We can add this to the equation.

The prototype product provides the outside ADSL network access to the subscriber's home or office networks while meeting the challenging environmental design requirements for telecommunications equipment. It provides voice/data separation at an externally mounted NID through a device known as a POTS splitter.

A splitter circuit designed by Amati for ADSL trials has been combined with Raychem's engineering and manufacturing expertise to create a system capable of withstanding harsh environmental conditions. A key advantage provided by this network interface system which will be available as part of Raychem's network interface products is that subscribers can easily upgrade their existing internal home or office networks for high-bandwidth ADSL communications. . . .

Raychem Corporation Raychem Corporation of Menlo Park, California, is an international company with approximately 8,700 employees in more than 45 countries and sales of $1.7 billion in fiscal 1996.

<<< What's involved installing a splitter?>>>

Bill--

You have to understand that a splitter - no matter how easy to install - means a truck roll. That means additional labor expense for a telco as well as another potential problem area. Telcos hate truck rolls. Splitterless technology could be a real boon for those who get into it.
