Applications for the AT-MC606 VDSL Network Extender

The AT-MC606 VDSL Network Extender is designed to be used in pairs to

extend Ethernet traffic over existing coaxial cables in a building. One

AT-MC606 is configured as the subscriber unit and the second unit is

configured as the provider unit. You must manually configure these units

as a subscriber or provider unit when installed.

If you plan to install multiple AT-MC606s in a rack or on a desktop, the

AT-MCR12 chassis can accommodate up to 12 units. The DC power for

all of the AT-MC606s is provided by an internal power supply within

the AT-MCR12 chassis.

Unit (MDU)

Topology

The AT-MC606’s can be used is in multi-dwelling units (MDU), multi-

tenant buildings (MTU) or in the hospitality industry, such as airports,

hotels, and convention centers. For example, Figure 5 illustrates a point-

to-point topology for an MDU building where internet services are

delivered to each room using VDSL via the building’s coaxial cable wiring.

An AT-MC606 Subscriber unit is installed in each guest room while the

corresponding AT-MC606 Provider units are located in the building’s

central equipment room and are individually assigned to each office.

The Provider units are rack mounted together in AT-MCR12 chassis and

their Ethernet ports are connected via an Ethernet LAN to the building’s

internet service. Both Subscriber and Provider units are configured
