ADSL Modem (/ADSL option only)
965DSP models which include the ADSL modem 
function are identified by the /ADSL option on 
their Welcome screens. The Welcome screens for 
the 965DSP/ADSL and 965DSP/SA/ADSL are 
shown below.
Use the ADSL modem feature to establish a link 
with a DSL Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) in the 
central office or remote cabinet and determine the 
ADSL data rate that the pair will support. 
The internal ADSL modem in the 965DSP 
complies with international standards such as 
G.DMT (ITU G.992.1 Annex A), G.Lite (ITU 
G.992.2), and ANSI T1.413 II. It will connect with 
DSLAM’s that are similarly compliant. 
Connect the red and black leads to the pair. 
The ADSL modem in the 965DSP is used as 
the customer premises equipment (CPE). Data 
directions are referenced as Upstream and 
Downstream. Downstream is the direction from the 
DSLAM to the CPE (965DSP). Upstream is the 
direction from the 965DSP back to the DSLAM.
Press the ADSL Setup key to select the type of 
ADSL connection and Pass/Fail thresholds or else 
press the [Enter] key to connect.
