DT Etherlink IV User Manual- 10 -3 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION3.1 General Information about S-Access Etherlink_IVThe S-Access Etherlink_IV SHDSL.bis Extended product family offers a broad range of products,which are based on the latest SHDSL.bis standards (ITU-T G.991.2 & ETS TS 101 524), while alsobeing fully interoperable with all our existing SHDSL equipment (Etherlink1 & Etherlink_II). The S-Access Etherlink_IV supports TC-PAM16/32 and the new TC-PAM4/8/64/128 line coding. Thesupport of these line codes ensures compatibility with existing SHDSL equipment that is alreadyinstalled, in order to protect customer investments, while at the same time providing an upgradepath to the newest DSL technologies.SHDSL.bis Extended allows symmetrical data and voice transmission at speeds up to 15.2Mbpsover a single pair of copper. In addition, the S-Access Etherlink_IV modem range also supports DSLchannel bonding for up to 4 copper pairs in order to achieve speeds to 60.8Mbps! S-AccessEtherlink_IV SHDSL.bis Extended modems can provide up to 4 complete E1 interfaces, whichsupport framed and unframed services (G.703/G.704). An integrated 2 or 4 port Ethernet layer 2managed switch with VLAN support (10/100BaseT) ensures connectivity to IP services. Beside ofE1 and Ethernet we have additional interfaces like Nx64 that can be configured to be a V.35, V.36,X.21 or V.28 interface (cable selected). Also RS-232 and RS-485 (asynchrounous) are available.This makes S-Access Etherlink_IV SHDSL.bis Extended modems a perfect solution for a wide rangeof applications in which TDM and IP services need to be transmitted over copper wires.Like all S-Access Etherlink products, the Etherlink_IV SHDSL.bis Extended modems family is basedon industrial components and is manufactured according to highest quality standards providingadditional value due to the extended temperature range and higher reliability.The S-Access Etherlink_IV SHDSL.bis Extended product family consists ofLTU devices (Line Termination Units)Usually Central Office Equipment.LTU’s can be powered from local DC power supply.
