About the G1001-MR and G1001-CR
Introduction
The G1001-MR and G1001-CR are G.hn to Ethernet Bridge that completes the
G.hn link (copper or coax) with the G.hn Access Multiplexer (GAM) and converts
the G.hn interface to a standard Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45) interface. They also
include a Reverse Power Injector function to support the rugged IP67 outdoor
GAM-8-MRX / GAM-4-MRX and GAM-4-CRX reverse powered devices. They are
designed for indoor installation, usually inside the subscriber premises and
connects to a Residential Gateway (RG) or comparable devices.
About G.hn
The ITU-T G.9960 G.hn Wave-2 standard leverages the existing telephone wiring
(UTP, CAT-3 or CAT-5/5e) or RG-6/RG-59 coax cabling to deliver a Gigabit
Internet service to each subscriber without the cost, complexity and delays
associated with in-building fiber installation. G.hn is an Access technology for
Operators looking to simplify their access network and backend infrastructure with
an Ethernet-like technology that is highly scalable without some of the inherent
complexity of DSL-related technologies. With G.hn, Operators deliver advanced
services such as Gigabit High Speed Residential Internet and 4K IPTV without the
high capital and operational expenses associated with a fiber retrofit. Each G.hn
subscriber port supports up to 1.7 Gbps of dynamically allocated bandwidth for
near symmetrical Gigabit services over the existing telephone wire or coaxial
cable.
Note: Read Chapter entitled “Safety and Warnings”before proceeding.

G1001-MR (MIMO/SISO) Copper Endpoint
The G1001-MR device offers a single (1) Gigabit Ethernet Port and embeds the
Reverse Power PSE circuitry.
Figure 1: G1001-MR Gigabit Ethernet Port and Status LEDs
G1001-MR
The G1001-MR G.hn Bridge to Gigabit Ethernet supports G.hn operation over a
single copper pair (Single Input Single Output –SISO) or over two (2) copper pairs
(Multiple Input Multiple Output –MIMO) over a single RJ-45 port. The G1001-MR
comes with one (1) Gigabit Ethernet port (RJ-45) for the connection to the
Residential Gateway (RG).
The front plate of the G1001-MR includes the 12Vdc power jack (on the left hand
side) and the G.hn port (RJ-45).
Figure 2: G1001-MR port definition
Holding the RST button for less than ten (10) seconds resets the G1001-MR while
holding it for more than ten (10) seconds will return the device to its factory default
settings.

G1001-CR (COAX) Endpoint
The G1001-CR (coax) G.hn Bridge to Gigabit Ethernet comes with one (1) Gigabit
Ethernet port to connect the Residential Gateway (RG) and embeds the Reverse
Power PSE circuitry.
Figure 3: G1001-CR Gigabit Ethernet Port and Status LEDs
The G1001-CR comes with a built-in passive COAX splitter/combiner; the second
COAX port is available to handle other COAX services such as Cable TV or
Satellite (such as DIRECTV, DISH, or others). Note: G.hn uses up to 200 MHz of
spectrum in the range of 5-240 MHz, which leaves room for services using higher
frequencies.

Holding the RST button for less than ten (10) seconds resets the G1001-CR while
holding it for more than ten (10) seconds will return the device to its factory default
settings.

Physical Mounting of the G1001 Devices
You can optionally install (mount) the G1001 enclosure on a wall or flat surface
as follows:
1. Select a proper mounting location where you can securely install mounting
screws (not supplied).
2. Use the G1001 enclosure as a guide to determine where you need to install
the two (2) mounting screws.
3. Install the lower screw into the wall but do not tighten completely. Use a wall
plug if inserting the screws into a dry wall. Leave enough room to insert the
G1001 enclosure (see step 4).
4. Insert the G1001 slot (as per the figure 5 below) and slightly tighten the lower
screw to hold the G1001 in place while you install the top screw.
5. Tighten both screws to hold the G1001 securely in place but do not apply too
much torque to avoid damaging the screws or the wall mounting.
Figure 7: Mounting holes to install G1001 device on a flat surface
Use two (2) screws #10 (5mm) to install the G1001
enclosure on a flat surface. If mounting on a dry
wall, use adequate wall plugs (not supplied)
