If additional telephone services such as voice or ISDN traffic will be carried on
the same telephone lines, a plain old telephone service (POTS) splitter can be
installed to separate LRE traffic from other telephone services. The splitter routes
the high-frequency LRE data to the switch and the low-frequency telephone
services to the private branch exchange (PBX) switch or public switched
telephone network (PSTN).
For limitations and restrictions on when you use a POTS splitter with the
Catalyst 2950 LRE switches and Cisco LRE CPE devices, see the
“Connecting to
a Telephone” section on page 2-24
.
In a typical installation, a CPE is installed in each room of a multidwelling tenant
building. The CPE data rates and profile settings are controlled by a
Catalyst 2950 LRE switch.
