High Performance VDSL2 Data Rate over Existing Phone Lines
PLANET VC-820M is an 8-Port VDSL2 Managed CO (Central Office) Switch with 2 Gigabit TP/SFP combo interfaces.
The VDSL2 CO Switch is perfectly designed for the networking applications of communities, network service providers, SIs,
IP surveillance providers, etc. It is based on two core networking technologies, Ethernet and VDSL2 (Very-high-data-rate
Digital Subscriber Line 2). Worked with PLANET VC-23x series of VDSL2 CPE (Customer Premises Equipment), the
VC-820M offers the absolutely fastest data transmission speeds over the existing copper telephone lines providing an ideal
solution to the last-mile connectivity.
Each VDSL2 interface of the VC-820M provides two copper phone ports, one for VDSL2 connection and the other one for
POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) connection. To share the existing phone line with POTS, the VC-820M has a built-in
POTS splitter that helps the voice over telephone and network data to transmit over the same wire without being
interrupted.
Delivering Highly-demanding Connectivity for ISPs/Triple Play Devices

integration of home services and provides a significant transmission speed faster than that of the current cable modem and
ADSL technology. The VC-820M applies the EoVDSL (Ethernet over VDSL) to providing up to 100Mbps download
capability and makes the following multi-media services more efficient on the local network:
 IPTV/HDTV
