Frequently Asked Questions

Can I still use my telephone line if I have ADSL?

Yes! ADSL modems use digital coding techniques to squeeze up to 99% or more capacity out of a phone line without interfering with your regular phone services. That means you could be simultaneously talking on the phone or sending a fax - while surfing the World Wide Web. The two services (voice and data) operate independently of each other even though they are using the same telephone line.

How does ADSL work over my telephone line?

AlphaCall Telecommunications
ADSL broadband connection takes your existing telephone line and adds a dedicated computer link between the telephone exchange and your home. The connection uses a transmission coding protocol called Discrete Multi Tone (DMT), which operates at a frequency above that of normal voice, fax, or data transfer.

What happens to my telephone line when I convert to ADSL?

Icom-web - total internet solutions
The analogue (voice/phone) signal down the line from your local exchange to your premises is combined with the ADSL 'data' signal. Your existing BT wallbox is modified to include a splitter, which separates the voice and data signals again. The result is two sockets on the wallbox, one for your telephone and one for your ADSL.

Can I use ADSL on a fax line?

AAISP broadband internet
You can use a telephone line for telephone service (which includes fax and modem) at the same time as ADSL. You use a splitter to separate the telephone and ADSL service. This means that ADSL will not affect your fax. If used with modems, performance of 56K lines may not be as good.

Can I use ADSL on my ISDN line ?

Marconi Communications South Africa
Yes, the ADSL technology has been adapted to be used over a ISDN ( digital ) line. Because the ISDN uses more bandwidth than the normal POTS services, there will be less frequencies available for ADSL, which means the theoretical speed limit of ADSL will be lower over ISDN than over a normal line. Usually, the end-user won't feel the difference.

Why is ADSL much faster than Dial-up connection, although it uses the same telephone line?

TELEMEDIA GROUP
Similar modems transmit signals by means of a general use telephone network. It is the network to which ordinary telephone sets are connected. ADSL modems “adjust” their signals to a higher frequency band than the voice signal. As for the telephone station, the signal spectrum is divided – ordinary telephone calls are transmitted by means of the general use telephone network, while data is transmitted to the Internet.
