This MIB module serves as an enterprise-specific extension of
the ADSL-LINE-MIB.  The structure of this MIB module shadows
the structure of the ADSL-LINE-MIB, table for table.  The tables
defined by this MIB module contain managed objects that meet the
following criteria:

1)  A managed object represents an attribute or characteristic
    specific to CAP (Carrierless AM/PM) modems.

2)  The ADSL-CAP-LINE-MIB does not already contain a managed
    object representing the same information as this managed
    object.

Observe that entries contained by the tables in this MIB module
do not augment the corresponding entries in the ADSL-LINE-MIB,
as every modem represented by the ADSL-LINE-MIB is not
necessarily a CAP modem.

Also observe that entries contained by the tables in this MIB
module do not augment the corresponding entries in the
ADSL-CAP-LINE-MIB, as this assumes that the ADSL-CAP-LINE-MIB
defines tables that correspond to every table defined by the
ADSL-LINE-MIB.  At this time, this assumption does not hold
true.

*** DEFINITIONS ***

DOWNSTREAM
    The flow of data in the direction from the ATU-C to ATU-R.

MARGIN (also referred to as 'SNR margin')
    The difference between the SNR of the received signal and
    the SNR required to provide a BER of 10E-7.

SYMBOL
    The number of bits the transmitter is capable of
    multiplexing and modulating in a single signalling interval.

SYMBOL RATE
    The rate at which all symbols are transmitted.

UPSTREAM
    The flow of data in the direction from the ATU-R to ATU-C.
