ADSL
Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) is a broadband network technology that utilizes standard
twisted-pair copper wire telephone lines to enable broadband high-speed digital data transmission and
bandwidth hungry applications for business and residential customers.
ADSL routers and modems provide faster downloads and more reliable connectivity to the user without loss
of quality or disruption of voice/fax telephone capabilities.
ADSL service operates at speeds of up to 24 Mbps downstream and up to 1 Mbps upstream. A secure
dedicated point-to-point connection is established between the user and the central office of the service
provider.
