Definitions of ADSL:

symmetric Digital Subscriber Line is a technology for transmitting digital information at a high bandwidth on existing phone lines to homes and businesses. ADSL is asymmetric in the sense that it uses most of the channel to transmit downstream to the user and only a small part to receive information from the user.

Short for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line, a technology that allows more data to be sent over existing copper telephone lines. ADSL supports data rates of from 1.5 to 9 Mbps when receiving data (known as the downstream rate) and from 16 to 640 Kbps when sending data (known as the upstream rate).

A DSL line where the upload speed is different from the download speed. Usually the download speed is much greater.

(Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Loop). High speed Internet access using the telephone line. It uses line-adaptive modulation and provides data speeds from 384kbps to 1.5 Mbps (upstream and downstream speeds are usually different). Unlike the dial up, it doesn't block the telephone line.

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line: Modems attached to twisted pair copper wiring that transmit from 1.5Mbps to 9Mbps downstream (to the subscriber) and from 16Kbps to 800Kbps upstream, depending on line distance.

The variation called ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) is the form of DSL that will become most familiar to home and small business users. ADSL is called "asymmetric" because most of its two-way or duplex bandwidth is devoted to the downstream direction, sending data to the user. Only a small portion of bandwidth is available for upstream or user-interaction messages. ...

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line. Delivers and receives information on current telephone lines at higher bandwidth speeds. ADSL is a new form of Internet connection rapidly growing in the US.

(Asymmetric digital subscriber line) ADSL is the most widely deployed form of DSL technology. Most homes and small businesses currently using DSL technology use ADSL.

ADSL offers differing upload and download speeds and can be configured to deliver up to 6 Mbps from the network to the customer that is up to 120 times faster than dialup service and 100 times faster than ISDN. ADSL enables both voice and high speed data to be sent simultaneously over existing phone lines. This type of DSL is the most predominant in commercial use for business and residential customers around the world. ...

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) -- A method for moving data over regular phone lines. An ADSL circuit is much faster than a regular phone connection, and the wires coming into the subscriber's premises are the same (copper) wires used for regular phone service. An ADSL circuit must be configured to connect two specific locations, similar to a leased line. ...

ADSL stands for Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Line, and is a way of making use of existing analogue telephone lines to provide high-speed digital Internet access. As the connection is asynchronous, the download speed is typically higher than the upload speed, with upload speeds typically limited to around 256kb/s, despite download speeds of up to 2Mb/s
www.broadband.adopto-internet.com/glossary.html
ADSL is a data communications technology that can “piggyback” a standard voice telephone connection and a high-speed (up to 8Mbps) digital data link on to a single pair local loop connections to a customer premises. ADSL technology is an asymmetric technology, meaning that the speed of the digital link to a customer premises is generally not the same speed as the connection coming back. ...

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line: Technology that allows data to be sent over existing copper phone lines. An ADSL connection is ten times faster than a standard phone modem connection.
www.areva.co.uk/Glossary/glossary_a.htm
(Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) A data communications technology that transmits data over existing copper telephone lines to the customer's home and/or business. Requires modems at either end. Different from other types of DSL; information is sent faster in one direction than the other (asymmetric).
www.lucent.com/search/glossary/a-definitions.html
French: ligne numérique à paires asymétriques A technology in which high-capacity transmission requirements, such as compressed video signals are delivered through copper wire. In this case, "asymmetric" refers to the transmission capacity toward the customer being greater than that from the customer to the network.

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line. A high-speed transmission technology using existing twisted-pair lines that permits simultaneous POTS and high-speed data communication. A much higher data rate is employed downstream than upstream.

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line. High bandwidth network technology that transmits at a higher rate in one direction than the other. Uses standard POTS wiring for bandwidths up to several Mbps.

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line. Modems using twisted pair copper wiring to transmit data asymmetrically. Data rates depend on distance, but maximum is 9 Mbits/s downstream and 800 kbits/s upstream.
www.scottygroup.com/glossary
Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line – A high-speed connection, usually to the Internet, using modems attached to twisted pair copper wiring. The download channel allows speeds from 1.5 Mbps to 9 Mbps and the upload channel allows you to transmit files between 16 kbps to 800 kbps. Speeds depend on distance from the telephone company’s central office, with approximately 3 miles being the furthest distance. Home and office users beyond this distance, are generally unable to get ADSL.
www.novacon.com/faq.htm
Acronym for 'asymmetric digital subscriber line.' A fairly new technology that permits rapid transfer of information over regular telephone lines; far more information than permitted by an ISDN connection or a regular modem. It is called 'assymetric' because the technology allows the user to receive information at a considerably higher rate than he or she can send back out. (6 Mbps to the user and 640 Kbps from the user.)

Asymmetic Digital Subscriber Line. A digital line that uses the existing twisted pair copper telephone network to achieve speeds of up to 6 megabits per second up to 12000 feet, or 1.5 megabits per second up to 18000 feet.
www.56k.com/glossary.shtml
Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line. A technology and standard to enable much higher bitrates between telephone company central offices and homes over the already installed copper telephone lines. One of a family of such technologies and standards collectively referred to as xDSL. May provide sufficient bandwidth for network video to homes.
