Getting to Know the IES-1000
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 up to 16 lines of G.SHDSL or ADSL
traffic to an Ethernet network using existing phone line wiring before it is forwarded to the Internet. It can even
combine up to 8 G.SHDSL and 8 ADSL lines. 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. The “G.” in “SHDSL” is defined by
the ITU-T G.991.2.
ADSL is an acronym for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line.
1.1 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 telephone lines.
10/100 Mbps Auto-sensing Ethernet Port
This 10/100 Mbps auto-sensing 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.
