56 kbit/s line
A 56 kbit/s line is a digital connection (possibly a leased line, possibly switched) capable of carrying 56 kilobits per second (kbit/s), or 56,000 bit/s, the data rate of a normal single channel digital telephone line in North America. With the wide deployment of faster, cheaper, technologies such as ADSL and SDSL, 56 kbit/s lines are generally considered to be an obsolete technology.
