Abstract

Habituellement, un modem DSL doit être inséré dans la première sortie téléphonique. Le dispositif d'adaptation de l'invention permet la connexion du modem DSL dans n'importe quelle sortie, notamment pour les installations où les sorties téléphoniques sont connectées en série, mais également pour les sorties parallèles ou dans une topologie mixte. Ce dispositif d'adaptation est conçu pour être connecté entre un téléphone (29) et une sortie téléphonique (21) et comprend un premier et un second filtre passe-bas (61), chaque filtre passe-bas étant connecté entre un terminal au niveau de la sortie téléphonique et un terminal téléphonique, et un filtre passe-haut connecté entre un premier et un second terminal de la sortie téléphonique. L'ordinateur peut être connecté dans n'importe quelle sortie téléphonique si ce dispositif d'adaptation est inséré dans les autres sorties. Un commutateur peut être utilisé sur le filtre passe-haut, ce qui permet une sélection automatique entre une connexion informatique et une connexion téléphonique dans la même sortie.
