The de-icer actuated by cartridge(DAC) can be used for emergency work on... transmission lines. The DAC is a portable device operated by remote control. It consists of a cylinder-and-piston system that can be suspended from a conductor or ground wire and fired by means of an electronic trigger. Installation from the ground is facilitated by the use of a line thrower. When the cartridge explodes, it generates a mechanical impulse that propagates along the span, breaking the ice instantaneously. 1, record 4, English, - de%2Dicer%20actuated%20by%20cartridge

HDSL(High bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line), one of the earliest forms of DSL, is used for wideband digital transmission within a corporate site and between the telephone company and a customer. The main characteristic of HDSL is that it is symmetrical : an equal amount of bandwidth is available in both directions. HDSL can carry as much on a single wire of twisted-pair cable as can be carried on a T1 line. 3, record 5, English, - high%20bit%20rate%20digital%20subscriber%20line

En téléphonie multiple, ou par courants porteurs, un même circuit physique est employé pour la transmission simultanée de plusieurs communications différentes. Ainsi, à l'aide de câbles souterrains, un nombre élevé de liaisons téléphoniques peut être réalisé sans accroître pour cela le nombre de conducteurs. Pour atteindre ce but, on emploie les mêmes procédés qu'en radioélectricité; il faut effectuer les mêmes opérations : modulation, amplification, filtrage, détection, mais dans des gammes de fréquences différentes. Pour réaliser une communication téléphonique commerciale, il suffit de transmettre une bande de fréquences de 3000 Hz. Cette bande a été fixée [...] entre 300 et 3400 Hz. Certains circuits ayant des bandes passantes de plusieurs centaines et même plusieurs milliers de kilohertz, on a mis à profit cette particularité très avantageuse pour transmettre des centaines de communications simultanément. 1, record 10, French, - t%C3%A9l%C3%A9phonie%20par%20courants%20porteurs
