Introducing the P-2812HNU-51c

1.1 Overview

The P-2812HNU-51c is a VDSL2 Integrated Access Device (IAD) that combines a VDSL2+ router with Voice over IP (VoIP) communication capabilities. You may access the Internet in one of these ways:

You can have super-fast, secure Internet access over analog (POTS) telephone lines. The P-2812HNU-51c supports both Packet Transfer Mode (PTM) and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) and can be backward compatible with ADSL, ADSL2 and ADSL2+.

You can use an Ethernet WAN port for Internet access through the Ethernet WAN connection.

You can use 3G as your WAN and access the Internet via a 3G network.

The P-2812HNU-51c also allows you to use a traditional analog telephone to make Internet calls. You can use Quality of Service (QoS) to efficiently manage traffic on your network by giving priority to certain types of traffic and/or to particular computers.
