An apparatus and method are provided for bypassing a load coil in a
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) circuit. An interface is provided for
making a connection with the DSL circuit and receiving a combined
multichannel signal. The combined multichannel signal includes a high
frequency or DSL signal and a low frequency signal or voice signal. A
high pass filter is utilized to block the voice signal and route the DSL
signal over a communications path to bypass the load coil in the DSL
circuit. The voice signal is then routed by a low pass filter to the load
coil in the DSL circuit.
