Morphology

superline = line (transparent) = super + line

The meaning 'a line with greater capacity or performance' follows directly from the productive prefix 'super-' added to 'line'.

Etymology

Superline joins super ('above' or 'beyond') and line ('a route or connection'). So a superline is a 'bigger' or 'faster' line that carries more traffic and works better than a normal line.
