3.3 CONNECTING THE TWISTED-PAIR LINE INTERFACE
The
ME0011A-vDSL
supports communication between two peer Ethernet
LAN sites over a distance of up to 6,652 ft (2.03 km) over 24 AWG
(0.5 mm) twisted-pair wire.
Note
Actual distance and link performance may vary depending on
the environment and type/gauge of wire used.
Follow the steps below to connect the
ME0011A-vDSL
Interfaces.
Note
The
ME0011A-vDSL
units work in pairs.
1. To function properly, the two
ME0011A-vDSL
s must be connected
together using twisted-pair, unconditioned, dry, metal wire, between
19 (0.9mm) and 26 AWG (0.4mm). Leased circuits that run through
signal equalization equipment are not acceptable.
2. The
ME0011A-vDSL
is equipped with two interface jacks that can be used
on the VDSL interface, an RJ-45 or a terminal block. These VDSL
interfaces are a two-wire interface. Observe the signal/pin relation-
ships on the
units
VDSL interface jacks.
The RJ-45 connector on the
ME0011A-vDSL
's twisted pair interface is polar-
ity insensitive and is wired for a two-wire interface. The signal/pin rela-
tionship is shown in Figure 4.
