What is DSL technology?
The acronym DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line. This new technology allows the high-speed transport of data to be sent over existing twisted copper telephone lines. There are many different types of DSL Internet service. Pacific Bell offers ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line). The ADSL product options will support information transfer rates of between 384 Kbps and 1.5 Mbps downstream (from Pacific Bell Internet Services to a customer) and 128 Kbps upstream (from a customer to Pacific Bell Internet Services), or between 1.5 and 6 Mbps downstream and 384 Kbps upstream. This is referred to as the “Access Speed,” which is between the customer’s location and the DSL-equipped Central Office or Gateway. DSL Internet Service is not available in all areas due to factors associated with DSL technology such as line conditions or distance. Actual speeds will vary.
