SingTel Magix is enabled by the following core technologies which allows us to provide broadband services to homes, schools and offices.

ADSL (Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line) technology connects two ADSL modems - one on each side of the telephone line - to allow the transmission of large amounts of information, via a broadband network "…(it) also allows transmission of voice while the modem is accessing data concurrently…you can be surfing or watching a movie online and still make phone calls on the same on line.''

"Singapore Telecom's ADSL can run up to 2.5Mb, depending on the service that you subscribe to. This kind of data transfer speed is now possible over a pair of normal copper telephone lines because the ADSL uses a digital compression standard, DMT, or Digital Mult-Tone."

Connected to PSTN telephone lines and ADSL modem also allows transmission of voice while the modem is accessing data concurrently. That means you can be surfing or watching a movie online and making phone calls at the same time.

ATM switched fibre optical network also allows huge amounts of data, video and images to be transferred real-time between our server farms and the end-users' PC.
