The DCE/2178HSEE-2PK is a two pack kit of the 2178HSEE High Speed Ethernet Extender shown above with power supplies included.
The pair, back to back, will inexpensively extend Ethernet with just one pair of copper wire to distances way beyond the 328 ft limit of Ethernet.
These low cost kits use one 10/100Mbps RJ-45 port for Ethernet and an RJ-11 connector for the line between the units.
They also come with a splitter for telephone (POTS) service, so voice and data communication can be shared simultaneously based on the existing telephone wire. A Din Rail Mount kit is also available.
100/100Mbps Downstream / upstream, high Performance Ethernet over VDSL Solution
The Data Connect 2178HSEE is an Ethernet-over-VDSL2 Converter with high performance. It is designed based on two core networking technology, Ethernet and VDSL2 (Very-high-data-rate Digital Subscriber Line 2). The VDSL2 technology offers absolutely fastest data transmission speed over existing copper telephone lines without the need of rewiring. The 2178HSEE supports ultra-high performance to the pervasive telephone line network with up to 100/100Mbps symmetric data rate within 300m and 50/2Mbps for 1.4km long range connections.
Implement with Existing Telephone Copper Wires
The 2178HSEE is also a Long Reach Ethernet (LRE) converter providing one RJ-45 Ethernet port and one RJ-11 phone jack that is for VDSL2 connection. By using the additional Splitter from package of 2178HSEE, the splitter can provide POTS splitter to share the existing phone line with POTS; therefore it is no need of replacing the existing copper wiring. Just plug the 2178HSEE with additional splitter into the existing RJ-11 telephone jack and a high-performance VDSL2 network can be connected. The 2178HSEE is ideal to be used as an Ethernet extender to an existing Ethernet network.
Delivers High-Demand Service Connectivity for ISP / Triple Play Devices
The 2178HSEE provides excellent bandwidth to satisfy the triple play devices for home entertainment and communication. With the capability of 100/100Mbps symmetric data transmission, the 2178HSEE enables many Multi-Media services to work on local Internet, such as VOD (Video on Demand), Voice over IP, Video phone, IPTV, Internet caching server, distance education, and so on.
Easy & Flexible Installation
The Ethernet-over-VDSL2 Converter is plug-and-play design and fully compatible with all kinds of network protocols. Moreover, the operating status of each individual port and the whole system can be watched via the rich diagnostic LEDs on the front panel. The 2178HSEE offers two modes, CPE and CO, for application: CPE mode is used at client side and CO mode is at central side. The CPE or CO mode can be adjusted by using a built-in DIP switch. For point-to-point connection, a CPE mode 2178HSEE and a CO mode 2178HSEE must be setup as one pair of converters to perform the connection.
Provides Superior Upstream and Downstream Transmission Performance
The 2178HSEE also defines symmetric band plan for the transmission of upstream and downstream signals, the band plan performs higher transmission quality in short range for central side (CO) in symmetric mode. In all, when the 2178HSEE is in profile 17a operation mode, it provides long distance transmit with Ultra-high performance to the pervasive telephone line network, and when the 2178HSEE is in 30a operation mode, it gives short distance transmits with upstream and downstream transmission giving wire speed performance.
