ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Loop)
ADSL connects millions of home Subscribers to the internet at megabits/sec
Rates over the same telephone local loop that is used for plain old telephone service.
In Sec. 2.5.3, we described how a device called a DSL modem is added on the home side. It sends bits over the local loop to a device called a DSLAM (DSL Access Multiplexer), pronounced "dee-slam," in the telephone company's local office.
