DIP Switch Settings - Transmitter
The Transmitter Unit has a 4-position DIP switch for conguration of Side, Channel,
Rate Limit, and SNR.
For initial setup, DIP switch 1 is usually set to the upward (OFF) position, ensuring the
unit is set to CO mode (Receiver Unit set to CPE mode by default).
When using the 410VDSLEXT2, one end (Transmitter or Receiver) must always be set to
“CO” mode, while the opposite end must always be set to “CPE” mode.
Setting each unit to CO or CPE mode is usually based on which direction you want
the most bandwidth delivered. “Download” bandwidth, data sent from CO to CPE, is
generally higher than “Upload” bandwidth from CPE to CO.
• If you need higher bandwidth from the Transmitter Unit to the Receiver Unit, set DIP
switch 1 to the upward (OFF) position.
• If you need higher bandwidth from the Receiver Unit to the Transmitter Unit, set DIP
switch 1 to the downward (ON) position.
See the “Conguration Mode Select” section below to set the Receiver Unit to the
appropriate CO or CPE mode based on the mode that was set on the Transmitter Units
DIP Switch setting.
Pin 1 - CO, CPE Switch
OFF: If Pin 1 is in the OFF position, the Transmitter Unit will operate in Central Oce
(CO) mode.
ON: If Pin 1 is in the ON position, the Transmitter Unit will operate in Customer Premise
Equipment (CPE) mode.

QoS Setting
Priority Classication
Enable QoS function based on the selected priority mode. If you need to start QoS
function, please make sure you visit this page rst and enable the priority mode you
wish to apply; otherwise, the QoS function will not be activated.
Queue Scheduling Mode
There are two modes in “Queue Scheduling Mode”:
1. Strictly Priority: Services the queues based on priority only. As trac comes into
the modem, trac on the highest priority queue, Q3 is transmitted rst. When that
queue empties, trac on the next highest-priority queue, Q2 are transmitted until
Q2 empties, and then trac is transmitted on Q1 and so on. If a higher priority
queue is never empty, then trac on the lower priority will not be sent. The SP class
is typically for video applications that require a xed amount of bandwidth to be
considered for good quality.
2. Weight-Round-Robin: Services on a rotating basis and is activated only when a
port has more trac than it can handle. A queue is given an amount of bandwidth
irrespective of the incoming trac on that port. The queue then moves to the back
of the list. The next queue is given an equal amount of bandwidth, and then moves
to the end of the list, and so on, depending on the number of queues being used.
This works in a looping fashion until a queue is empty.
Choose what kind of algorithm you wish to apply and press the “Update” button to
save the settings.
Instruction Manual

Term Denition
QoS
Quality of Service
Refers to resource reservation control mechanisms rather than the achieved service
quality. QoS is the ability to provide dierent priority to dierent applications, users,
or data ows, or to guarantee a certain level of performance to a data ow.
SNR
Signal-to-noise Ratio
Is measure used in science and engineering to quantify how much a signal has
been corrupted by noise. It is dened as the ratio of signal power to the noise
power corrupting the signal. A ratio higher than 1:1 indicates more signal than
noise
TOS/
DSCP
Type of Service/ Diserv Codepoint
This uses the upper six bits in the ToS (Type of Service) byte to mark priority trac.
Hence, there are 64 possible codepoints.
VLAN
Tagging
VLAN tagging (IEEE 802.1Q) is a networking standard written by the IEEE 802.1
work group allowing multiple bridged networks to transparently share the same
physical network link without leakage of information between networks. VLAN
tagging denes the meaning of a Virtual LAN (VLAN) with respect to the specic
conceptual model underpinning bridging at the MAC layer and to the IEEE 802.1D
spanning tree protocol. This protocol allows for individual VLANs to communicate
with one another with the use of a switch with Layer-3 capabilities, or a router.
