Chapter 2. Installing the Modem 2.1 Hardware Installation This chapter describes how to install the modem, and establish the network connections. The XL-GFC142SR may be installed on any level surface (e.g. a table or shelf). However, please take note of the following minimum site requirements before you begin.
Page 6 2.3 General Rules Before making any connections to the modem, please note the following rules:  Ethernet Port interface : RJ-45 All network connections to the modem Ethernet port must be made using Category 5e UTP/STP or above for 1000 Mbps, Category 5 UTP or above for 100Mbps Category 3, 4 UTP or above for 10Mbps. No more than 100 meters of cabling may be use between the MUX or HUB and an end node.
Page 7 2.4 Connecting the RJ-11 / RJ-45 Ports There are two type line: 1 Terminal Block & 1 RJ-11 connector. It is used to connect with DPU Master side over a single pair phone wire to CPE Slave side (point to point application). (Figure 2.1) ...
Page 8 2.5 Point to Point application First a quick overview on a complete setup of LAN extender Master/Slave LAN extender. XL-GFC142 is a LAN extender leverages the extraordinary bandwidth promise of G.fast technology (max. 1Gbps) (Figure 2.2)
Page 9  2.5.1 Connect the XL-GFC142M (DPU Master) and the XL-GFC142SR (CPE Slave) to the Line The objective for LAN extender is to pass high speed data over a twisted pair cable. In the setup, connect DPU Master to CPE Slave through phone wire (24~26 AWG) or line simulator or any other hardware representation of a cable network, with or without noise injection and crosstalk simulations.
