Integrated ethernet switch

Table of Contents

This chapter describes the key features, benefits and applications of your IES-1000.

The IES-1000 is an integrated Ethernet switch that allows you to multiplex traffic from up to 16 G.SHDSL or

ADSL subscribers (or eight of each) to an Ethernet network using existing phone line wiring before it is

forwarded to the Internet. When deployed together with ZyXEL's DSL modems and WAN routers, the

combination forms an integrated solution for providing broadband services to multiple tenant units such as

apartments, hotels, offices and campus buildings.

G.SHDSL is an acronym for Single-pair High-speed Digital Subscriber Line. ITU-T G.991.2 defines the "G." in

"G.SHDSL".

ADSL is an acronym for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line.

Features

Two-Slot Chassis

The IES-1000 has two slots that accept multiplexer network modules. The chassis design gives you the flexibility

to initially install a single module and then add another as demand increases.

Multiplexer Network Modules

Up to two hot-swappable multiplexing network modules may be installed in each IES-1000 chassis.

The SAM1008 (G.SHDSL Access Module) is an 8-port G.SHDSL multiplexer network module that aggregates

traffic from eight lines to an Ethernet port.

The AAM1008 (ADSL Access Module) is an 8-port ADSL multiplexer network module that aggregates traffic

from eight lines to an Ethernet port and has integrated splitters to allow voice and ADSL to be carried over the

same phone line wiring.

10/100 Mbps Auto-negotiating Ethernet Port

This 10/100 Mbps auto-negotiating Ethernet port connects the IES-1000 to an Ethernet network. With Ethernet as

the backbone, you can create a network that provides G.SHDSL and or ADSL service to hundreds of subscribers.
