Introducing
DSL Turbo 900
This section gives a brief introduction of DSL Turbo 900 features and
its specifications.
1.1 Overview
Congratulations on your purchase of DSL Turbo 900!
DSL Turbo 900 is an External Bridge Modem that uses the latest communication
technology, ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) to offer faster and
uninterrupted Internet access. It allows use of real-time, interactive multimedia
and broadcast-quality for services such as video-on-demand, collaborative
computing and distance learning.
DSL Turbo 900 is capable of data rate in both Full-Rate and G.Lite, with Full Rate
transmission at up to 8 Mbps downstream, 640 Kbps upstream1 and G.Lite
transmission at up to 1.5 Mbps downstream, 512 Kbps upstream1. Major features
include the following:
ADSL Protocols Support
To ensure the broadest customer reach, DSL Turbo 900 features multiple data
encapsulation formats for DSL transport over ATM PVCs, including the widely
supported ADSL protocol RFC 1483 (Ethernet Over ATM).
Compatibility (Interoperability)
Multimode ADSL support: ANSI T1.143 Issue 2, ITU-T G.992.1 (G.dmt) and
G.992.2 (G.Lite). DSL Turbo 900 uses discrete Multi-tone (DMT) line encoding
scheme which is also used by major ADSL equipment manufacturers, thus further
guarantees interoperability with network service providers worldwide.

The actual downstream and upstream rates will depend on the service package offered by your
ADSL Service Provider.
