1.1 RADIO AND TV INTERFERENCE (FCC PART 15)
This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy, and if not
installed and used properly—that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions—may cause interference to radio and television
reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class A computing device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide
reasonable protection from such interference in a commercial installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If the equipment causes interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by disconnecting the
cables, try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures: moving the computing equipment away from the receiver, reorienting the receiving antenna, and/or plugging the receiving equipment
into a different AC outlet (such that the computing equipment and
receiver are on different branches).

2.2 DESCRIPTION
The Patton Electronics VLINK/CO and VLINK/CP VDSL modems provide
high-speed LAN connections between peered Ethernet LANs, remote
PCs, or any other network enabled 10/100Base-T device.
Operating in pairs, a VLINK/CO (centr al office) located at one end of the
LAN extension and a VLINK/CP (customer premise) at the other end,
these units can automatically forward LAN broadcasts, multicasts, and
frames across a 2-wire voice-grade twisted-pair link. The data is passed
transparently (unmodified) through the VLINK modems . The VLINK
modems automatically add and delete MAC addresses, only passing
packets across the VDSL link that are meant for the remote peered LAN.
Figure 1.
Typical application
The VLINK/CO modem and VLINK/CP modem work together to create a
transparent extension between two peered Ethernet LANs. POTS/ISDN
calls can be made over a VDSL link without interfering with the data.
Figure 1 shows a typical point-to-point application.

3.0 INSTALLATION
Because the VLINK modem requires no configuration, it can be installed
quickly. If you are installing a standalone unit, refer to section 3.1 “Standalone unit installation”. Otherwise , ref er to section 3.2 “Rack card installation”.
Note
If asymmetric transmission or line rates other than 12.5 Mbps
are required, refer to section 4.0, “Configuration” on page 13.
3.1 STANDALONE UNIT INSTALLATION
Do the following:
1. Connect the line interface between the units (refer to section 3.3,
“Connecting the Twisted-Pair Line Interface” on page 10)
Note
See Figure 2 for the standalone unit’s rear panel arrangements.
2. Connect the Ethernet interface (refer to section 3.4, “Connecting the
10/100Base-T Ethernet Interface” on page 11).
3. Connect the power plug (refer to section 3.6, “Connecting Power” on
page 12).

3.2 RACK CARD INSTALLATION
The VLINK modem rack card comprised a front card and a rear card.Do
the following to install the cards into the rack chassis:
1. Slide the rear card into the back of the chassis along the metal rails.
2. Secure the rear card using the supplied metal screws.
3. Slide the front card into the chassis until you feel resistance as the
front card engages the rear card. When that happens,
gently
push
the front card forward until it is fully seated in the card-edge receptacle of the rear card (it should
click
into place).
4. Secure the front card using the captive fasteners.
Note
The Model 1001R14 chassis supports “hot swapping” of cards,
so it is not necessary to power down the rack when you install or
remove a VLINK modem rack card.
