2.2 DESCRIPTION
The Patton Electronics VLINK/CO and VLINK/CP VDSL modems provide
high-speed LAN connections between peered Ethernet LANs, remote
PCs, or any other network enabled 10/100Base-T device.
Operating in pairs, a VLINK/CO (central office) located at one end of the
LAN extension and a VLINK/CP (customer premise) at the other end,
these units can automatically forward LAN broadcasts, multicasts, and
frames across a 2-wire voice-grade twisted-pair link. The data is passed
transparently (unmodified) through the VLINK modems. The VLINK
modems automatically add and delete MAC addresses, only passing
packets across the VDSL link that are meant for the remote peered LAN.
Figure 1.
Typical application
The VLINK/CO modem and VLINK/CP modem work together to create a
transparent extension between two peered Ethernet LANs. POTS/ISDN
calls can be made over a VDSL link without interfering with the data.
Figure 1 shows a typical point-to-point application.
