Upstream
These are the statistics for the traffic direction going out from the port to the
service provider.

Downstream These are the statistics for the traffic direction coming into the port from the
service provider.
Line Rate
These are the data transfer rates at which the port is sending and receiving data.

Trellis Coding
This displays whether or not the port is using Trellis coding for traffic it is sending
and receiving. Trellis coding helps to reduce the noise in ADSL transmissions.
Trellis may reduce throughput but it makes the connection more stable.

SNR Margin
This is the upstream and downstream Signal-to-Noise Ratio margin (in dB). A
DMT sub-carrier’s SNR is the ratio between the received signal power and the
received noise power. The signal-to-noise ratio margin is the maximum that the
received noise power could increase with the system still being able to meet its
transmission targets.

Actual Delay
This is the upstream and downstream interleave delay. It is the wait (in
milliseconds) that determines the size of a single block of data to be interleaved
(assembled) and then transmitted. Interleave delay is used when transmission
error correction (Reed- Solomon) is necessary due to a less than ideal telephone
line. The bigger the delay, the bigger the data block size, allowing better error
correction to be performed.

dBm).
Upstream is how much power the port is using to transmit to the service provider.
Downstream is how much port the service provider is using to transmit to the
port.

Receive Power
Upstream is how much power the service provider is receiving from the port.
Downstream is how much power the port is receiving from the service provider.

Actual INP
Sudden spikes in the line’s level of external noise (impulse noise) can cause errors
and result in lost packets. This could especially impact the quality of multimedia
traffic such as voice or video. Impulse noise protection (INP) provides a buffer to
allow for correction of errors caused by error correction to deal with this. The
number of DMT (Discrete Multi-Tone) symbols shows the level of impulse noise
protection for the upstream and downstream traffic. A higher symbol value
provides higher error correction capability, but it causes overhead and higher
delay which may increase error rates in received multimedia data.

Total Attenuation
This is the upstream and downstream line attenuation, measured in decibels (dB).
This attenuation is the difference between the power transmitted at the near-end
and the power received at the far-end. Attenuation is affected by the channel
characteristics (wire gauge, quality, condition and length of the physical line).
