This Ethernet-Over-VDSL2 CPE
system consists of an end-user CPE (Customer
Premise Equipment) and a VDSL2 switch that are connected by standard telephone
cable. The VDSL connection delivers an Ethernet data link rated up to 100 Mbps
symmetric (full duplex), while simultaneously supporting standard telephone
services. The system can be deployed in any multi-dwelling/multi-tenant
environment (apartment blocks, hotels, or office complexes) to provide both
high-speed Internet access and telephone services without any need for
re-wiring. The CPE at the customer end of the VDSL line connects to any PC or
Macintosh equipped with a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX network interface card. Your
existing telephone, modem, or fax machine simply plugs into the CPE’s phone
port. There is no need for splitters, terminators, or filters. In fact, there
is no need to modify the home wiring at all. And because the VDSL connection
is based on Ethernet, no complex software configuration is required.
