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 end- to-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 rack- mounted 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.
