What is the HotWire DSLAM?

The HotWire Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) is a DSL platform, which houses 18 DSL cards (8540 DSL cards, 8546 DSL cards, or a combination of both). The DSLAM interoperates with multiple types of HotWire Remote Termination Units (RTU) to deliver applications at multimegabit speed in support of packet services over a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) link.

The 8540 DSL card interoperates with the following HotWire RTUs:

H5170 RTU

H5171 Remote PC Network Interface Card (NIC)

H5216

H5246 RTU

The 8546 DSL card interoperates with the following HotWire RTU:

H5446 RTU

High-speed service traffic types from the DSL links are groomed and then concentrated for efficient forwarding to backbone routers. By enabling very high speeds using DSL technology and then concentrating Internet Protocol (IP) traffic, greater performance is realized. Backbone service nodes can be placed deeper into the network, dramatically improving the economics of service provisioning while taking advantage of the substantial speed increases of DSL.

In addition, the HotWire DSLAM with a HotWire RTU can be multiplexed with Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) over the same copper line providing simultaneous usage of POTS and digital applications. That is, the optional POTS splitters (HotWire 5020 Central Office POTS Splitter and HotWire 5030 or 5034 Customer Premises POTS Splitter) allow simultaneous voice and data connections over a standard telephone line.

The following illustration shows a typical HotWire configuration connection using either an 8540 or 8546 DSL card in the DSLAM to a HotWire 5170, 5171, 5216, 5246, or 5446 RTU.
