Abstract:
Systems and methods for connecting and disconnecting to a DSL ring are provided. A cross connect node is used to connect multiple endpoints into a DSL ring. When a given endpoint is powered down, a cross connect bypasses that endpoint such that the ring is maintained. POTS service is provided irrespective of whether the endpoint is bypassed for the purpose of the ring. The status of a bypassed node can be ascertained using baseband signalling.
