Bandwidth of 5 to 15 Mbps Per Port in Full Duplex
Allows building owners and service providers to offer a variety of
value-added services ranging from broadband Internet access to
bandwidth-consuming video applications.
Broadband over Existing Telephone Wires
With VDSL, broadband service could be offered using the existing
copper wires. New revenue could be generated with minimum
installation time and expense.
Co-existence with Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS),
Digital Phones and ISDN
VDSL can be implemented quickly, even if building owners have
just one phone line per tenant. The existing POTS or ISDN
services could be kept while adding new broadband services.
New Advances for Broadband Service Offering
The VLAN feature in the VES-1012 offers the benefits of both
security and performance. Multicasting design improves network
bandwidth utilization for bandwidth-consuming application, such
as video on demand. New mechanisms, such as 802.1p, have
also emerged to ensure quality of service. The new advances in
the VES-1012 enable service providers to turn on broadband
service to more customers quickly and at a lower cost than
previously possible.
MTU-oriented Services
When service providers bring fiber closer to the end users, VDSL
becomes the best solution for delivering broadband service to
people working or living insides the buildings, such as business
parks, apartments, dormitories, campus and hospitality.
Scalable Platform for Future Expansion
The flexible design of the VES-1012 allows service providers to
start VDSL service at a minimum cost. As the number of
subscribers and applications grow, the additional VES-1012 can
be added to increase the available customer base.
VDSL, the fastest offering of DSL, provides a
much higher bandwidth than other DSL
technologies. Ethernet over VDSL extends
Ethernet over single-pair copper wiring at
distances of up to 1.5km. This technology
provides a cost-effective, readily available, and
rapidly deployable solution that offers needed
bandwidth to multi-tenant units (MTUs).
VDSL has changed the fundamental economics
of broadband services for the MTU marketplace.
Tenants don’t have to suffer the limited
bandwidth. Even small to medium-sized
corporations can receive the same services as
large companies. With VDSL, MTUs gain a cost-
effective broadband solution that preserves their
existing infrastructure, and in the process,
building owners or service providers receive a
compelling new source for revenue generation.
ZyXEL’s VDSL solution is comprised of a VDSL
Ethernet switch, the VES-1012, and a CPE
modem, the Prestige841. The VES-1012
multiplexes traffic from 8 or 12 VDSL
subscribers into two 100M Ethernet ports that
connect to any Ethernet switch or broadband
router. With the VES-1012, Ethernet over VDSL
can run up to 1.5km at the speed of 5Mbps,
which proves to be a promising technology and
revenue generation tool for building owners and
service providers.
