<The CDSL solution will fit into the existing voice racking? For
example, the CDSL line card will fit into the existing LU 5ESS voice
platform with no splitters. POTS and this CDSL traffic will reside on
the VOICE network and isn't split off onto a DATA network. I'm I off on this line of thinking?>

Don't forget, ATT/LU 5ESS (and other more recent switches) are digital. This offers "embedded" or digital POTS, so no surprise here. The ability that CDSL is proposing, to interface directly with telco switches without going through an access multiplexer, is another advantage to CDSL over ADSL (providing they actually do what they say they are doing).

<Does the CDSL stay connected all the time? Can the voice network handle the load? Aren't we back to upgrading the voice network for this long connect times.>

Good question, I don't know. I spoke with a ROK engineer earlier, and will try get clarification soon. Maybe a Netspeed dig-off-hook-like design will be involved.

<Voice connections were engineered for 3 minute calls not 2 hour CDSL connects>

Just guessing here (will ask) : if we add a modem linecard, it seems that CDSL will avoid burdening the voice PSTN 4:1 ratio - the only thing that needs be preserved to avoid a circuit busy.

<PS. Just take a step back to understand Aware's lite-adsl and ROK's
CDSL solution with no splitters.... until later.>

I'm interesting in how this is implemented also. One engineer asked me what I had heard about it, postulating that it must not take into account the CP wiring "rat's nest". All good questions.
