Adding ADSL Line Profiles

You add ADSL line profiles from the

ADSL Line Profile Table

window.

1

In the

Rate Mode

box, select the desired rate mode (

Fixed Rate

or

Adapted Rate at Startup

).

The rate mode defines the form of transmit rate adaptation.

Fixed Rate

means the loop must

be able to come up at the specified maximum transmit rate (

Step 4

), or it does not come up

at all.

Adapted Rate at Startup

means the loop will come up at the highest achievable rate that

is greater than the specified minimum transmit rate (

Step 3

) but less than the specified

maximum transmit rate (

Step 4

).

2

In the

Upstream

and

Downstream

Target Margin

boxes, type the target signal-to-noise margin.

This is the noise margin, in decibels/10, that the modem must achieve with a BER of 10

-7

or better to successfully complete initialization. The typical value for the target margin
is 60. A lower target margin may achieve a higher data rate, but increases noise on the line.

3

If you set the

Rate

Mode

to

Adapted Rate at Startup,

in the

Upstream

and

Downstream

Interleave

Min Tx Rate

boxes, type the minimum transmit rate for interleave channels in kbps.

Otherwise, skip this step.

This is the guaranteed minimum transmission rate for all lines to which this profile is
applied.

4

In the

Upstream

and

Downstream

Interleave Max Tx Rate

boxes, type the maximum transmit

rate for interleave channels in kbps.

This is the highest transmission rate to which the modem can adapt for all lines to which
this profile is applied.

5

In the

Upstream

and

Downstream

Max Interleave Depth

boxes, type the interleave depth in

milliseconds.

The interleave depth specifies the delay between consecutive bytes. Larger delays result in
improved noise immunity, but increase transmission delay. A depth of 16 milliseconds is
ideal for maximum noise immunity. However, a depth of 4 to 6 milliseconds is
recommended to achieve maximum transmission speeds.
