The Patton Model 3324A VDSL2 Media Access Concentrator delivers cost effective, Triple Play services to small to medium enterprises, education facilities, medical facilities, and various MxU environments such as hotels and apartment complexes. The Model 3324A dramatically improves the performance of already installed twisted pair infrastructures by offering symmetrical network connections at speeds of 100 Mbps while imultaneously providing POTS/ISDN to the users on the same twisted pair wire.
The VDSL2 Media Access Concentrator is a full function Layer 2 switch. The 3324A’s software suite includes: multicast, Layer 2 quality of service (QoS), Link Aggregation (LACP) dynamic trunking group, security, GVRP, IGMP for video on demand (VOD), and SNMP RMON management and web-based switch network management. The Model 3324A includes two RJ-45 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-TX Ethernet uplink ports, and two RJ-45/small-form-factor pluggable (SFP) auto-sensing Ethernet ports for trunking and cascading. For larger applications, up to four Model 3324A’s can be cascaded with other 3324A units to provide a scalable VDSL2 solution (96 ports). A unique feature in the 3324A is a built in POTS/ISDN splitter. This feature enables voice and data services to be combined on to the same 2-wire VDSL2 link.
The Model 3324A 24-Port VDSL2 Media Concentrator is the ideal solution for the delivery of high speed broadband and POTS/ISDN services.
MTU/MDU Application
Using Patton’s VDSL2 Media Access Concentrator, up to 24 fullservice links can be routed throughout campus and various MxU environments. The Model 3324A aggregates the IP services delivered from the ISP or Service Providers with the POTS delivered from the PSTN. The POTS and Ethernet signals are then aggregated and sent over an already existing 2-wire telephony grade connection.
The VDSL2 standalone unit is placed in each room to split the signal back into Ethernet (data) and POTS/ISDN (voice) for delivery to the end-user. Channel selectable symmetrical data rates up to 100 Mbps allow for a differentiation of services, and increased distance capabilities.
