Network Example
Figure 1-3 illustrates a network that includes a Cisco 1400 series router.
A Cisco 1401 router connects to the ADSL line through a DSL modem. (The Cisco 1407
and Cisco 1417 routers do not require the modem.) Some DSL modems have an integrated
POTS splitter, which connects a phone or fax machine to the same ADSL line as the router.
If you are using a telephone and the Cisco 1407 or Cisco 1417 router on the same telphone
line, an external POTS splitter is required for optimal performance. A splitter reduces
possible interference on both data connections and voice calls, which use different
frequencies. For more information, refer to the “Using POTS Splitters and Microfilters”
section in the “Installation” chapter later in this guide.
