1.2.1 MTU Application
The following diagram depicts a typical application of the AES-100 is in a large residential building, or multiple
tenant unit (MTU), that leverages the existing phone line wiring to provide Internet access to all tenants.
A tenant connects a computer to the phone line in a unit using an ADSL modem. The other end of the phone line is
connected to a port on the AES-100. The AES-100 aggregates the traffic from the tenants to the Ethernet port and
forwards it to a router. The router then routes the traffic further to the Internet. The following diagram shows the
installation environment for an MTU Application.
