What is a Hotwire 8373/8374 RADSL Card?
A Hotwire
®
Rate Adaptive Digital Subscriber Line (RADSL) card is a circuit card
assembly that contains 12 ports, an interface to the Network Service Provider
(NSP), and a processor. The processor controls the RADSL ports and forwards
the packet traffic to and from the uplink and RADSL interfaces.
When the RADSL card is used in a Hotwire Digital Subscriber Line Access
Multiplexer (DSLAM) or 8820 GranDSLAM chassis and connected to a Hotwire
5620 Remote Termination Unit (RTU) or 6371 DSL Router, it provides high-speed
Internet or intranet access over traditional twisted-pair telephone wiring.
