Chapter 1: Product Overview
TP-LINK® TD-8811 External ADSL ROUTER is the latest product designed and
manufactured by TP-LINK Technologies Co., Ltd. With TP-LINK’s excellent circuit design
and high quality production, we guarantee the ADSLROUTER’s high performance, great
stability and easy to use.
TD-8811 uses integrated ADSL2+ transceiver and a 256-MHz MIPS32 CPU, the AFE
supports full-rate ADSL connectivity conforming to the ITU and ANSI specifications;
MIPS32 CPU with MMU and 16-KB I-cache/8-KB D-cache is integrated into the device.
In addition to the basic DMT physical layer functions, the ADSL PHY supports dual latency
ADSL framing (fast and interleaved) and the I.432 ATM Physical Layer.
The TD-8811 is a complete plug-and-play solution. With standard Ethernet interface, it
can be directly connected to any 10M/100M Ethernet devices, support Auto-MDIX.
The TD-8811 not only uses html (web mode through Ethernet port) to configure the
ROUTER but also uses external utility software，too. You can download it from our
website (http://www.tp-link.com).
