DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) is a modem technology for broadband data access over ordinary copper telephone lines (POTS) from homes and businesses. xDSL refers collectively to all types of DSL, such as ADSL (and G.Lite), HDSL, SDSL, IDSL and VDSL etc. They are sometimes referred to as last-mile (or first mile) technologies because they are used only for connections from a telephone switching station to a home or office, not between switching stations.<br \/>\nxDSL is similar to ISDN in as much as both operate over existing copper telephone lines (POTS) using sophisticated modulation schemes and both require the short runs to a central telephone office<br \/>\nGraphic below from: <a href=\"http:\/\/computer.howstuffworks.com\/vdsl3.htm\" title=\"External link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/computer.howstuffworks.com\/vdsl3.htm<\/a><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/exampracticetests.com\/ISC\/SSCP\/wp-content\/uploads\/exam\/__Page_482_Image_0001.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nDSL speed chart The following are incorrect answers: Single-line Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL) deliver 2.3 Mbps of bandwidth each way.<br \/>\nHigh-rate Digital Subscriber Line (HDSL) deliver 1.544 Mbps of bandwidth each way.<br \/>\nVery-high data-rate Digital Subscriber Line (VDSL) can deliver up to 52 Mbps downstream over a single copper twisted pair over a relatively short distance (1000 to 4500 feet).
