MSAP2000 AAMS User’s Guide 
Discrete Multi-Tone (DMT) modulation divides up a line’s bandwidth into tones. 
This command displays the number of bits transmitted for each tone. This can be 
used to determine the quality of the connection, whether a given sub-carrier loop 
has sufficient margins to support ADSL transmission rates, and possibly to 
determine whether certain specific types of interference or line attenuation exist. 
Refer to the ITU-T G.992.1 recommendation for more information on DMT. 
The better (or shorter) the line, the higher the number of bits transmitted for a 
DMT tone. The maximum number of bits that can be transmitted per DMT tone is 
15. 
“upstream carrier load” displays the number of bits transmitted per DMT tone for 
the upstream channel (from the subscriber’s DSL modem or router to the 
MSAP2000 AAMS). 
“downstream carrier load” displays the number of bits received per DMT 
tone for the downstream channel (from the MSAP2000 AAMS to the 
subscriber’s DSL modem or router). 
The bit allocation contents are only valid when the link is up. 
In the following example, the upstream channel is carried on tones 7 to 39 and the 
downstream channel is carried on tones 53 to 259 (space is left between the 
channels to avoid interference).
