Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line

Symmetric digital subscriber line (SDSL) can have two meanings:

  • In the wider sense it is a collection of Internet access technologies based on DSL that offer symmetric bandwidth upstream and downstream. It is considered the opposite of asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) technologies where the upstream bandwidth is lower than the downstream bandwidth.
  • In the narrow sense SDSL is a particular DSL variant that supports data only on a single line and does not support analog calls.

Famous quotes containing the word line:

    “Next to the originator of a good sentence is the first quoter of it. Many will read the book before one thinks of quoting a passage. As soon as he has done this, that line will be quoted east and west.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
