Introduction to your Router

Thank you for purchasing BiPAC 9800(N) Router. Your new router is a point-to-point fiber gateway
that allows you to experience very super fast broadband point-to-point connectivity for FTTH
applications.
The BiPAC 9800(N) is a point-to-point (P2P) Fiber Gateway – featuring a 4-port Gigabit Ethernet
Switch, Firewall and Wi-Fi 802.11n access point. The device can be used for fiber-to-the-home
(FTTH) applications and offers four different optical connectors of Fiber WAN interface transceiver:
100/1000BASE-BX (single-mode single fiber transceiver), 100/1000BASE-LX (single-mode dual
fiber), 100BASE-FX (multi-mode dual fiber), and 100/1000BASE Small Form Factor Pluggable
(SFP).
Moreover, the BiPAC 9800(N) supports remote management on end-user devices, which is available
upon request for Telcos/ISPs projects to tightly manage FTTH service delivery. The router is also
equipped with a built-in 4-port Gigabit Switch, enabling amazingly fast LAN transmissions for
bandwidth-consuming applications such as video streaming and file sharing. The integrated 802.11n
Wireless Access Point ensures the 9800N offers faster wireless speeds (up to 300Mbps) while three
built-in antennae maximize wireless signals.
The BiPAC 9800(N) automatically adopts the optimal connection to deliver smooth and constant
signal reception even if obstacles are present. Users can easily enjoy high bandwidth applications
such as High Definition IPTV services without changing their home network. A robust Firewall is also
built in to provide protection against intrusion attacks while the Quality of Service feature prioritizes
queues and traffic or manages bandwidth for applications such as music downloads and online
gaming.
802.11n Wireless AP with WPA Support (BiPAC 9800N Only)
With integrated 802.11n Wireless Access Point in the router, the device offers a quick and easy
access among wired network, wireless network and broadband connection (VDSL) with single
device simplicity, and as a result, mobility to the users. In addition to 300 Mbps 802.11n data
rate, it also interoperates backward with existing 802.11g and 802.11b equipment. The Wireless
Protected Access (WPA) and Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP) supported features enhance the
security level of data protection and access control via Wireless LAN.
Fast Ethernet Switch
A 4-port 10/100/1000Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built in with automatic switching between MDI
and MDI-X for 10Base-T, 100Base-TX and 1000Base-TX ports. An Ethernet straight or crossover
cable can be used directly for auto detection.
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)
This device provides an embedded PPPoE client function to establish a connection. You get
greater access speed without changing the operation concept, while sharing the same ISP account
and paying for one access account. No PPPoE client software is required for the local computer.
Automatic Reconnect and Disconnect Timeout (Idle Timer) functions are also provided.
