Extended EthernetTM over VDSL, Provider Unit
Extended Ethernet™ Operation
Used as a pair, the AT-MC601 and AT-MC602
provide over 10Mbps of symmetric data
transfer, while supporting POTS service over
phone-grade, twisted-pair, wiring (CAT1, 2, 3) at
distances up to 1.2Km or 4,000 feet.
They are the ideal solution for providing over
10Mbps operation on 'last-mile' twisted-pair
circuits or existing in-building wiring.
Standard Ethernet operation is preserved endto-
end, retaining VLAN tags, and Ethernet MAC
information across the link, while higher layer
protocols are passed transparently. 10Mbps
Ethernet operation is supported simultaneously
with POTS, ISDN or PBX signalling, without
disruption.
MTU and MDU Applications
Multi-Tenant Units (MTU) such as offices and
campuses, and Multiple Dwelling Units (MDU)
such as hotels and apartments are an ideal
environment for the AT-MC601/2 network
extenders, where phone-grade wiring can be
used to provide broadband access to Internet
services including video streaming,WWW,
gaming and e-mail.There is no need to re-wire
premises with expensive CAT5 or fiber to
provide broadband Ethernet services.
Standalone and Rack-mount
The AT-MC602 provider unit is available as a
compact standalone unit for installation at the
central office, or alternatively, it can be rackmounted
in the standard AT-MCR12 chassis
from Allied Telesis, capable of housing up to
twelve units in one compact chassis with a
redundant power supply, simplifying wiring and
minimizing space requirements.
Plug and Play Operation
Simply connect to the RJ-45 Ethernet port and
the unit will automatically auto-sense and
configure for 10T or 10/100TX, as well as full or
half-duplex Ethernet operation. An integral
POTS splitter means that existing phone
services are not affected - no reconfiguration is
required.
