New York City DSL

Description

Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) technology uses existing copper telephone wiring to deliver high-speed data services to businesses and homes. In its various forms - including ADSL, HDSL, IDSL, R-ADSL, SDSL, and VDSL - DSL offers users a choice of speeds ranging from 32 Kbps to, in laboratory settings, more than 50 Mbps. These digital services will ultimately be used to deliver bandwidth-intensive applications like video on demand and distance learning. More immediately, today DSL is for the first time putting high-speed Internet access within the reach of small and medium-size businesses.

DSL takes existing voice cables that connect customer premises to the phone company's central office (CO) and turns them into a high-speed digital link. Over any given link, the maximum DSL speed is determined by the distance between the customer site and the CO.

At the customer premises, a DSL modem connects the phone line to either a standalone computer or a local-area network (LAN). This DSL equipment differs from other Internet access devices in two key respects: It requires no end-user configuration, and it is not a dial-up solution. Once installed, the DSL modem provides the customer site with continuous connection to the Internet.
