Chapter 1 Introduction  ASMi-52 Installation and Operation Manual 
1-8 Technical Specifications   
The ASMi-52 modem consists of the following major modules: 
DTE interface – Prepares the digital data coming from the DTE into a data stream for the 
modem glue logic. In addition it translates the data from the modem glue 
logic into digital data to be sent to the DTE. 
Internal oscillator – Serves as a source of internal clock for the ASMi-52 unit. 
Modem glue logic module – Processes the data from/to the SHDSL interface module. 
SHDSL line interface – Translates the received and transmitted data from the line to the 
DTE interface. 
Power supply – Provides 2.5V, 3.3V, 5V and -5V voltage to the ASMi-52 internal 
elements. 
CPU – Controls the ASMi-52 operation. 
10/100BaseT management port – Provides LAN connection to the SNMP management 
station or Telnet host. 
LEDs and terminal interface – Provides modem status information via LED indicators on 
the front panel, and communicates with the supervisory terminal.
