Getting To Know Your Prestige 
1.3  Applications for the Prestige 650 
1.3.1 Internet Access 
The Prestige is the ideal high-speed Internet access solution. Your Prestige supports the TCP/IP protocol, 
which the Internet uses exclusively. It is compatible with all major ADSL DSLAM  (Digital Subscriber 
Line Access Multiplexer) providers.  A DSLAM is a rack of ADSL line cards with data multiplexed into a 
backbone network interface/connection (for example, T1, OC3, DS3, ATM or Frame Relay). Think of it as 
the equivalent of a modem rack for ADSL. A typical Internet Access application is shown below.

For a SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) environment, your Prestige offers the Single User Account (SUA) 
feature that allows multiple users on the LAN (Local Area Network) to access the Internet concurrently for 
the cost of a single IP address. 
1.3.2  LAN to LAN Application 
You can use the Prestige to connect two geogr
aphical
ly dispersed networks over the ADSL line.  A typical 
LAN-to-LAN application for your Prestige is shown as follows.
