• CLI Operation and Configuration
Local and Remote
This will set the Ethernet Extender as Local or Remote. Local is typically used at the network, Remote is typi-
cally used at the remote device or remote network. Your CopperLink CL1300MDE is already configured with
port C1 as Remote and C2 as Local.
node(cfg)# mode {local|remote}
Annex Type
Please consult Patton Technical Support before changing this setting.
node~(pf-dsl)[<name>]# annex-type { b-g | a-f }
Line Rate Configuration
This will increase the line rate of the CL1300MDE. Your CopperLink 1300 is defaulted to automatically select
the optimal rate based on the distance (adaptive).
node(prt-line)[0/0]# payload-rate {adaptive [max <192..15296>] | <192..15296>}
Modulation Scheme
Note higher TC-PAM rates will increase maximum payload rates available but will decrease distance. Your
CopperLink CL1300MDE is defaulted to automatically select the optimal setting. Please consult manual for
rate reach chart to determine your optimal setting if you choose to hard set this value. Higher TC-PAM rates
are ideal for shorter cable runs offering max symmetrical (upstream/downstream) speeds of 11.4 Mbps
(TCPAM64) and 15.3 Mbps (TCPAM128) per pair.
node(prt-line)[0/0]# tcpam {auto(16/32) | auto(64/128) | 16 | 32 | 64 | 128}
Signal to Noise Ratio
Configures the acceptable noise margin for adaptive rate. SNR is the relative strength of the DSL signal to
Noise ratio. 6dB is generally the lowest dB recommended in order for the modem to be able to sync. Generally
speaking, as overall bandwidth increases, your signal to noise ratio decreases. The higher the number the better.
Your CL1300MDE is defaulted at 6 giving you the highest likelihood to connect.
node(prt-line)[0/0]# snr-margin <-10..22>
Description
This is the description of the port/line (CopperLink connection). (Ex: "This line goes to building 4") When
entering a description with spaces in the text, the description must be in quotations.
node~(prt-dsl)[0/0]# description <description>
Service Mode
Configures the number of pairs (wires) you want to use. The CL1300MDE will default to the maximum num-
ber of wires available on your version of the CopperLink: CL1314 (2-wire) or CL1324 (4-wire).
node~(prt-dsl)[0/0]# service-mode { 2-wire | 4-wire }
