Overview

This Ethernet-over-VDSL system consists of end-user CPEs (Customer Premise Equipment) connected to a VDSL switch by standard telephone cable. The VDSL connection delivers an Ethernet data link while simultaneously supporting standard telephone services. The system can be deployed in any multi-dwelling/multi-tenant environment (apartment blocks, hotels, or office complex) to provide both high-speed Internet access and telephone services without any need for re-wiring.

The VDSL switch has a built-in POTS splitter that combines both the data and phone signals coming from your Internet and telephone service providers, and passes these signals directly over standard telephone wiring to multiple users in the same building. A CPE is then used to separate these signals and pass them on to a customer’s computer and telephone equipment. Using the pre-defined profiles, in-building connections can operate up to 100 Mbps upstream and downstream for runs up to 200 meters (656 ft).

Note: Type-1 26 AWG (100 ohm)/0.4 mm, or Type-2 24 AWG (100

ohm)/0.5 mm cable may be installed to achieve the maximum distance. However, typically 24 AWG provides better performance than 26 AWG (100 ohm)/0.4 Note the distance may be limited by factors such as how the cable is bundled, and the interference and noise on the link.

BOUT THE TIGERACCESS

The VDSL switch is typically located in a wiring closet or other central location of a multi-dwelling/multi-tenant unit, campus or enterprise. An Internet connection is provided from the ISP to the customer’s building over fiber optic cable, running Ethernet directly over a 1 Gbps connection. (Trunking both uplink ports together can provide a 2 Gbps connection.) This kind of WAN connection is referred to as fiber To The Building (FTTB). The data and phone signals for each user are combined in the switch, and passed over VDSL lines to individual customers.

The CPE at the other end of the VDSL line connects to any PC or Macintosh equipped with a 10/100BASE-TX network interface card. Your existing telephone, modem, or fax machine simply plugs into the CPE’s phone port. There is no need for special terminators or filters. In fact, there is no need to modify your wiring at all. Since the VDSL connection is based on Ethernet, no further complex software configurations are required.

VDSL Technology

VDSL2 (Very High Bit-Rate Digital Subscriber Line) is at the high-end of all the DSL technologies, offering the best combination of fiber optic and copper to provide high-speed broadband Internet access. VDSL’s primary application is in providing a broadband data service to multi-tenant residential or commercial buildings. In this implementation, fiber optic cable carries data from an Internet Service Provider to the building; then the installed telephone copper wires take the data and deliver it to individual units within that building.

VDSL provides high-speed Internet access over existing phone lines by making use of previously unused frequency bandwidth above the voice band (i.e., up to 30 MHz with VDSL2). By placing VDSL signals above the frequency of the voice signal, a VDSL service can coexist on the as other telephone services. VDSL can operate same data rate in both directions, or a

VDSL can deliver high-performance online applications, such as high-quality video and other switched multimedia services. This Ethernet-over-VDSL system provides robust performance, with a maximum symmetric data rate of 100 Mbps for runs up to 200 meters (656 ft). This system is based on advanced VDSL2 Multi-Carrier Modulation (MCM) technology with adaptive channel equalization that overcomes bridge taps and other line distortions. Reed-Solomon Forward Error Correction and interleaving protect against errors due to impulse noise and enable recovery from signal interruptions. Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD) separates downstream and upstream channels and allows VDSL signals to coexist with regular telephone services. A power back-off mechanism is also implemented to reduce noise from crosstalk in line bundles.

Switch Architecture

The VDSL Switch employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all ports. This switch also features full-duplex capability on all ports, which effectively doubles the bandwidth of each connection.

For communications between different VLANs, this switch uses IP routing. For communications within the same VLAN, the switch uses store-and-forward switching to ensure maximum data integrity. With store-and-forward switching, the entire packet must be received into a buffer and checked for validity before being forwarded. This prevents errors from being propagated throughout the network.

