DSL BROADBAND INTERNET SERVICES.

With the tremendous growth in Internet usage, the need to provide faster connection speed continues. Traditional technologies such as modems can often not give the desired increase in speed (bandwidth). Many new technologies are being developed with DSL that provides high-speed over existing telephone cabling becoming increasingly popular. Afghan Telecom has gained valuable experience and knowledge about DSL and we have deployed all the latest available technology and equipment to provide our customers with high-speed networks.

WHAT IS DSL INTERNET?

DSL refers to a class of technology used to obtain more bandwidth over existing copper telephone cabling running between a customer's premises and a telecom's central office. DSL allows simultaneous voice and high-speed data services such as superfast Internet access over a single pair of copper telephone wires.

WHAT IS SPECIAL ABOUT DSL INTERNET?

The cables connecting most households to the phone network are mainly simply twisted-pair copper wires, which have only been able to carry analog traffic. Modem speeds have gradually increased through the use of various compression and other techniques, but at today's fastest (56 Kbit/s) they are approaching the theoretical limit for this technology. DSL technology enables much higher speeds across the twisted pair lines from the Central Office to the home, school, or business. Speed up to 2 Megabits per second is achievable in some areas - 30 or more times faster than today's fastest modems. This means that some consumers and teleworkers will be able to use applications that need these higher speeds even if high-performance (fiber) cable networks are not available in their location.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CONNECTING TO THE INTERNET VIA DSL?

DSL can provide virtually instantaneous transmission of voice, data, and video over ordinary copper phone lines. A DSL connection can eliminate the frustrating delays associated when waiting to download information and graphics from the Internet. It provides residential subscribers with a cost-effective uninterrupted high-speed Internet connection. For schools, businesses, and branch offices, DSL provides fast access to mission-critical information on corporate Intranet servers and the Internet. Another significant benefit is that a DSL connection is always on-line (like a LAN connection) with no waiting.
