AT-MC601, AT-MC602 Installation and User’s Guide

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 can be either installed in an AT-MCR12 chassis, used as a desktop device, or mounted onto the wall, provided that the chassis is connected to an appropriate ground rod. Refer to ”Installing the AT-MC602 Provider Unit” on page 28" 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.
