Delivering Gigabit to the Home

Positron G1001-MR and G1001-CR G.hn to Ethernet Managed End Point with support for Reverse Power Feed

``Fiber to the Home'' is far from the only and most efficient technology to deliver Gigabit Internet access to subscribers. Retrofitting an existing (brownfield) Multi-Dwelling Unit (MDU) with fiber is complex and expensive. The Positron G.hn Aggregation Multiplexer (GAM) family delivers near symmetrical Gigabit Internet access to subscribers in MDUs over the existing telephone or coaxial infrastructure at a fraction of the cost of alternatives.

The G1001-MR and G1001-CR G.hn to Ethernet Managed Demarcation Point devices power the Positron rugged IP67 (outdoor and extended temperature) GAM family with support for the ETSI Reverse Power Feed (RPF). Support for RPF facilitates the installation of the GAM outside of the MDU or MTU and in areas where it is not simple or cost effective to install a local power source. The GAM-8-MRX and GAM-4-MRX respectively have eight (8) and four (4) MIMO ports and can operate when powered from G1001-MR devices in SISO or MIMO mode. The GAM-4-CXR has four (4) COAX ports and can operate when powered from G1001-CR devices. Each G1001-MR or G1001-CR powers a single G.hn port of the outdoor GAM devices.

About the G1001 Managed Demarcation Point with RPF Support

When operating in a Reverse Power Feed mode, the outdoor GAM devices will always make sure that each G.hn End-Point devices it serves evenly contribute to provide power to the GAM via RPF. This means that the outdoor GAM will reject G.hn End-Point devices that do not provide their share of the power required by the GAM.

The G1001 devices control how a Residential Gateway (or User CPE) connects to the G.hn Access Network under the control of the Positron GAM. In this role, they make sure the information transmitted over the G.hn links is protected with strong AES-128 encryption. When used in Point-to-Multipoint mode (coaxial wiring), the G1001-CR operates under control of the GAM to isolate the traffic from each subscriber that shares the same coax splitter.

NOTE: When there are multiple G1001-CR devices on the same GAM Coax port, each of the G1001-CR will share the power load evenly amongst them.

About the Rugged Outdoor Positron GAM Devices

The Positron G.hn Access Multiplexer (GAM) family now includes rugged versions for deployment in harsh environments (outdoor) where there is no local power source. These GAM devices obtain their power from the G1001-MR over the copper wiring or G1001-CR over the COAX cabling. The outdoor GAM devices offer the same feature and management capabilities as their indoor counterpart. They optimize coverage of Gigabit Internet services in an MDU and operate over twisted-pair wiring in Point-to-Point mode while operation over a coax infrastructure is in Point-to-multipoint mode where each COAX port can serve up to sixteen (16) G1001-CR devices.
