HDSL High bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line -
an xDSL technology in which modems on either end of two or
more twisted pair lines deliver symmetric T1 and 2 MBIT/S (E1) speeds. Currently, T1 requires two lines and
2 MBIT/S (E1) requires three.
ISDN-
Integrated Services Digital Network
Load Coil
- An induction device employed in local loops exceeding 18,000 feet in length, that compensates
for wire capacitance and boosts voice grade frequencies. Load coils prevent high frequencies from passing
through so they must be removed to allow xDSL technologies to operate on the local loop.
Local Loop -
The line from the subscriber to the telephone company central office exchange
Multi-Point
- A configuration that supports multiple terminal equipment devices.

PSTN
- Public Switched Telephone Network
S/T Interface
The standard 4 wire (2 Rx, 2 Tx) ISDN interface used by ISDN terminals. It is the physical
interface on the terminal side of the NT1.
TE

telephone, PBX, TV, PC, etc.
