In telecommunications, ITU-T G.992.1 (better known as G.dmt) is an ITU standard for ADSL using discrete multitone modulation (DMT). G.dmt full-rate ADSL expands the usable bandwidth of existing copper telephone lines, delivering high-speed data communications at rates up to 8 Mbit/s downstream and 1.3 Mbit/s upstream.
DMT allocates from 2 to 15 bits per channel (bin). As line conditions change, bit swapping allows the modem to swap bits around different channels, without retraining, as each channel becomes more or less capable. If bit swapping is disabled then this does not happen and the modem needs to retrain in order to adapt to changing line conditions.
There are 2 competing standards for DMT ADSL - ANSI and G.dmt; ANSI T1.413 is a North American standard, G.992.1 (G.dmt) is an ITU (United Nations Telecom committee) standard. G.dmt is used most commonly today, throughout the world, but the ANSI standard was formerly popular in North America. There is a difference in framing between the two, and selecting the wrong standard can cause frame alignment errors every 5 or so minutes. Error correction is done using Reed–Solomon encoding and further protection can be used if Trellis encoding is used at both ends. Interleaving can also increase the robustness of the line but increases latency.
Modulation is the overlaying of information (or the signal) onto an electronic or optical carrier waveform. There are two competing and incompatible standards for modulating the ADSL signal, known as discrete multitone modulation (DMT) and Carrierless Amplitude Phase (CAP). CAP was the original technology used for DSL deployments, but the most widely used method now is DMT.
The graphs on the right summarise the speeds obtainable for each ADSL standard based on line length and attenuation. The second graph is of more importance since it is attenuation which is the governing factor for line speed because attenuation rate over distance can vary significantly between various copper lines due to their quality and other factors.

L’ADSL (de l'anglais Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) est une technique de communication numérique (couche physique) de la famille xDSL. Elle permet d'utiliser une ligne téléphonique, une ligne spécialisée, ou encore une ligne RNIS (en anglais ISDN pour integrated services digital network), pour transmettre et recevoir des données numériques de manière indépendante du service téléphonique conventionnel (analogique).
Le VDSL (de l'anglais very high-speed rate digital subscriber line signifiant ligne de transmission numérique à très haute vitesse) est une technologie de télécommunication de type xDSL (les signaux transmis sur une paire de cuivre, simultanément et sans interférence avec la voix téléphonique). Elle permet d'atteindre des débits de dans un sens et de dans l'autre ou, si l'on veut en faire une connexion symétrique, un débit de . Le VDSL est un protocole de couche 1 (Physique) selon le modèle OSI.
