DSL filter - Wikipedia
A DSL filter is an analog low-pass filter installed between analog devices (such as telephones or analog modems) and a POTS telephone line, in order to prevent interference between such devices and a DSL service operating on the same line. Without DSL filters, signals or echoes from analog devices at the top of their frequency range can result in reduced performance and connection problems with DSL service, while those from the DSL service at the bottom of its range can result in line noise and other issues for analog devices.
Typical installation for an existing home involves installing DSL filters on every telephone, fax machine, voiceband modem, and other voiceband device in the home, leaving the DSL modem as the only unfiltered device. For wall mounted phones, the filter is in the form of a plate which hangs on the standard wall mount, and upon which the phone hangs in turn.
In cases where it is possible to run new cables, it can be advantageous to split the telephone line after it enters the home, installing a single DSL filter on one leg and running it to every jack in the home where an analog device will be in use, and dedicating the other (unfiltered) leg to the DSL modem. Some devices, such as monitored alarms and Telephone Devices for the Deaf, mainly certain older models using an acoustic coupler, may be hardwired and may not easily accept a DSL filter. Some of these devices can be successfully filtered with a DSL filter or splitter, especially if the hardwired connection is converted into a jacked connection.
DSL modems may have filtering circuitry built-in, to which the telephones and fax machines can be connected.
SNR Margin
5db or below =bad, no sync/intermittent sync
8db-13db = average - and no sync issues
14db-22db = very good
23db-28db = excellent
29db-35db = rare, can throw a rock at co/remote
Line Attenuation
ต่ำกว่า 20 = rare, great copper lines, close to co/remote
20-30 = excellent
30-40 = very good
40-60 = average
60-65 = poor
65 and above will have issues
ในกรณีที่มีค่า SNR Margin ต่ำ หรือมี Line Attenuation สูง ให้พิจารณาเรื่องดังต่อไปนี้
