Siemens ADSL 50 - Manual (Page 5)

Chapter 1: Overview
Before You Use
The SANTIS ADSL 50/500 is an Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) Router. With the asymmetric
technology, this device runs over standard copper phone lines. In addition, ADSL allows you to have both voice and
data services in use simultaneously all over one phone line.
The SANTIS ADSL 50/500 is designed to offer cost-effective high-speed services for home or office users. It
provides a downstream rate of up to 8 Mbps and upstream rate of up to 1 Mbps for ADSL connection, even offers
auto-negotiation capability for different flavors (ANSI T1.413 Issue 2, G.lite, G.dmt for Annex A, G.dmt for Annex B
or G.hs) according to central office DSLAM’s settings (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer). Also the
feature-rich routing functions are seamlessly integrated to ADSL service for existing corporate or home users. Now
users can enjoy various bandwidth-consuming applications via the SANTIS ADSL Router.
