SOHO Router Series
ADSL Router for SOHO Networks
DSL-500
Key Features
This remote router features 1 ADSL WAN port, 1Ethernet
LAN port, IP routing, transparent bridge, NAT/DHCP Internet 
gateway functions. 
With the DSL-500 ADSL  router, gaining the speed for your network has never been simpler and more 
cost-efficient.  Offering superior connectivity than traditional analog connection, this router is designed 
to provide megabit access for interactive video, high speed data communication and Internet access for 
small office users. 
Up to 8Mbps Speed
IP Routing and VPN
NAT and DHCP Support 
The ADSL interface features a DMT full rate for 
downstream of up to 8Mbps and upstream of up to 
640Kbps.  G.lite rate for downstream is up to 1.5Mbps 
and upstream is up to 512Kbps, high enough for most 
Internet applications today.  G.lite support eliminates the 
need to install a splitter for the phone rate.  The ADSL 
port auto-senses the installed rate and auto-negotiates 
between the full rate and G.lite.
 
The router supports IP packet routing over the WAN, in 
addition to transparent bridging.  
The router provides cost-saving Internet functions like 
NAT and DHCP.  Network Address Translator (NAT) 
allows multiple LAN users to share a single ISP account.  
DHCP automatically assigns IP address for LAN users.
 
Maximum Utilization of Resources
Uses Existing Telephone Line
ADSL enables simultaneous use of voice and data 
transmission.  Regular telephone services use a 
minimal portion of the actual capacity of the telephone 
lines, while ADSL uses the remaining bandwidth for 
high-speed data transfer.  This utilization is 
accomplished by setting different frequency channels 
for different functions, so that voice communication 
happens at the lower end of the frequency spectrum, 
while data transmission takes place at a higher 
frequency.
The ADSL interface operates on the existing installed 
twisted-pair copper telephone wire and does not 
require new transmission media such as fiber optic 
cable.  ADSL enables high-speed multimedia services, 
Internet access and video conferencing for everyone 
using a standard, copper phone line.
   
ADSL is always on once it is installed.  There is no 
need to dial up to establish a connection to an ISP or to 
a corporate LAN.
