B) Symmetric digital subscriber line
C) ATM
D) Both A and B

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) is a type of DSL that supports faster transmission rates in the downstream (receiving) direction than in the upstream (sending) direction. This makes it ideal for tasks such as downloading large files, video streaming, and browsing the internet, as these tasks typically require more downstream bandwidth than upstream bandwidth.  Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL) provides equal bandwidth in both directions, whereas ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) is a networking technology that can be used with various types of connections, including DSL.
