ADSL
(Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line)
Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) is a type of broadband internet connection that uses existing telephone lines to transmit data. It is called 'asymmetric' because it provides faster download speeds compared to upload speeds.
ADSL is widely used in residential and small business environments due to its cost-effectiveness and availability. However, it is gradually being replaced by faster technologies like Fiber Optics and 5G. According to the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), ADSL still accounts for 30% of global broadband connections as of 2023.
