Overview AT-MC605 Port Descriptions VDSL Line Port The VDSL Line port features an RJ-11 connector. It allows you to connect two AT-MC605 VDSL Ethernet Extender units together using existing internal building telephone copper pairs. By using this equipment, both ethernet data and analog phone service are made accessible within a building without installing additional wiring for the ethernet connections. One AT-MC605 Ethernet Extender is configured as a Provider unit and the other as a Subscriber unit.

Overview ethernet port is set to 100 Mbps. Half- and Full-duplex Mode Duplex mode refers to the way an end-node sends and receives data on the network. An end-node can operate in either half- or full-duplex mode, depending on its capabilities. In half-duplex mode, data can be either sent or received, but not at the same time. In full-duplex mode, data can be sent and received simultaneously.

Overview Status LEDs The AT-MC605 VDSL Ethernet Extender features the status LEDs and are defined in Table 5. Table 5. Front Panel Status LEDs LED PWR Color Description GREEN Power is applied to the unit. OFF Power is not applied to the unit. 10/100Base-TX Port LINK/ ACT 100M Solid GREEN A link has been established on the port. Blinking GREEN Network traffic is being transmitted and/or received. OFF A link has not been established. Solid GREEN Port is linked at 100 Mbps.
AT-MC605 VDSL Ethernet Extender Installation Guide Table 5. Front Panel Status LEDs LED RATE Color Blinking GREEN/ Description After a VDSL link is established, the Rate LED will continuously blink a set number of times in a set time interval. Each “blink” represents approximately 10 Mbps of VDSL line rate (e.g., six “blinks represents a VDSL line rate of 60 Mbps).
Overview VDSL Configuration DIP Switches VDSL Switch Definitions The AT-MC605 VDSL Ethernet Extender features the four VDSL Configuration DIP switches on the front panel. The UP/DOWN positions of each switch are shown in “VDSL Configuration DIP Switches” on page 25 and defined in Table 6 below. Table 6. VDSL Configuration DIP Switches Switch Position Switch Function UP SCBR Unit is configured for the Subscriber Mode. DOWN PROV Unit is configured for the Provider Mode.

Overview NO LIMIT/RATE LIMIT VDSL Configuration Switch The NO LIMIT/RATE LIMIT (Right Center) switch selects the maximum data rate for the VDSL line. The NO LIMIT position is the factory default for this switch, which allows a maximum downstream data rate of 100 Mbps and and a maximum upstream data rate of 60 Mbps. The RATE LIMIT position limits the downlink and uplink line rates to a symmetrical mode where the line rates in both directions are approximately the same.
