6 SNE2-A2-ZN12-30
Connecting the SHDSL Lines
The primary feature of the SNE2040 is loop bonding capability among all four ports. However,
both the provider and subscriber units can function with a single G.SHDSL connection.
Link up time between local and remote SHDSL network extenders can vary from one to five
minutes depending on the quality, gauge and distance of the copper cables. If cable distance is
greater than a particular bandwidth will support, the units may not link up or, if they do achieve
link, traffic quality may be affected.
Loop Bonded Connection
Using two, three or four G.SHDSL lines for one network connection (loop bonding) will net two,
three or four times the speed and data passing capability as a single G.SHDSL connection.
Multiple G.SHDSL lines used for one connection provide backup for each other should one or
more of the lines become disabled.
NOTE: An SNE2040G must be connected with equipment that is also loop bonding capable in
order to utilize the loop bonding feature; see the document Product to Product SDSL Loop
Bonding Capability.
Procedure
To establish a loop bonding connection:
1 Plug your G.SHDSL cables into the G.SHDSL RJ45 ports (any combination of G.SHDSL 1,
2, 3 and 4) on the rear of the SNE2040G. The order of connection is not important.
2 Verify all connections: the G.SHDSL Link (Lnk) LED for each connected port will pulse
green to indicate the connection is established and operational.
Single Line Connection
A single line connection can be established between an SNE2040G-S and any of Zhone’s
G.SHDSL provider network extenders. Likewise, a single line connection can also be established
between an SNE2040G-P and any of Zhone's G.SHDSL subscriber network extenders.
Procedure
To establish a single line connection:
1 Plug your G.SHDSL cable into one of the four G.SHDSL RJ45 ports on the back of the
SNE2040G. Any of the four ports may be used.
2 Verify your connection: the G.SHDSL LED corresponding to the connected port (G.SHDSL
1–4) will flash green to indicate the connection is established and operational.
