| [DSL] Compare DSL Splitters ?
What is a GOOD brand of (indoor) DSL/POTS splitter ?
If I search google with:
compare dsl pots splitter
I get price comparisons but no comments on performance / quality.
Filters are almost useless for me.
P.S. Wilcom splitters look like re-branded Corning splitters.

It sounds like you want a single DSL filter with Phone / DSL jacks on it.
Otherwise you're looking for just a standard POTS splitter.
I doubt you'll find reviews on either, to be perfectly honest. |

I've always used the SUTTLE Line Conditioners PN: 340-R001-031 that were included with my DSL Modem.

I'm sure you can find them cheaper.
They also make the 340-R002-020 Wall Mount Line Conditioner, they are a bit harder to find.

said by ang_mor  :What is a GOOD brand of (indoor) DSL/POTS splitter ? Splitters should use large inductors and capacitors not easily damaged by line surges.
Keptel, Siecor, Corning for outdoor, and many house labels for indoor. Anything smaller than a 4"x3" box is probably junk.
Spec should state insertion loss, band reject loss, max voltage surge. |

Splitter vs inline filter |
I used Corning/Siecor, now TII, whole house splitter. Have not done a comparison with other units. It is a three stage passive filter whereas in-line are typically single stage. Has fused secondary surge protection. The one I have has Half-Ringer test circuit after the filter allowing the one in the NID to be removed. ADSL is designed to operating with half-ringer but is line is marginal removing it is one less unfiltered load.
