Preface
Congratulations on your purchase of the IES-1000 Integrated Ethernet Switch.
About the 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.
