ADSL Presentation

This document compares different internet access technologies including ADSL, VDSL, fiber to the home (FTTH), and discusses how ADSL works. ADSL exploits unused bandwidth on existing copper telephone lines using a frequency splitter to separate voice and data signals. ADSL speeds decrease with distance from the telephone exchange, with a maximum range of around 5.5 km over copper wires. Fiber optic technologies like FTTH can provide faster speeds without the distance limitations of copper lines.

KHz

ADSL works by using a frequency splitter device to


split a traditional voice telephone line into two
frequencies

ADSL Range
In general, the maximum range for DSL without a
repeater is 5.5 km
As distance decreases toward the telephone
company office, the data rate increases
