VC-231GF

1-Port 1000BASE-X SFP + 1-Port RJ11 VDSL2 Converter

The VC-231GF, a PLANET Long Reach Ethernet (LRE) solution, is a Single-

port Gigabit Ethernet-over-VDSL2 Converter for connecting ultra-fast FTTx

deployment with the existing in-building and in-house telephone wire installation.

An Innovative Last Mile Solution Integrated with FTTx and VDSL2

The VC-231GF features one 1000BASE-X SFP slot for remote optical ber Ethernet

connection and one RJ11 port with the VDSL2 technology to provide an excellent

bandwidth of up to a total duplex data rate of 300Mbps and can extend a maximum

distance of up to 1.4km (4,593ft) over existing telephone wire to the in-house

VDSL2 router or bridge, which overcomes in-house ber installation problems.

The VC-231GF realizes ISPs (internet service providers) and SIs (system

integrators) to deploy Gigabit Ethernet optical fiber cables in the front of the

building or subscriber’s house and provide high-speed triple play services over

existing telephone wire. They can simply upgrade their current networks without

any difculty. Besides, its compact-sized metal housing makes the installation in a

telecom box convenient.

Fiber-Optic Link Capability Enables Extension of FTTx Deployment

With the built-in 1000BASE-X SFP (small form-factor pluggable) fiber interface, the

VC-231GF supports different optic types for network extension and the distance can

be up to 120 km through the fiber connection. Thus, building a network solution of

FTTH (Fiber to the Home), FTTC (Fiber to the Curb) for ISPs or FTTB (Fiber to the

Building) becomes so easy when long-distance deployment is employed.

Physical Ports

• One 1000BASE-X SFP interface

• 1 RJ11 connector for xDSL port with VDSL2 connection

VDSL2 Features

• VDSL2 stand-alone transceiver for simple bridge modem

application

• Cost-effective bridge function to connect two Ethernet LANs

• Up to 150/150Mbps bandwidth (in G.INP, Sym, 8dB mode)

• Voice and data communication can be shared simultaneously

based on the existing telephone wire with distance up to 1.4km

• ITU-T G.993.2 VDSL2 standard

• ITU-T G.993.5 G.Vectoring and G.INP

• DMT-based coding technology

• CO/CPE mode selectable via DIP switch

• Selectable target band plan (symmetric and asymmetric) and

SNR margin

• Supports IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tag transparency

Hardware and Installation

• Compact size, wall-mountable design; ideal solution for space-

limited locations

• Advantage of minimum installation time (Simply by Plug and

Play)

• Metal case, good for heat sinking

• Supports extensive LED indicators for network diagnosis

• Additional POST splitter to share voice and data

• Supports 6KV DC Ethernet ESD protection

VC-231GF VDSL2 Delivering High-demanding Service Connectivity for ISP/Triple Play Devices The VC-231G provides an excellent bandwidth demand for the triple play devices for home entertainment and communication. Via the latest VDSL2 (Veryhigh-data-rate Digital Subscriber Line 2) technology, the VC-231GF offers selectable asymmetric/symmetric data rate capability. It works well with a pervasive telephone line network with a symmetric data rate of up to 150/150Mbps (G.

VC-231GF Applications Distance Extension with High Performance FTTx Network Communications A set of the VC-231GF and VC-231G (VDSL2 Converter) or VDR-301N (VDSL2 Router) could be used to link fiber network and home network that are located in a different place. Through the normal telephone line, it could be set up a 150/150Mbps (G.INP, Sym, 8dB) symmetric backbone, but one VC231GF must be Master (CO mode) and the remote VDSL2 converter or VDSL2 Router is Slave (CPE mode).
