receive signal level, signal-to-noise ratio, near end echo,
far end echo delay, and echo frequency offset. Values

displayed are approximations that may be affected by the
combination of impairments on the line.

FarEchDel, and EchoFreqOff
values appear only for V.34,

(dBm), the actual strength of
the incoming signal.

Sig/Noise

Signal-to-Noise Ratio
indicates, in decibels, the

echoed back by the local line
termination.

signal level, in decibels
referenced to one milliwatt
(dBm), of that portion of the
transmit signal which has been
echoed back by the remote
line termination.

FarEchDel

Far End Echo Delay indicates
the roundtrip delay in
milliseconds of the far end
echo.

EchoFreqOff

Echo Frequency Offset
indicates the frequency offset
of the far end echo.
