Overview
These devices can be used in multi-dwelling units (MDU), multi-tenant
buildings (MTU), and in the hospitality industry, such as airports, hotels,
and convention centers.
These units are sold in pairs with the AT-MC601 functioning as the
subscriber and the AT-MC602 functioning as the provider. In an MDU,
such as a university dormitory, the subscriber unit would be installed in
each room and connected to a provider unit through the telephone
outlet. Each AT-MC602 or provider unit would be located in the building
wiring closet.
The AT-MC601 Extended Ethernet unit can be used as a desktop or
wallmount device while the AT-MC602 unit must be installed in an
AT-MCR12 rackmount chassis. Refer to ”Installing the AT-MC602 Provider
Unit” on page 30" for installation details. These units are easy to install.
They can be configured and managed through the MGMT port using the
software provided on the installation CD.
When both the AT-MC601 Subscriber and the AT-MC602 Provider have
been installed, the network extender system topology shown in Figure 1
is complete.
