<< There are typically 4 telephone lines connected to each line card on the PSTN. If more than 25% of a CO's territory picks up there phone at the same time, you'll get a circuit busy. >> i thought line card slots were at a premium also, otherwise the telco would just add more line cards and relieve the contention for dialtone. if a CDSL card offers only one voice line per card, will its revenue potential vs. adding another 4-line voice card justify the investment? if it offers no voice line? << will ALSO plug interchangeably into any DSLAM >> i must've missed the announcement of an industry standard for DSLAMs that would make this possible. mark
