Multi-service device
PowerLink offers the necessary flexibility for transmitting every service the
customer might want in the available band. All services can be combined
in any way within the available bandwidth / bit rate framework.

Voice compression – less is more
Voice compression is indispensable for the efficient utilization
of networks. Naturally, quality must not suffer, which is why
PowerLink offers comprehensive options for adapting the data
rate to individual requirements. PowerLink offers different com-
pression stages between 5.3 and 8 kbit / s. To prevent any im-
pairment of voice quality, the compressed voice band is routed
transparently to PowerLink stations connected in line, without
any further compression or decompression.
