High Performance Gigabit Ethernet over Phone Wire Solution

PLANETVC-234G,anew-generationandhigh-performanceGigabitEthernet-

over-VDSL2Converter,workswellwithapervasivetelephonelinenetworkwitha

symmetric(downstream/upstream)datarateofupto150/150Mbps (G.INP, Sym,

8dB)overadistanceof300mand20/12Mbpsoveralongdistanceof1.4km.It is

basedonthetwo-corenetworkingtechnology,Gigabit EthernetandVDSL2(Very-

high-data-rateDigitalSubscriberLine2).TheVDSL2technologyoffersabsolutely

the fastestdata transmissionspeedover theexistingcopper telephone lines
