Ethernet over VDSL2 Bridge Description
The IFS state-of-the-art Ethernet-over-VDSL2 products are
based on two core networking technologies: Ethernet and
VDSL2 (Very-high-data-rate Digital Subscriber Line 2). This
technology offers the absolute fastest possible data
transmission speeds over existing lines or coaxial cables
without the need for rewiring.
The IFS MCR200-1T/1CX has a switching architecture with
RJ-45 10/100Mbps Ethernet port and one asymmetric or
symmetric Ethernet over VDSL port (Asymmetric refers to
different upstream and downstream rates while symmetric
refers to similar rates.) – which is a BNC Connector.
The MCR200-1T/1CX can be a data transceiver capable of
operating as a Central Office (CO) or Customer Premises
Equipment (CPE) mode via a DIP switch. The MCR2001T/1CX asymmetric performance is up to 100/65Mbps at
200m and up to 25/5Mbps for 3km. The MCR200-1T/1CX
symmetric performance is up to 100/100Mbps at 200m and up
to 17/13Mbps for 3km.

This capability is ideal for use as an Ethernet extender for your
existing Ethernet network.
The MCR200-1T/1CX Converter provides a cost-effective and
efficient analog migration to Long Reach Ethernet (LRE)
networks.
The cable specifications of the connection are listed as
follows:
• 10Base-T, Category 3, 4 or 5 UTP
• 100Base-TX, Category 5, 5e or 6 UTP
• Ethernet over VDSL2, Coaxial cable (50 or 75 ohm)
The following illustrations are typical application diagrams for
the MCR200-1T/1CX.
Note: A Slave device (CPE) must connect to a Master device
(CO) through 50 or 75 ohm coaxial cable. It does not allow
such connections from Master to Master or Slave to Slave.
