VES-1124 User’s Guide
Chapter 1
This chapter describes the key features, benefits and applications of the VES-1124.
The VES-1124 is a stand-alone layer-2 VDSL over Ethernet switch with two Telco-50 connector port for 24 VDSL and 24 POTS/ISDN connections. The VES-1124 also comes with two 10/100Base-TX uplink ports.
With its built-in web configurator, managing and configuring the switch is easy. From cabinet management to portlevel control and monitoring, you can visually configure and manage your network via the web browser. Just click your mouse instead of typing cryptic command strings. In addition, the switch can also be managed via Telnet, the console port, or third-party SNMP management
The next two sections describe the hardware and firmware features of the VES.
1.2.1Hardware Features
QAM Modulation
The VES, combined with the Prestige 841 VDSL modem, provides service providers a QAM (quadrature amplitude modulation)-based VDSL solution.
Band Plan Support
The VES supports various VDSL band plans (ETSI, ANSI/ETSI and 10 BaseS).
Two Telco-50 Connection Ports
There are two Telco-50 connectors for 24 VDSL and POTS/ISDN connections respectively.
10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet Ports
The two Ethernet ports allow you to aggregate the ports into one logical link. This provides the opportunity for a faster network connection.
They allow for the VES to connect to:
A second level switch

1-1 |
VES-1124 User’s Guide
Daisy-chain to other switches
Integrated Splitters
The integrated DSL/ISDN splitter eliminates the need to use external splitters that separate the voice-band and DSL signals.
Console Port
Use the console port for local management of the switch.
Fans
The fans cool the VES sufficiently to allow reliable operation of the switch in even poorly ventilated rooms or basements.
1.2.2Firmware Features
IP Protocols
IP Host (No routing)
Telnet for configuration and monitoring
SNMP for management
•SNMP MIB II (RFC 1213)
•SNMP v1 RFC 1157
•SNMPv2, SNMPv2c or later version, compliant with RFC 2011 SNMPv2 MIB for IP, RFC 2012 SNMPv2 MIB for TCP, RFC 2013 SNMPv2 MIB for UDP
•Ethernet MIBs RFC 1643

Port Link Aggregation
The VES adheres to the 802.3ad standard for static and dynamic port trunking.
Bandwidth Control
The VES supports rate limiting in 64Kbps increments allowing you to create different service plans
The VES supports IGMP snooping enabling group multicast traffic to be only forwarded to ports that are members of that group; thus allowing you to significantly reduce multicast traffic passing through your switch.
Broadcast storm control
Quality of Service
Two priority queues so you can ensure mission-critical data gets delivered on time.
Follows the IEEE 802.1p priority setting standard.
STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) / RSTP (Rapid STP)
(R)STP detects and breaks network loops and provides backup links between switches, bridges or routers. It allows a switch to interact with other (R)STP -compliant switches in your network to ensure that only one path exists between any two stations on the network.
IGMP Snooping
With IGMP snooping, group multicast traffic is only forwarded to ports that are members of that group. IGMP Snooping generates no additional network traffic, allowing you to significantly reduce multicast traffic passing through your switch.

VES-1124 User’s Guide
Cluster Management
Cluster Management allows you to manage switches through one switch, called the cluster manager. The switches must be directly connected and be in the same VLAN group so as to be able to communicate with one another.
These are the main applications for the VES:
Internet access and multimedia services for Multiple Tenant Units (MTU).
Other applications include telemedicine, surveillance systems, remote servers systems, cellular base stations and high-quality teleconferencing.
1.3.1MTU Application
The following diagram depicts a typical application of the VES with Prestige 841 VDSL modems, in a large residential building, or multiple tenant unit (MTU), that leverages existing phone line wiring to provide Internet access to all tenants. Note that VDSL service can coexist with voice service on the same line.
Figure 1-1 MTU Application
1.3.2Curbside Application
The VES can also be used by an Internet Service Provider (ISP) in a street cabinet to form a “mini POP (Point-of- Presence)” to provide broadband services to residential areas that are too far away from the ISP to avail of DSL services. Residents need a VDSL modem, for example the Prestige 841, connected as shown in the previous figure.

