This document is intended for First Office Acceptance test plan for NetComm’s ADSL2+
Broadband Access Switch solution (BAS). The Netcomm NCT240 Broadband Access Switch
contains 24 ADSL2/2+ circuits to deliver high-speed data, video and voice service over traditional
twisted copper pairs by using DSL technology.
To meet the increasing demand for high-speed internet access and triple play application
services. The next generation network offers a feasible functionality of integrated ser vices with
the most cost effective architecture. Next generation broadband access networks are designed
to provide rich video contents, DSL, POTS and VoIP services over traditional copper wire
infrastructure. These types of services will be supported on NGN architecture simultaneously.
DSL is used as the data service platform for traditional POTS technology which is used for voice
services. The multimedia and local content-rich applications can also be easily implemented on
this NGN architecture.
xDSL (Digital Subscriber Line) is a technology for delivering high-bandwidth information over
copper telephone lines. xDSL service can deliver POTS and high date rate services simultaneously
over a single twisted-wire pair. The POTS and data service are simultaneous and independent;
the xDSL data service does not affect the POTS service. xDSL uses the bandwidth above the 4-kHz
POTS frequency to transmit duplex data using digital modulation techniques from the C.O side to
the Customer Premises Equipment (CPE).
ADSL is a form of xDSL service that delivers an asymmetric data rate over a twisted copper pair.
ADSL delivers a higher rate downstream, towards the customer premises and lower rate
upstream, from the customer premises. ITU standard compliant Full-Rate ADSL2+ can deliver
data rates up to 25 Mbps downstream and 1 Mbps upstream; Full-Rate ADSL can deliver data rates
up to 8 Mbps downstream and 800 kbps upstream; G.Lite ADSL can deliver up to 1.5 Mbps
downstream and 512 kbps upstream. The actual data rate depends on the length, gauge, and
condition of the twisted-wire pair, the bandwidth of the uplink depends on the data network,
and the capacity of the network service provider.
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) dominates broadband market. The position of national telecom
operators in most countries has given the advantage in reaching out to customers with
broadband services over DSL.
The NCT240 Access system contains 24 ADSL2/2+ circuits to deliver high-speed data service over
twisted copper pairs using industry standard Discrete Multi-Tone (DMT) line coding technology.
The NCT240 complies with full-rate ADSL in accordance with ANSI T1.413 Issue 2, ITU-T G.992.1
(G.dmt), ITU-T G.992.2 (G.lite)ITU-T G.992.3 ( ADSL2) and ITU G.992.5 (G.ADSL2+) protocols.
The NCT240 greatly expand broadband capabilities in the access network, enhancing the
infrastructure for emerging servic es. With simple in-service upgrades, service provid ers obtain
the capacity and Quality of Service (QoS) to support larger populations of narrowband and
broadband users. For management, NCT240 can be easily configured by SNMP, T elnet, SSH, HTTP,
HTTPS and RS-232 console.

Mounting
The NCT240 may be mounted on any flat surface, such as a shelf, or in a rack. Before you start
installing the access switch, make sure you can provide the right operating environment,
including power requirements, sufficient physical space, and proxim ity to other network devices
that are to be connected. Verify the following installation requirements:
• Power requirements: 100 to 240 VAC (± 10%) at 50 to 60 Hz (± 3 Hz). The access switch power
supplies automatically adjust to the input voltage level. Make sure that a properly grounded
power outlet is within 2.5 m (8 ft) of the access switch.
• The access switch should be located in a cool dry place, with at least 10 cm (4 in.)of space on
the sides for ventilation.
• Place the access switch out of direct sunlight, and away from heat sources or areas with a high
amount of electromagnetic interference. The temperature and humidity should be within the
ranges listed in the specifications.
• If you intend to mount the access switch in a rack, make sure you have all the necessary
mounting screws, brackets, bolts and nuts, and the right tools.
• Check if network cables and connectors needed for installation are available.
• Be sure the access switch is within reach of the punch-down blocks for rear panel connections
that include DSL and splitter interface.

Installing Optional Modules
Before mounting the switch, be sure you install any optional modules. If you have purchased an
optional slide-in 1000BASE-T, SFP 1000BASE-X, install it now, and following the instructions
below.
To rack-mount devices:
1. Attach the brackets to the device using the screws provided in the Bracket Mounting Kit.
Figure 4-1. Attaching the Brackets
2. Mount the device in the rack, using four rack-mounting screws.

3. If installing a single switch only, turn to “Powering On the Switch” at the end of this chapter.
4. If installing several devices, we recommend using one stack for the switch, and another for
the others. This will keep the cabling straight and easy to maintain.
