managing multiple applications and m ixed-mode packet-based services −
including high-speed Internet access − at price points expected of singlefunction devices.
The WANsuite 5650 is a G.shdsl/TDM network termination unit (NTU)

2.312 Mbps to 192 kbps. Its spectral compatibility with other DSL services
and extended reach and rate capabilities make G.shdsl the preferable
broadband service delivery mechanism over copper lines for today's service
provider. By extending the addressable market, more end users than ever
before will now be able to obtain true broadband services.

Flexible User Interfaces
The WANsuite 5650 is equipped with two end-user interfaces: a multiprotocol DCE port and a G.703 port. The multi-protocol serial interface can
be easily set by the end user for V.35, V.36, or X.21 to meet your specific
data communications needs. The G.703 port provides you up to 2.048 Mbps
(E1) of bandwidth for your telecommunications equipment. Maximum

flexibility or utilization of the SHDSL pipe is achieved by allowing for the
assignment of the individual timeslots to the desired end-user port.
Simple Installation, Management and Troubleshooting
The WANsuite 5650 has been designed for simple installation, management
and troubleshooting. Power and communications interfaces are easily
accessed on the rear panel. The nine tri-color LEDs on the front panel
provide quick and easily recognizable status indications of unit operation.
The WANsuite 5650 supports the full set of standard EOC commands
allowing for remote management of the NTU from the DSLAM/switch. The
local supervisory port can also be utilized for management of the unit in
conjunction with a comprehensive set of VT100 screens. The four input
control buttons on the front panel of the WANsuite 5650 provide a simplified
means of troubleshooting by accessing unit diagnostic loops.

NOTICE:
Because the WANsuite 5650 does not employ an internal battery or time
chip, the unit will not retain time and date information in the event of a
power failure. The unit marks time beginning at 00:00 with each power
cycle.
