequency range used for down- stream transmission, and thus double the maximum bandwidth achievable for downstream to 24 Mbit/s. ADSL2+ is completely downward compatible, meaning that terminal equipment compliant with ADSL and ADSL2 can also be operated on ADSL2+ lines, although they can- not exploit the advantages of ADSL2+.
