3.1 Connecting the MediaAccess Gateway to your Service
Provider’s Network
Introduction
This section helps you to connect the MediaAccess Gateway to your service provider’s network.
Signal arriving at your home
The
Line
signal that arrives at your home consists the following components:
A
Phone
signal carrying the traffic for telephony.
A
DSL
signal carrying the Internet traffic.
DSL Gateways have a built-in solution to remove the
Phone
component. No additional devices are needed, you can
connect them directly to the
Line
.
Telephones do not have this capability, so here you have to use a filter or splitter to remove the
DSL
signal.
What does a filter/splitter look like
A splitter/filter is a box that typically has the following connectors:
A
Line
input
This connector must be connected to the input signal that needs to be filtered.
A
Phone/PSTN
output
This connector offers filtered output signal. It only contains the
Voice
component and can only be used for connecting
phones.
A
Modem/DSL
output (optional)
This connector offers unfiltered output. It contains both the
Phone
and
DSL
signal and can be used to connect your
MediaAccess Gateway.
Connecting the cables
The procedure to be followed depends on the fact if this filter has been integrated into your MediaAccess Gateway or not.
Check the label of your MediaAccess Gateway. If the product name contains:
“wIF” (for example MediaAccess TG788vn v2
wIF
) then your MediaAccess Gateway has an integrated filter. No external
filters are needed. Follow the steps described in
“Scenario 2: A MediaAccess Gateway without integrated filter” on page 21
.
No “wiF”
(for example MediaAccess TG788vn v2) then your MediaAccess Gateway does
not
have an integrated filter.
Follow the steps described in
“Scenario 2: A MediaAccess Gateway without integrated filter” on page 21
.
This
Phone
signal is only used for communication over the traditional telephone network (PSTN). Voice over IP
communication will be carried by the
DSL
signal.
