There is a new technology making the rounds of the telecommunications industry known as Voice over Digital Subscriber Line (VoDSL) that could save small and medium sized businesses from 30% to 40% of the combined phone and Internet access bills they currently pay. DSL is a frequency modulation technology that has been around for about a decade. Basically, it enables service providers and carriers to transport data and voice at high speeds over a longer distance in the service span than could earlier modulation techniques. There are several "flavors" of DSL, including HDSL and the much-hyped Asymmetric DSL (ADSL). What makes VoDSL different is that carriers can provide multiple channel voice and broadband data (such as always-on Internet connection) services simultaneously on a regular phone line.
