New DSL Offering Combines Video, Data August 16, 1999

MPhase Technologies has started field trials of a technology that it claims allows telephone companies to simultaneously deliver high-speed Internet access, digital television and standard voice telephony over a single copper-wire phone line.

The Connecticut-based startup's Traverser digital video and data delivery system has entered trials in Hartwell, Ga. Besides home use, the company says that the technology could be used by businesses for tasks such as videoconferencing.

The system uses a type of DSL known as Rate Adaptive Digital Subscriber Line (RADSL), which allows high speed data transmission at speeds of 6 megabits per second downstream and up to 1 megabit upstream. MPhase said the technology can handle as many as 400 digital television channels.
