1. Introduction
This chapter describes the TW-EA400 ADSL Router and its features and gives
a brief introduction to ADSL technology.
1.1 Router Description and Operation
TW-EA400 ADSL Router combines an “always-on” high speed Asymmetric
Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) connection to the telephone line into a single
cost-effective solution.
TW-EA400 ADSL Router is compliant with the full-rate ANSI T1.413 Issue 2
and ITU G.dmt (G.992.1) ADSL standards, and with the splitterless ITU G.lite
(G.992.2) specification. Both Annex A (ADSL over POTS) and Annex B (ADSL
over ISDN) of G.992.1 and G.992.2 are supported. This rate-adaptive solution
is designed for Customer Premise Equipment and supports downstream data
rates of up to 8 Mbps and upstream data rates of up to 1 Mbps.
TW-EA400 ADSL Router simultaneously supports Ethernet to enable the
widest array of host connectivity. The Router performs ATM Segmentation and
Reassembly (SAR), industry standards for PPP over ATM (RFC 2364),
bridged/routed Ethernet over ATM (RFC 1483), Classical IP over ATM (RFC
1577), and PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516), resulting in a cost-effective
solution suitable for both full rate and G.lite applications. The non-reliance on
host PC software drivers make the TW-EA400 ADSL Router ideal for
ubiquitous broadband connectivity that is not limited by host OS, processor
type/speed, or memory.
Networking support includes both bridge and router modes. Router Mode
supports advanced features such as Network Address Translation (NAT),
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), and Routing Information
Protocol (RIPv2).
All setup and provisioning is performed by a simple, easy-to-use, Web
interface.
1.2 ADSL Technology
Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) is an access technology that
utilizes ordinary copper telephone lines to enable broadband high-speed digital
data transmission and interactive multimedia applications for business and
residential customers. Using existing copper telephone lines forgoes the need
for upgrading or adding expensive new cable.
ADSL devices use digital coding techniques that greatly increase the potential
capacity of phone lines without interfering with regular telephone services. For
the ADSL user, this means much faster data communications and the potential
for interactive video capabilities. ADSL devices make it possible to enjoy
benefits such as high-speed Internet access, telecommuting (remote LAN
access), collaborative computing, distance learning, movies on demand and
multi-player video gaming, without experiencing any loss of quality or
disruption of voice/fax telephone capabilities.

ADSL provides a dedicated service over a single telephone line operating at
speeds of up to 8 Mbps downstream (to the user) and up to 1 Mbps upstream
(to the ADSL service provider’s central office). Actual data rates depend on the
transceiver implementation, loop length, impairments, and transmitted power.
These conditions are ideal for many time sensitive user applications. A secure
point-to-point connection is established between the user and the central office
of the ADSL service provider. The user is always connected thus eliminating
dial-up time and simplifying connectivity issues.
TW-EA400 ADSL Router device is based upon a scalable architecture. This
architecture enables the device set to support splitterless G.lite as well as
splittered and splitterless full-rate ADSL. G.lite enables telephone companies
to deploy consumeroriented, “always on” 1.5 Mbps Internet access services
without the need for splitter equipment, micro-filters, or wiring changes at the
customer premises.

2 Hardware Installation
This section discusses the cable connections you will need to make in order to
use the Router. When selecting the location for the Router, allow room to
access the connections on the rear panel. You will want to place the Router so
that you will be able to see the LED indicators on the front panel.
It may be convenient for you locate the Router near the PC you intend to use
for initial configuration of the Router.
2.1 Connect the Power
Insert the Power Adapter cord into the power receptacle located on the rear
panel of the Router and plug the adapter into a nearby power source. You
should see the Power LED indicator light up and remain lit.
2.2 Connect ADSL Line
You can use the twisted-pair ADSL cable (standard telephone cable) included
with the Router to connect to your telephone line. Simply plug one end of the
cable into the LINE port (RJ-11 receptacle) on the rear panel of the Router and
insert the other end into the wall jack. This connection provides the link
between the Router and the ISPs network including access to the Internet.
2.3 Connect Ethernet LAN to Router
The Router may be connected to any 10/100BASE-T Ethernet LAN or Ethernet
concentrating device. Connection to an Ethernet concentrating device such as
a switch or hub should use standard twisted-pair cable with RJ-45 connectors.
The dedicated RJ-45 port on the Router are a crossed (MDI-X) connection
ports. Follow standard Ethernet guidelines when deciding what type of cable to
use to make this connection.
Use straight-through cable when connecting the Router to a normal (MDI-X)
port on a switch or hub. Use crossed cable when connecting it to an uplink
(MDI-II) on a hub or switch. When connecting the Router directly to a PC or
server use a straight-through cable. A valid connection will be indicated by the
Link LED indicator corresponding to the connected port.
2.4 Reset
The TW-EA400 comes with a reset button built into the rear panel. Use this
button to restore the factory default settings.
