Network module with Ethernet and telephone line ports

PLANET

PLANET VC-231G VDSL2 Converter/Bridge 30a profile G.vectoring switch module

SKU CH-CRE9-TV2HN MPN VC-231G

Converts Gigabit Ethernet to VDSL2 over phone lines with G.vectoring, reaching 200 Mbps downstream and 160 Mbps upstream at 300 m

  • Symmetric 200/160 Mbps over telephone lines
  • G.vectoring and G.INP reduce line interference
  • Single RJ11 port carries voice and data
  • Gigabit Ethernet port for local network link
  • CO or CPE mode set by DIP switch

Gigabit Ethernet over VDSL2 Converter

The PLANET VC-231G bridges a 10/100/1000BASE-TX LAN port to a VDSL2 line using ITU-T G.993.5 G.vectoring and G.INP. It targets installers who need to extend Ethernet over existing copper telephone wiring without new cabling. The module fits into a compatible PLANET chassis and provides a single RJ11 connector for the VDSL link.

200/160 Mbps symmetric bandwidth at 300 m

At short range the converter delivers up to 200 Mbps downstream and 160 Mbps upstream with an 8 dB SNR margin. Performance drops to 20 Mbps downstream and 12 Mbps upstream at 1.4 km. DMT-based coding and selectable target band plan with SNR margin let the installer tune the link for line conditions. CO/CPE mode is chosen by a DIP switch.

Built-in POST splitter and flow control

A POST splitter is integrated so voice and data share the same pair without an external filter. The Ethernet port supports IEEE 802.3x full-duplex pause frames and half-duplex back-pressure flow control. No separate power adapter or management software is included; the module draws power from the host chassis.

Questions about this item

Will the 10/100/1000BASE-TX LAN port link at gigabit speed with my older 100BASE-TX switch?

Yes, the LAN port follows IEEE 802.3, 802.3u and 802.3x so it auto-negotiates down to 100 Mbps full-duplex with legacy 100BASE-TX equipment.

Which LED pattern confirms the VDSL2 link has trained at the 30a profile with G.vectoring active?

The VDSL LED shows steady green when the line synchronises using ITU-T G.993.5 vectoring and the selected 30a band plan.

Does the package include the RJ11 telephone cable and a power adapter, or must I source them separately?

The converter ships with an external power adapter; an RJ11 cable for the VDSL port is not included and must be purchased separately.
