1.2 Setting up the SpeedTouch™
ADSL service
The appropriate DSL service must be available at your premises:
ADSL service must be enabled on your telephone line.
As both telephone and ADSL service are simultaneously available from the
same copper pair, you will need a central splitter or distributed filters for
decoupling ADSL and telephone signals.
Support of the latest
ADSL standards
The SpeedTouch™ supports the latest ADSL standards:
ADSL2
RE-ADSL
ADSL2+
and is backward compatible with ADSL.
ADSL2
ADSL2 (ITU G.992.3 and G.992.4), being the successor of the well-known ADSL
standard, adds new features and functionality targeted at improving performance
and interoperability, and adds support for new applications, services and
deployment scenarios. Among the changes are:
Improvements in data rate up to 12 Mbps and reach performance.
Rate adaption.
Diagnostics.
Stand-by mode.
RE-ADSL
Reach Extended ADSL (RE-ADSL) (ITU G.992.L) is an extension to ADSL2 that
allows to significantly extend the reach of throughput capabilities.
ADSL2+
ADSL2+ (ITU G.992.5) is an extension to the ADSL2 standard that goes even further
in offering optimal broadbanding; it nearly doubles the maximum ADSL
downstream data rates to up to 24 Mbps.
Connect the DSL line
The grey DSL port on the SpeedTouch™ is marked
.
Use the grey DSL cable provided to wire the SpeedTouch™ DSL port to your
