A device that separates an xDSL communications stream into its POTS and data components, offering a standard POTS connection such as an RJ-11 jack in the U.S., and an Ethernet or ATM connection, such as an RJ-45 jack. See also Low-Pass Filter, High-Pass Filter, Splitterless.
A Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) splitter, also known as a low-pass/high-pass filter, separates the voice and data portions of the DSL line. Current DSL technology requires two POTS splitters: one in our central office and one in the customer's premises.
a low pass filter that separates analog voice from DSL frequencies
A device that uses filters to separate voice from data signals when they are to be carried on the same phone line, required for several types of DSL service.
A frequency-based filter that separates (or combines) voice signals and data signals travelling on the same telephone line.
A device that separates the POTS information from the DSL information. Because DSL and POTS share the same line, it is necessary to keep the two signals from interfering with each other. A POTS Splitter or a Microfilter can be used to accomplish this task.
A POTS splitter also known as a low-pass/high-pass filter is what allows you to talk on the phone (or use the fax machine) and surf the Web at the same time with High Speed Internet. This device separates the voice portion of the High Speed Internet line from the portion that will carry the High Speed Internet data--two wires activate phone jacks and another two wires activate data jacks. The splitter at the telephone company's CO allows for separate POTS and High Speed Internet signals which go to the PSTN and the DSLAM respectively. Both splitters must be present and compatible to allow for simultaneous voice and data transmission--so the High Speed Internet modem you receive at installation comes with a splitter compatible with our network.
