IE-iMcV-VDSL2-LANextender

iMcV-VDSL2-LANextender

Promotion – Value Proposition

For our customers, the IE-iMcV-VDSL2-LANextender delivers VDSL data rates at long and short ranges using existing phone-grade wiring such as sub-standard CAT3 or other telephone cabling while auto adjusting the link quality (throughput) and monitoring and isolating faults with the Remote Alarm Indicator, Flow Control, and Link Fault Pass Through features


• Modular, compact iMcV form factor, one VDSL port with an RJ-11connector (VDSL) and one 10/100BaseT Ethernet port with an RJ-45 connector (DATA)

• Provides 100 Mbps at greater than 100 m

• SNMP Management and trap setting (i.e., minimum Quality Level, etc.)




• Flow control detection, helps avoid dropping packets due to VDSL link congestion

• Auto adjust to reach best bandwidth performance for the physical line used (maximum throughput) = LINK quality

• On board diagnostics and management, including front panel LED’s, Link Loss (VDSL or TX port), LFPT and Remote Alarm Indication

Feature: • VDSL2 performance at greater

than 100 m

Benefit:• 100 Mbps using existing phone-

grade wiring such as sub-standard CAT3 or other telephone cabling

• Customers want higher data rates (speed), we give them both, speed and distance



Feature: • Flow Control on the 10/100BaseT DATA

interface• Indicator of VDSL2 link congestion• OVF LED (flashes)

Benefit:• Alerts customer of potential network

issue Ethernet line is attempting to send more

data than VDSL2 line can support (VDSL2 line provides less bandwidth than the DATA port configuration)

• Helps stop discarding frames due to congestion



Feature: • Auto adjust bandwidth performance,

LINK quality• Customer can config SNMP TRAP on

minimum quality – level

Benefit:• True plug –and – play operation• Operating point AUTOMATICALLY

maximizes bandwidth capability of the line in use

• LINK Quality displayed dynamically with LED’s via binary code





Feature:

• LEDS

Benefit:• VDSL

RAI (Remote Alarm Indicator): When enabled, YELLOW when the unit at the far end has an alarm

FL (Fault Loopback): When enabled, unit will drop the DATA port link when VDSL port link is lost:

ENABLED = ACTIVATED = (flashing)

LOS (Loss of Signal): when enabled, LED is RED if VDSL port is down

ER (Error): When enabled, YELLOW if: Symbol error VDSL Bandwidth below user defined



Feature:

• LEDS

Benefit:• LINK QUALITY 8-4-2-1

GREEN LED’s form a “binary” code, indicating maximum bandwidth VDSL line can support

• DATA OVF (Overflow): When enabled, LED flashes YELLOW when

frames are lost due to VDSL congestion

LFPT: When enabled LED is GREEN and flashes if LOS of the far end TX line

LOS (Loss of Signal): when enabled, LED is RED if VDSL / DATA port is down

ER (Error): When enabled, YELLOW when DATA port receives a symbol error

Conclusion

Improved VDSL LANextender Performance• True 100Mbps at short range and

long range

• Quality control and operation, including flow control and automatic maximum throughput configuration and operation

• Improved Fault detection, including packet loss detection and notification, and the availability of RAI and LFPT iMcV-VDSL2-LANextender
