Energy Saving Note of the Device

This power required device does not support Standby mode

operation.

For energy saving, please remove the DC-plug or push the hardware

Power Switch to OFF position to disconnect the device from the

power circuit.

Without removing the DC-plug or switch off the device, the device

will still consume power from the power source. In the view of

Saving the Energy and reduce the unnecessary power consuming, it

is strongly suggested to power off or to remove the DC-plug for the

device if this device is not intended to be active.

WEEE Warning

To avoid the potential effects on the environment and

human health as a result of the presence of hazardous

substances in electrical and electronic equipment, end

users of electrical and electronic equipment should

1.2 Ethernet over VDSL2 Bridge Description

PLANET's state-of-the-art Ethernet-over-VDSL2 products are

based on two core networking technologies: Ethernet and

VDSL2 (Very-high-data-rate Digital Subscriber Line 2). This

technology offers the absolute fastest possible data transmission

speeds over existing copper telephone lines or coaxial cables

without the need for rewiring.

The VC-201A / VC-202A / VC-204 Ethernet Over VDSL2

Converter has a switching architecture with RJ-45 10/100Mbps

Ethernet port and one asymmetric or symmetric Ethernet over

VDSL port (Asymmetric means upstream and downstream

rate are not the same and Symmetric means upstream and

downstream rate are similar) – the VDSL port can be RJ-11

connector (VC-201A / VC-204) or BNC Connector (VC-202A). The

VC-201A / VC-202A / VC-204 can be set to Central Ofce (CO)

or Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) mode via a DIP switch.

When VC-20X-CO (VC-201A / VC-204 is connected with other

VC-20X-CPE (VC-201A / VC-204) device, the performance will

up to 100/55Mbps for asymmetric data rate within 200m and up

to 25/4Mbps for asymmetric data rate at 1.6km. The VC-202A

(BNC) performance is up to 100/65Mbps for asymmetric data

rate within 200m and up to 25/5Mbps for asymmetric data rate

at 3.0km. This capability is ideal for use as an Ethernet extender

for your existing Ethernet network.

PLANET VDSL2 Converter provides a much cheaper replacement

and smooth migration for existing Long Reach Ethernet (LRE)

networks.

The cable specications of the connection are listed as following:

10Base-T, Category 3, 4 or 5 UTPl

100Base-TX, Category 5, 5e or 6 UTPl

Ethernet over VDSL2, Twisted-pair telephone wiresl

Ethernet over VDSL2, Coaxial cablel

The two drawings pictures are typical application for the Ethernet

over VDSL2 Converter.

Note

Slave device (CPE) must connect to Master device

(CO) through the telephone wire or coaxial cable.

It is not allow connecting like Master to Master or

Slave to Slave. To define the VC-201A / VC-202A /

VC-204 to CO or CPE, please refer to section 2.2.1

for more detail.
