The ReachDSL technology:
Operates over existing copper wire with existing telephone jacks.
Utilizes an inline phone filter on the modem’s PHONE jack.
Includes a second line pass-through from the ReachDSL modem’s LINE jack to
PHONE jack to accommodate an attached 2-line telephone. Provides adaptive data rates to dynamically adapt and allocate bandwidth to
optimize applications.

Phone Filter

Depending on the type of pho ne handset and the qual ity of the home or busi ness wiring, a phone filter is recommended to minimize background noise during a phone conversation. An internal phone filter is included with the Hotwire 6350 ReachDSL Modem. If additional telephones are used on the same phone line as the ReachDSL modem, install one phone filter on each telephone.
There are two Hotwire phone filters:
Hotwire 6035 Universal Phone Filter is designed for use with a tabletop phone.
Hotwire 6040 Wall Jack Phone Filter is designed for use with a wall phone.
