| What does that mean? |
| Originally it meant a dry copper pair of wiring (Dry Signal Line) and now commonly is considered digital subscriber line. This broadband connection uses the space for signals outside of the voice range to carry signals back to the network. Many cases are 896K (kilobits) upload speed and 7 MB (megabits) download. This 896k speed upload is key to the advantage of ADSL compared to competing broadband offerings which run at half of this speed. |
