ADSL Connection, digital hybrid phone system ?

Edwards Finance > Phones

Q. My office is rebuilding after a recent fire. We are using a digital hybrid system for our phones (Panasonic). We'll have 30-40 telephone lines and upwards to 40 data cat five data lines. I'd like to have the building prepared for DSL service before it arrives. I plan on using the DSL connection with a proxy server such as wingate to feed internet access to a few people in the building. The host computer will be in our server room which will be approx 150-200 feet from the wiring closet. Since we are using a hybrid system I was wondering if we have to go with the expense of adding another line to bring us up to a total of 11 lines instead of 10 to service our building. Would it be possible for the telco company to use one of the 10 lines to feed my ADSL connection to the ADSL host computer?

We have the Panasonic D1232 hybrid system in the office and its smaller brother, the D816 at home. You are right that if you hook a dialup modem thru the PBX box, you are limited to between 24 and 27K. I had the splitter put just in front of the PBX box at home. (Don't have DSL at the office.) The DSL wire runs about 30 feet from the splitter to the DSL "modem" next to the computer. In the office we would have to use an unused pair from the phone closet to wherever we want the DSL line to terminate.