Chapter 2
This chapter shows two switch installation scenarios.
The switch can be placed on a desktop or rack-mounted on a standard EIA rack. Use the rubber feet in a desktop installation and the brackets in a rack-mounted installation.
For proper ventilation, allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of clearance at the front and 3.4 inches (8 cm) at the back of the switch. This is especially important for enclosed rack installations.
1.Make sure the switch is clean and dry.
2.Set the switch on a smooth, level surface strong enough to support the weight of the switch and the connected cables. Make sure there is a power outlet nearby.
3.Make sure there is enough clearance around the switch to allow air circulation and the attachment of cables and the power cord.
4.Remove the adhesive backing from the rubber feet.
5.Attach the rubber feet to each corner on the bottom of the switch. These rubber feet help protect the switch from shock or vibration and ensure space between switches when stacking.
Figure 2-1 Attaching Rubber Feet
Do not block the ventilation holes. Leave space between switches when stacking.
Hardware Installation |
2-1 |
VES-1124 User’s Guide
The switch can be mounted on an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack or in a wiring closet with other equipment. Follow the steps below to mount your switch on a standard EIA rack using a rack-mounting kit.
1.Align one bracket with the holes on one side of the switch and secure it with the bracket screws smaller than the rack-mounting screws.
2.Attach the other bracket in a similar fashion.
Figure 2-2 Attaching Mounting Brackets and Screws
3.After attaching both mounting brackets, position the switch in the rack by lining up the holes in the brackets with the appropriate holes on the rack. Secure the switch to the rack with the rack-mounting screws.

3.1.1Console Port Connection
For local management, you can use a computer with terminal emulation software configured to the following parameters:
VT100 terminal emulation |
9600 bps |
No parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit |
No flow control |
Connect the male 9-pin end of the console cable to the console port of the VES. Connect the female end to a serial port (COM1, COM2 or other COM port) of your computer.
3.1.2VDSL Port Connections
Connect the lines from the user equipment (VDSL modems) to the USER port and the lines from the central office switch or PBX (Private Branch Exchange) to the CO port. Make sure that the USER line and the CO lines are not shorted on the MDF (Main Distribution Frame).
Hardware Connections |
3-1 |
VES-1124 User’s Guide
The line from the user carries both the VDSL and the voice signals. For each line, the VES has a built-in splitter that separates the high frequency VDSL signal from the voice band signal and feeds the VDSL signal to the VES, while the voice band signal is diverted to the CO port.
3.1.310/100M Auto-Sensing Ethernet
The VES has 10/100Mbps auto-sensing Ethernet ports. There are two factors related to Ethernet: speed and duplex mode. In 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet, the speed can be 10Mbps or 100Mbps and the duplex mode can be half duplex or full duplex. The auto-negotiation capability makes one Ethernet port able to negotiate with a peer automatically to obtain the connection speed and duplex mode that both ends support.
When auto-negotiation is turned on, an Ethernet port on the VES negotiates with the peer automatically to determine the connection speed and duplex mode. If the peer Ethernet port does not support auto-negotiation or turns off this feature, the VES determines the connection speed by detecting the signal on the cable and using half duplex mode. When the VES’s auto-negotiation is turned off, an Ethernet port uses the pre-configured speed and duplex mode when making a connection, thus requiring you to make sure that the settings of the peer Ethernet port are the same in order to connect.
You may also bundle the two Ethernet ports into one logical 200Mbps link.
Default Settings
The factory default settings for the Ethernet ports of the VES are:
Speed: Auto
Duplex: Auto
Flow control: Enable
Trunking: Disabled
Use a straight through Ethernet cable when connecting the VES to an Ethernet switch. Use a crossover Ethernet cable if you are daisy-chaining multiple VESes and make sure trunking is disabled.
