VC-2402 / VC-2402-48

24-Port VDSL2 IP DSLAM

 
 
PLANET VC-2402 is a rack-mountable pizza-box IP DSLAM supporting two Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) trunk interfaces and 24 VDSL2 ports (ADSL 2+ compatible) at line side. It provides a non-blocking solution for the last mile of broadband access to facilitate digital family.

As the demand for home broadband connections steadily increases, cable modems and ADSL now are not fast enough to support the integration of home services. VDSL / VDSL2 are viewed as the next step media in providing a complete home-communication / entertainment solution. The PLANET VC-2402 takes advantage of VDSL2 technology with core IP switching functionality to perform competitive broadband service for the last mile. This allows operators to easily offer services such as IPTV, VoIP, HDTV, VOD, videoconferencing, Internet access and advanced voice services at the same copper line. 

Besides, due to the performance of VDSL2 is limited by loop length in which performance degrades dramatically when loop length longer than 300 meters, the VC-2402 providing ADSL 2/2+ operation modes in the same copper line with VDSL2 will be beneficial to industry to enhance coverage of a VDSL2 DSLAM. The VC-2402 is suitable for small scale application and can be easily deployed in remote locations such as remote terminal, business parks, street cabinets and so on to extend the service reach distance.

• High Speed VDSL2 Technology
 The VC-2402 supports VDSL2 service via POTS / ISDN user interface.

• Built-in POTS / ISDN Splitters
 Streamline installation and increase cost-effectiveness.

• System Overheating Protection
 This system includes three functions - FAN alarm indicating if FAN malfunction, temperature monitoring and system overheating trap functionality, and automatic power cutoff when system overheating.

• Expanded Revenue Opportunities
 ADSL 2+ backward compatibility enables service providers to migrate to VDSL2 service while continue providing existing customers with option of ADSL 2+ service.

• High Reliability and Easy Maintenance
 The VC-2402 is equipped with fan and air filter unit to cool the system operation. Also, it is equipped with low power requirements plus full diagnostic and alarm reporting capability. The powerful SNMP, CLI, and Web GUI management features provided is easy to use. It offers remote login and software download that helps service providers minimize daily operational costs.

• Compact Design for Limited Space
 The VC-2402 VDSL2 mini-DSLAM occupies only 1U of standard telecom rack space for 24 lines. It will easily be fitted in existing Remote Terminals. With optional temperature–hardened design, the VC-2402 VDSL2 mini-DSLAM is a good fit for outdoor plant cabinet, indoor rack, or wall-mounting enclosures.
