ZyXEL VES-1124 24-port VDSL Switch

ZyXEL’s VES-1124 is a 24-port VDSL switch based on Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) and the latest Ethernet technologies. The VES-1124 aggregates traffic from ZyXEL’s Prestige 841-25 QAM-based VDSL CPE, and multiplexes data traffic into two 10/100Base-Tx uplinks that connect to any third-party Ethernet switch or WAN router. The built-in POTS/ISDN splitter splits and sends the voice traffic to the PSTN. The VES-1124 supports up to 15Mbps for both downstream and upstream, extending Ethernet service up to distances of 1.5km. The IEEE 802 standard-based firmware provides a rich set of features and ensures interoperability with equipment from other vendors. In addition, the firmware includes many advanced features such as bandwidth management, 802.1X, IGMP snooping, broadcast storm control, and MAC address filtering, which enhance service differentiation, network security and bandwidth utilization. With a broad array of fully integrated, advanced technologies, the VES-1124 together with the Prestige 841-25 enable service providers and system administrators to affordably build up full service networks and to make all kinds of media rich applications possible.
