Small Form-Factor Pluggable
Long Reach Ethernet over VDSL2
SFP-VDSLAB
OVER VDSL
The ComNet SFP-VDSLAB small form-factor pluggable Ethernet extender module
kit improves bandwidth and distance of Ethernet over existing VDSL2 technology. It
helps avoid installation costs of new fiber lines on site and can extend Ethernet service
on UTP wire with distance up to 3,000 meters. Full Duplex 100 Mbps speed can reach
up to 400 meters over standard Cat 5e 2-wire cable. The symmetric profile can be
used for standard Ethernet connections or the asymmetric profile can support high
traffic flow in a single direction.
Housed in a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module enclosure, it is designed for
plug-and-play installation into any 1000BASE-FX Ethernet unit with an MSA-compliant
port. These pairs include the SFP-VDSLA module to be installed at one end and the
SFP-VDSLB installed in the other.
FEATURES
› Extends Ethernet* up to 1.8 mi (3 km) (see distance/
bandwidth table on page 2) and can support 1,300 ft (400 m)
at 100 Mbps over Cat 5e 2-wire cable.
› Designed to meet full compliance with the environmental
requirements (ambient operating temperature, mechanical
shock, vibration, humidity with condensation, high-line/lowline voltage conditions and transient voltage protection) of
NEMA TS-1/TS-2 and the Caltrans Specification for Traffic
Signal Control Equipment.
› Lifetime Warranty
APPLICATIONS
› Retrofit existing VDSL2 installations to Ethernet-based
systems
› Metering, Transportation, Outdoor Wi-Fi Access Points, IP
Surveillance
* Distance figures are obtained using in-house testing mirroring
installations. Factors such as cable quality, the number of connectors
and splices in the cable run, and environmental conditions
encountered within the installation might affect the actual transmission
distance and should be taken into consideration.

INSTALLATION & OPERATION
SFP-VDSL is a book-end solution that can work only with an additional SFP-VDSL.
Follow the instructions below to install and connect SFP-VDSL:
Plug one of the two SFP-VDSL into the 1000BASE-FX SFP slot of a MSA-compliant
device/switch. Repeat this step for the second SFP-VDSL in the pair.
Connection
Connect SFP-VDSL devices using a twisted 2-wire cable (use pins 4 & 5). Always
connect SFP-VDSLA to a SFP-VDSLB. If a SFP-VDSL was connected to a regular port
of any Ethernet device, such as a switch, reset the SFP-VDSL by unplugging and
re-inserting the unit.
Link synchronization may take up to one minute.
