may cause radio interference, in which case the user may be required
to take adequate measures.
Energy Saving Note of the Device
This power required device does not support Standby mode
operation.
For energy saving, please remove the DC-plug or push the hardware
Power Switch to OFF position to disconnect the device from the
power circuit.
Without removing the DC-plug or switch off the device, the device
will still consume power from the power source. In the view of
Saving the Energy and reduce the unnecessary power consuming, it
is strongly suggested to power off or to remove the DC-plug for the
device if this device is not intended to be active.
WEEE Warning
To avoid the potential effects on the environment and
human health as a result of the presence of hazardous
substances in electrical and electronic equipment, end
users of electrical and electronic equipment should
understand the meaning of the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol. Do
not dispose of WEEE as unsorted municipal waste and have to collect
such WEEE separately.

1.2 Ethernet over VDSL2 Bridge Description
PLANET's state-of-the-art Ethernet-over-VDSL2 products are
based on two core networking technologies: Ethernet and
VDSL2 (Very-high-data-rate Digital Subscriber Line 2). This
technology offers the absolute fastest possible data transmission
speeds over existing copper telephone lines or coaxial cables
without the need for rewiring.
The VC-201A / VC-202A / VC-204 Ethernet Over VDSL2
Converter has a switching architecture with RJ-45 10/100Mbps
Ethernet port and one asymmetric or symmetric Ethernet over
VDSL port (Asymmetric means upstream and downstream
rate are not the same and Symmetric means upstream and
downstream rate are similar) – the VDSL port can be RJ-11
connector (VC-201A / VC-204) or BNC Connector (VC-202A). The
VC-201A / VC-202A / VC-204 can be set to Central Ofce (CO)
or Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) mode via a DIP switch.
When VC-20X-CO (VC-201A / VC-204 is connected with other
VC-20X-CPE (VC-201A / VC-204) device, the performance will
6
up to 100/55Mbps for asymmetric data rate within 200m and up
to 25/4Mbps for asymmetric data rate at 1.6km. The VC-202A
(BNC) performance is up to 100/65Mbps for asymmetric data
rate within 200m and up to 25/5Mbps for asymmetric data rate
at 3.0km. This capability is ideal for use as an Ethernet extender
for your existing Ethernet network.
PLANET VDSL2 Converter provides a much cheaper replacement
and smooth migration for existing Long Reach Ethernet (LRE)
networks.
The cable specications of the connection are listed as following:
10Base-T, Category 3, 4 or 5 UTPl
100Base-TX, Category 5, 5e or 6 UTPl
Ethernet over VDSL2, Twisted-pair telephone wiresl
Ethernet over VDSL2, Coaxial cablel
The two drawings pictures are typical application for the Ethernet
over VDSL2 Converter.
Note
Slave device (CPE) must connect to Master device
(CO) through the telephone wire or coaxial cable.
It is not allow connecting like Master to Master or
Slave to Slave. To define the VC-201A / VC-202A /
VC-204 to CO or CPE, please refer to section 2.2.1
for more detail.
