A little {retired} bird flew by and told us that instead of needing a separate DSLAM in any CO or SLC offering ADSL; there is now a line card that will do either 4 POTS lines/slot, or
1 POTS+DSL.My query is: Does anyone know the manufacturer/model number of this card? It's likely that only a craft person working with same would know, but hey, I bet some of them read this newsgroup...
We ask because various lower-level folks at a RBOC {guess which} insist it does not exist; and there's no way to have ADLS sans outboard DSLAM. I guess they are afraid they might have [to] provision ADSL if people could order it.
If you don't want to be public; send the moderator or me a note from a throwaway address.
