AT-MC605
Subscriber/provider unit
Extended Ethernet Operation
Used as a pair, the AT-MC605 provides up to
100Mbps / 60Mbps of data transfer, while
supporting POTS service over phone-grade,
twisted-pair, wiring (CAT1, 2, 3) at distances up
to 3km or 10,000 feet.These units are the ideal
solution for providing data on 'last-mile' twisted-
pair circuits or existing in-building wiring.
Standard Ethernet operation is preserved end-
to-end, retaining VLAN tags, and Ethernet MAC
information across the link, while higher layer
protocols are passed transparently. 10/100Mbps
Ethernet operation is supported simultaneously
with POTS, ISDN or PBX signaling, without
disruption.
MTU and MDU Applications
Multi-Tenant Units (MTU) such as offices and
campuses, and Multiple Dwelling Units (MDU)
such as hotels and apartments are an ideal
environment for the AT-MC605 network
extenders, where private phone-grade wiring
can be used to provide broadband access to
Internet services including video streaming,
www, gaming and e-mail.There is no need to
re-wire premises with expensive CAT5 or fiber
to provide broadband Ethernet services.
Standalone and Rack-mount
The AT-MC605 provider unit is available as a
compact standalone unit for installation at the
central office, or alternatively, it can be rack-
mounted in the standard AT-MCR12 chassis
from Allied Telesis, capable of housing up to
twelve units in one compact chassis with a
redundant power supply, simplifying wiring and
minimizing space requirements.
Plug and PlayOperation
Simply connect to the RJ-45 Ethernet port and
the unit will automaticallyauto-sense and
configure for 10T or 10/100TX, as well as full or
half-duplex Ethernet operation. An integral
POTS splitter means that existing phone
services are not affected - no reconfiguration is
required.
