The VC-1602 is an Ethernet over VDSL switch with sixteen VDSL ports (on 1 RJ-21 connector) and two Gigabit slide-in slots on the rear panel for optional fiber/copper Gigabit modules. The switch is a DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) accommodating well proven Ethernet and VDSL technologies to extend Ethernet over single-pair phone line by using a VDSL signal. Up to 15/17Mbps bandwidth and 5 selective transmission modes provides ultra-high performance to the pervasive telephone line network, and has the advantage of minimum installation time and minimum expense by allowing voice and data to share the same telephone pair without interference. Moreover, the maximum 1.5km distance provides wide coverage for service providers. The 2 Gigabit slide-in slots on the rear panel provide fat pipes for connecting to the backbone or connecting to servers. 10/100/ 1000Base-T, 1000Base-SX and 1000Base-LX modules are available to fit existing networks and to provide flexible media selections.
The VDSL Switch contains an advanced management capability that can be remotely accessed by Telnet, SNMP and Browser. The standard IEEE 802.1Q with VLAN tagging feature makes logically separating nodes easier with up to 255 VLAN groups allowed. Two priority queues with 802.1p support, IGMP snooping and rate control function are also provided to optimize network bandwidth.
The VC-1602 provides switch stacking functionality to manage up to 8 switches using a single IP address. Through its proprietary management bus using a standard RJ-45 cable, the distance between stacked switches can be up to 800m. The management bus traffic is separated from the network ports, ensuring heavy network loading does not affect management tasks. 128 VDSL ports can be managed with a single IP address.
The VC-1602 is ideal for providing broadband services to subscribers in apartment, hotel and campus communities. Fully compatible with Cisco LRE CPE modems, PLANET's VDSL solution provides a lower cost replacement and smooth migration from existing Cisco LRE networks.
Product Application
MTU/MDU/Hospitality Solution
VDSL is the best solution to quickly provide cost-effective, high speed network services to multi-unit buildings, such as residential (multidwelling units) and commercial (multitenant units) buildings, hotels and hospitals. By utilizing the existing telephony infrastructure, network installation eliminates the need for new wiring. With 15/17Mbps data rate, Video on Demand, IP telephony and various broadband services can be easily delivered to end users.
