Joe the other guys will be able to give you more technical information. The splitter in the discussion you referenced has to do with g.lite. <<Except for those backing the splitterless approach, vendors believe a filter will be needed for certain subscribers' telephones to avoid unwanted interference from the ADSL signal. Since the ADSL subscriber modem will have a filter to clean out telephony signals, we are back to using a splitter at subscribers' premises, simply calling it something different and hoping subscribers can install it themselves. With this simple filter, full-speed ADSL may be just as attractive.>> With full rate DSL (CAP/DMT) they require a splitter at the home to split the voice and data. ADSL.lite is designed (if it works) to split voice/data at the remote. Removing the need for the phone company to come to your home to install the DSL modem. If this adsl.lite works and the industry can come up with a standard, The consumer would decide deployment. This would also save 3Coms butt; they would have a product to pump in their tremendous retail channel (You ever wonder why the guy at USRX bailed out on his co). The jest of the above paragraph is that ADSL.lite isn't working like they thought. ADSL.lite is requiring a splitter at the house to keep the data talk from bleeding in to voice. Crosstalk in the bundle has been bantered around quite abit with the DMT/CAP religous types. The truth is CAP has been more wide deployed than DMT. I am sure Bell Atlantic is aware of the issues. Bill c., Hal or anyone feel free to pitch in here
