CONFIGURING THE VOICE ADSL ROUTER

The following items are included on this information screen:

Parameter

Description

Status

 

Line Status

Shows the current status of the ADSL line connection.

Data Rate

 

Upstream

Maximum upstream data rate.

Downstream

Maximum downstream data rate.

Operation Data/Defect Indication

Noise Margin

Maximum upstream and downstream noise margin.

Output Power

Maximum fluctuation in the output power.

Attenuation

Maximum reduction in the strength of the upstream and

 

downstream signal.

Fast Path FEC Correction

There are two latency paths that may be used: fast and interleaved. For either path, a forward error correction (FEC) scheme is employed to ensure higher data integrity. For maximum noise immunity, an interleaver may be used to supplement FEC.

Interleaved Path FEC Correction

An interleaver is basically a buffer used to introduce a delay, allowing for additional error correction techniques to handle noise. Interleaving slows the data flow and may not be optimal for real-time signals such as video transmission.

Fast Path CRC Error

The number of Fast Path Cyclic Redundancy Check

 

errors.
