KEY FEATURES

Robust operation on severely distorted lines

Supports power back-off algorithm that permits a mixed distance deployment

Additional VDSL2 features include:

Fast startup for quick initialization

Trellis coding modulation for higher performance

Seamless rate adaptation for enhanced quality in video applications

Variable tone spacing enables best performance for long and short reach lines

Improved framing, overhead channel, and interleaving

Ethernet Connectivity

16 VDSL lines for Ethernet connections to subscribers, operating at 100 Mbps symmetric or at asymmetric rates (such as 100/50 Mbps).

2 1000BASE-T/SFP ports provide 4 Gbps of aggregate bandwidth for network uplink.

Auto-negotiation enables each RJ-45 uplink port to automatically select the optimum speed and communication mode (10/100 Mbps at half/full duplex, or 1000 Mbps at full duplex) if this feature is supported by the attached device; otherwise the port can be configured manually.

RJ-45 ports support auto MDI/MDI-X pinout selection.

Unshielded (UTP) cable supported on all RJ-45 ports: Category 3 or better for 10 Mbps connections, Category 5 or better for 100 Mbps connections, and Category 5, 5e, 6 or better for 1000 Mbps connections.

IEEE 802.3-2005 Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet compliance ensures compatibility with standards-based hubs, network cards and switches from any vendor.
