Chapter 2: Overview
2. Overview
2.1 Introduction
The 10/100BASE-T Ethernet Extender over VDSL2 (very high-bit-rate digital
subscriber line) provides a broadband transmission up to 100-/60-Mbps
downstream/upstream data rates over a single twisted-pair copper line for
point-to-point Ethernet. At 100-/60-Mbps data rates, the extender supports
transmission distances up to 984.2 feet (300 meters), and provides a
30-/10-Mbps data rate for a 3280 feet (1 km) connection. Users may also select
a fixed data rate or a fixed SNR margin for different copper line ranging.
With plug-and-play features and minimum installation time, you can configure
each extender for either CO for central side or RT for remote side by setting DIP
switches. The extender conforms to ITU-T G.993.1 and G.993.2 to meet VDSL/
VDSL2 and SG15Q4 DMT standards for network requirements. Use a pair of
extenders for bandwidth-hungry applications such as LAN-to-LAN connectivity,
video streaming, FTTB, and MDU/MTU over a single twisted-pair telephone line.
