C AUTION

Pan Dacom Direkt GmbH strongly recommends the use of proper electrostatic discharge

(ESD) precautions when handling this equipment.

1. Installation

1.1. Unpack and Inspect the Equipment

The following components should be included:

1 SPEED-DSL 4.6 or SPEED-DSL 4.6G

1 power supply

1.2. Power Up the SPEED-DSL 4.6

Plug the power supply into the back of the SPEED-DSL 4.6 and connect it to the power source. Verify that the Power LED on the front of the SPEED-DSL 4.6 is illuminated.

1.3.1 Bandwidth

Switches #1-3: SPEED-DSL 4.6-P and SPEED-DSL 4.6G-P ONLY

Switches 1-3 on the SPEED-DSL 4.6-P work in tandem with one another to provide eight bandwidth options for the two SDSL ports; bandwidth for the two ports cannot be configured individually. Distance capabilities listed in the following table assume the use of

26 American Wire Gauge (AWG) cable. Connections made with cable of a lesser gauge

(e.g., 24 AWG) will link up at greater distances. Your SPEED-DSL 4.6 may not link up if the cable is in poor condition or if the cable distance is greater than a particular bandwidth will support; if link IS achieved under such conditions, traffic quality may be affected (e.g., packets may be dropped).

*Adaptive mode allows the SPEED-

DSL 4.6-P to train up to the best possible speed supported by the

SPEED-DSL 4.6-P, the remote modem to which it's connected, and the copper cable pair(s) connecting the two. The maximum reachable distance for a single line SPEED-DSL

4.6-P connection in Adaptive mode is

24,700 feet (at 144 kbps).

N OTE

Bandwidth cannot be configured on the SPEED-DSL 4.6-S; subscriber units determine bandwidth via communication with their partner SDSL provider unit.

1.3.2 Ethernet Duplex Mode

Switch 4: both provider and subscriber units

The Ethernet link can be configured at either Full Duplex or Half Duplex mode. Although both ends of the ETHERNET connection must have the same duplex mode configuration, it is not necessary for partner providers and subscribers to be configured the same; duplex mode does not apply to the SDSL link.

SWITCH 4 CONFIGURATION

1.3.2.1 Half Duplex Ethernet

Receive and transmit functions are mutually exclusive; data transmission occurs in only one direction at a time. Packet collisions are not unusual.

1.3.2.2 Full Duplex Ethernet

The Ethernet line can recieve and transmit simultaneously, effectively upping aggregate bandwidth from 10 mbps to 20 mbps and preventing packet collisions.

1.4. Connect the SDSL Line(s).

The primary feature of the SPEED-DSL 4.6 is loop bonding capability, though both the provider and subscriber units can also function with a single SDSL connection.

Using two SDSL lines for one network connection (loop bonding) will net twice the speed and data passing capability as a single SDSL connection. A second SDSL line can also be considered a backup for the first, and vice versa, should one of the lines become disabled.

Plug the SDSL cables into the SDSL RJ45 ports (SDSL 1 and SDSL 2) on the back of the

SPEED-DSL 4.6; the order of connection is not important. Verify both connections: the

SDSL 1 and SDSL 2 LEDs on the front of the SPEED-DSL 4.6 will pulse green to indicate the connections are established and operational.

Link up time between local and remote SDSL network extenders can vary from one to five minutes depending on the quality, gauge and distance of the copper cable(s). If cable distance(s) 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 (e.g., packets may be dropped).

Plug the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet Connection RJ45 port on the back of the SPEED-

DSL 4.6. Verify the connection: solid illumination of the Ethernet Connection Lnk LED on the front of the SPEED-DSL 4.6 indicates a link has been established, IF an SDSL connection has already been made. If an SDSL connection has NOT yet been made, the Ethernet link will remain disabled (as indicated by solid illumination of the Ethernet Rx, Tx and Lnk LEDs) until at least one of the two SDSL links has been established.

For most applications, the SPEED-DSL 4.6 connects to a PC using a straight-

4.6 in order to determine which type of cable is required.

If ferrite chokes are included with your Speed-DSL 4.6, bundle together all power and signal cables and wrap all the cables with all the ferrite chokes. Position the ferrite chokes as close as possible to the Speed-DSL 4.6.
