Paradyne SMD2000-24T Verifying the Connections, Single Line Shdsl Connection

The speed and data passing capability of multiple SHDSL lines, as used for one network connection, is cumulative. For example, loop bonding three SHDSL lines for one network connection nets three times the speed and data passing capability of a single-line SHDSL connection. Additionally, use of multiple SHDSL lines for one connection provides automatic backup should one or more lines in the bonded group experience problems or become disabled.

NOTE:

Upon connection, all ports in a bonded group will automatically default to the configurations of the lowest numbered port of the group. Hence, the lowest numbered port of the group should be configured prior to connection if you intend to run the group with parameter settings other than the defaults.

Single Line SHDSL Connection

A single line SHDSL subscriber connection may be established with any standard SHDSL subscriber equipment.

Verifying the Connection(s)

The LK (link) LED for each port connected with a remote modem will flash green to indicate a connection has been established. An ACT LED flashing amber indicates SHDSL activity. Link establishment time between the SMD2000-24T and remote SHDSL modems can vary from one to five minutes depending on the quality, gauge, and length of the copper cable pairs being used.

Note:

If any of the cable distances are greater than the configured bandwidth will support, the units may not link up or, if they do achieve link, traffic quality may be affected (for example, packets may be dropped).
