TIGERACCESS EXTENDED ETHERNET CPE

VDSL delivers high-performance online applications, such as high-quality video and other switched multimedia services. SMC’s Ethernet VDSL CPE system provides robust performance, with a symmetric data rate up to 15 Mbps, and a range up to 1770 m (5800 ft). SMC’s system is based on advanced VDSL QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) technology with adaptive channel equalization that overcomes bridge taps and other line distortions. Reed-Solomon Forward Error Correction and interleaving protects against errors due to impulse noise, and enables recovery from signal interruptions. Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD) separates downstream and upstream channels and allows VDSL signals to coexist with regular telephone services. A power back-off mechanism is also implemented to reduce noise from crosstalk in line bundles.
