I've been doing some reading and research on how the analog phone signal + the dc power + ADSL signals all work (on a electronics & signals level) on the same set of copper wires. I've come across this document: http://www.epanorama.net/documents/telecom/adsl_filter.html and have a few questions. * First question. How does this work? How do the signals NOT interfere with each other on the line? * It appears that my phone line has only two wires. Is this a twisted pair? I'm guessing not because I don't see a third ground line. * If it's not twisted pair, how is ADSL able to operate at such high speeds (10 mbit/s) reliably? -- [ solarwind ] -- http://solar-blogg.blogspot.com/ -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
