LU enters xDSL w/ a new xDSL chip
Lucent announces chip that allows voice, data on
single line

Lucent Technologies Inc. said today that it introduced a computer chip that will
allow home computer users to receive phone calls while they are logged onto
the Internet. The new digital subscriber-line chip, or DSL, converts analog
telephone lines into more versatile digital lines without installing additional
telephone wiring or equipment on a computer, the Murray Hill, N.J.-based
communications-equipment maker said. A DSL chip modem can download
data 30 times faster than current analog modems when a computer is
connected to the Internet through a DSL interface at a telephone central office,
Lucent said. The company said its new chip, available later this year, will allow
computer users to leave their computers connected to the Internet while
receiving voice calls on the same line.
