1.2 Introduction to Ethernet over VDSL2 Bridge
PLANET’s state-of-the-art Ethernet-over-VDSL2 products are
based on two core networking technologies: Ethernet and
VDSL2 (Very-high-data-rate Digital Subscriber Line 2). This
technology offers the absolute fastest possible data transmission
speeds over existing copper telephone lines without the need for
rewiring.
The VC-231 / VC-234 Ethernet Over VDSL2 Converter / Bridge
has switching architecture with RJ-45 10/100Mbps Ethernet port
and one symmetric Ethernet over VDSL port (symmetry means
upstream and downstream rate are the same or similar) – the
VDSL port can be RJ-11 connectors. The VC-231 / VC-234 can
be set to CO mode or CPE mode via a DIP switch, when the
VC-231 / VC-234-CO is used to connect to the other VC-231 /
VC-234-CPE as a standalone pair, up to 100/100Mbps symmetric
data rate within 300m and up to 50/2Mbps asymmetric data