Network Management Options

This switch contains a comprehensive array of LEDs for “at-a-glance” monitoring of network and port status. It also includes a management agent that allows you to configure or monitor the switch using its embedded management software, or via SNMP applications. To manage the switch, you can make a direct connection to the console port (out-of-band), or you can manage the switch through a network

ESCRIPTION OF HARDWARE

connection (in-band) using Telnet, the on-board web agent, or SNMP-based network management software.

The management port provides a dedicated management channel that operates outside of the data transport network. This makes it possible to re-configure or troubleshoot the switch over either a local or remote connection when access via the data channel is not possible or deemed insecure.

For a detailed description of the switch’s advanced features, refer to the Management Guide.

Description of Hardware

This device is an intelligent Layer 2 VDSL2 switch with 16 VDSL ports for subscriber access to the data network, and two Gigabit Ethernet

combination ports 10/100/1000BASE-T ports shared with SFP transceiver slots (see Figure 1-1, Ports 17-18). The switch also includes one 10/100BASE-TX port for dedicated management access (which can be operated outside the data channel).

for uplink traffic. The uplink ports are implemented as

The VDSL switch combines data and voice signals for delivery over standard telephone cable to multiple users in residential or commercial buildings. Ethernet data signals are received on the switch uplink port(s) and passed to the 16 VDSL ports on the front panel via 16 internal Ethernet ports.

If an SFP transceiver is plugged in, the corresponding RJ-45 port (17 or 18) is disabled.

RJ-21 Ports

The RJ-21 ports on the switch front panel support 16 twisted-pair connections. The “Line” port connects to end-user CPEs through a punch-down box. The “POTS” port connects to the local PBX or directly to telephone lines from the CO.

1000BASE-T Ports

The switch contains two Gigabit RJ-45 ports shared with alternate Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots. The 1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports operate at 10/100 Mbps, half/full duplex, or at 1000 Mbps, full duplex. Because all of the RJ-45 ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs. (See “1000BASE-T Pin Assignments” on page B-3.)

Each of these ports support auto-negotiation, so the optimum transmission mode (half or full duplex), and data rate (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) can be selected automatically. If a device connected to one of these ports does not support auto-negotiation, the communication mode of that port can be configured manually.

1-6

ESCRIPTION OF HARDWARE

Each port also supports auto-negotiation of flow control, so the switch can automatically prevent port buffers from becoming saturated.

Note: If an SFP transceiver (purchased separately) is installed in a slot and

has a valid link on the port, the associated RJ-45 port is disabled.

SFP Slots

The Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots are shared with RJ-45 ports (ports 17~18). In its default configuration, if an SFP transceiver (purchased separately) is installed in a slot and has a valid link on its port, the associated RJ-45 port is disabled and cannot be used. The switch can also be configured to force the use of an RJ-45 port or SFP slot, as required.

Note that 1000BASE-SX transceivers use multimode duplex fiber cable, 1000BASE-LX and 1000BASE-ZX transceivers use single-mode duplex fiber cable.

Management Port

The 100BASE-TX port labeled “Mgmt” provides a dedicated management interface which is segregated from the data traffic crossing the other ports.

This port supports auto-negotiation, so the optimum data rate and transmission mode (10/100 Mbps at half/full duplex) can be selected automatically, if this feature is also supported by the attached device. However, note that the interface connection parameters of this port cannot be configured.

Console Port

The console port on the switch’s front panel is a DB-9 connector that enables a connection to a terminal for performing switch monitoring and configuration functions. The terminal may be a PC or workstation running terminal emulation software, or a terminal configured as a Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) connection. A null-modem wired serial cable is supplied with the switch for connecting to this interface.

Ethernet-over-VDSL CPE (Optional Equipment)

The VDSL switch is designed to connect to the RJ-11 VDSL Line port on a CPE. The CPE provides users with a high-speed Internet connection via the RJ-45 Ethernet port and a standard telephone connection via the RJ-11 phone jack.
