■ VDSL2 and POTS interface (Port-1~Port-8)
There are 8 VDSL2 ports and 8 POTS ports with Screw less Spring Terminal Block connector on the front panel. The
advantage of Screw less Spring Terminal Block connector is no need to fabricate RJ-11 type phone connector in the
Equipment Room. And no need extra phone line patch panel. Each port is built-in POTS splitter that helps the voice of
telephone and data of network applications transmitting at the same wire without interrupted.
The VDSL2 supports auto detection transmission rate that operate in different band allocation and result in different
upstream and downstream bandwidth.
And Due to different telephone line quality, cross talk or extension distance may affect actual achievable speed; you can
configure individual port in built-in management interface for optimized connectivity.
1. The payload rate is about 9% less than the line rate due to framing overhead.
2. AWG 26 (0.4mm) cable can also be used but the distance is 20% to 40% shorter than
above table.
3. Each terminated b ri dg e t ap ca n r e duc e th e VDSL link distance by 90m.The quality of the
cable, the size of the cable bundles, and the cross talk within the bundle, can also affect
other overall reach.

Connect the fiber cable
1. Attach the duplex LC connector on the network cable into the SFP transceiver.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a device – switches with SFP installed, fiber NIC on a workstation or a Media
Converter..
3. Check the LNK/ACT LED of the SFP s lot on the front of the VDSL2 Switch. Ensure that the SFP transceiver is
operating correctly.
4. Check the Link mod e of the S F P por t if t he l i nk f ai led . Co works with some fiber-NICs or Media Converters, set the
Link mode to “1000 Force” is needed.
There is a known SFP operation issue, please insert the transceiver into the SFP slot first.
Then connect the fiber cable, or the Fiber link might be failed.
Remove the tran sceiver module
1. Make sure there is no network activity by consult or check with the network administrator. Or through the
management interface of the switch/converter (if available) to disable the port in advance.

2.2.4 Wiring for VDSL ports
The VDSL2 ports of VC-810S / VC-810S48 use Screwless Spring Terminal Block connector to connect to 8 VDSL2
Converters (VC-210- Ethernet over VDSL2 Media Converter) through structured or unstructured wiring, such as existing
telephone lines. The advantages of Screwless Terminal Block as below:
- Fast and maintenance-free connection regardless of the skills of the installer
- Vibration and shock resistant
The link between the VDSL2 Switch port and each Converter can reach speeds of u p to 100/55 Mbps o ver distances of up
to1km. The network manager or ISP/Telecom operator can hot swap the VDSL2 Converters without powering down the
VDSL2 Switch or disrup ti n g t he ot h e r S wit c h por ts.
If telephone services, such as voice or Fax, use the same cabling as VDSL2 traffic, the VDSL2 port is built-in POTS (Plain
Old Telephone Service) splitter that helps the voice of telephone and data of network applications transmitting at the same
wire without interrupted. The splitter routes VDSL2 data (high-frequency) and voice (low-frequency) traffic from the
telephone line to the VDSL2 Switch and private branch exchange (PBX) switch or public switched telephone network
(PSTN).
The connection diagram is as the following:
Figure 2-10 VDSL2 link diagram
If the port is connected but the relevant LED is dark, check the following items:
1. The VDSL2 Switch and the connected device’s power are on or not.
2. The connecting cable is good and with correct type.
3. The cable is firmly seated in its connectors in the Switch and in the associated device.
4. The connecting device, including any network adapter is well installed and functioning.
5. Confirm the CPE (VC-201) is set to CPE mode. Check the DIP switch at the rear panel.
6. Confirm the CPE (VC-201) device is implemented within the scope of operative without inter f er e nce .

Connecting the 2-Pair telephone wire
1 Using a wire cutter, cut off the bare wire just below the plastic insulation on all two wires.
2 Then use a wire stripper to strip off about 1cm (1/2”) of the insulation from both ends of each wire. As the Figure 2-11
appears.
3 Some trial and error may be necessary to ensure the insula tion is cu t and no t the w ire w hen i t i s placed i n the no tch of
the cutting blades.
4 This will give you a clean piece of wire for the new connection to the Screwless Terminal Block connector. As the
Figure 2-12 appears.
5 The 'pu sh-in' design allows tool-less insertion of twist phone wires.
6 If needed, strip the wires that are already attached to the VDSL2 ports of the VDSL2 Switch.
