OVER VDSL CONVERTER
3.1 Install the Ethernet Over VDSL Converter
The Converter does not require any software
configuration. Users can immediately use any feature of
this product simply by attached the cables and plug power
on. There is some key limitation on the Ethernet over VDSL
converter. Please check the following items:
The device is used for point-to-point connection only and
allow data and voice work on the same telephone lines.
Two RJ-11 connectors for VDSL port. One for voice device
connection (like telephone) and the other one for network
link connection.
Depending on the quality of telephone line, the maximum
distance of one VDSL segment is 1.2km (4000ft) with AWG
26 telephone wires. The distance will change by the quality
of telephone wires. We got some data as following table.
Phone line wire (diameter) Distance
AWG 26 (0.40 mm) 1.2km
AWG 24 (0.51 mm) 1.3km
AWG 22 (0.64 mm) 1.5km
Therefore, this device is an ideal client access unit for the
applications of apartment, hotel, campus and hospitality.
Integration with the Internet access concentrator, the total
infrastructure could be a perfect solution for multi-media
local Internet. This structure could support many
multi-media applications, like VOD (Video on Demand),
Distant education, Internet caching server, … and so on.
