Compliant with IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab, 802.3x and 802.1p standards, it offers Gigabit Ethernet conversion in a compact black enclosure (97×70×26 mm, 184 g). Powered by DC 5V/2A, it is suitable for extending or adapting copper network links in office and industrial networks.

## Long description

PLANET VC-231G is a Gigabit Ethernet-over-VDSL2 media converter that enables high-speed data transmission over existing copper telephone lines and standard Ethernet cabling. The converter provides one RJ45 10/100/1000Base-T(X) port and one RJ11 VDSL2 phone jack in a compact black enclosure (97 × 70 × 26 mm, 184 g) and is powered by DC 5V/2A. It is compliant with IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab, 802.3x and 802.1p standards and supports symmetric and asymmetric VDSL2 profiles to deliver extended Ethernet links without rewiring.
Advantages
The VC-231G combines Gigabit Ethernet conversion and VDSL2 technology to deliver high throughput over existing copper wiring, reducing the need for new cabling. Integrated support for vectoring (G.993.5) improves line performance by mitigating crosstalk, while the device’s compact form factor and simple power requirement (DC 5V) enable flexible placement. Diagnostic LEDs and a DIP switch for selecting CPE or CO mode simplify installation and status monitoring. The converter supports high-demand services with symmetric and asymmetric data rates suitable for IPTV, VoIP and other multimedia applications.
Suitable for
Extending Ethernet to remote rooms or floors using existing telephone copper lines
Delivering broadband services (IPTV, VoIP, VoD) in residential or small-business environments
Converting between 10/100/1000Base-T(X) Ethernet and VDSL2 connections for last-mile access
Integrating with vectoring-enabled DSLAMs to improve link performance over copper pairs
Key specifications
Ethernet port: 1 × RJ45 10/100/1000Base-T(X), auto-negotiation
VDSL2 port: 1 × RJ11 for VDSL2 connection
VDSL2 performance: up to 200/160 Mbps symmetric (G.INP, Sym, 8 dB) at 300 m; up to 20/12 Mbps at 1.4 km; asymmetric profiles up to 220/120 Mbps
Vectoring support: ITU-T G.993.5 compatible
Standards compliance: IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab, 802.3x, 802.1p
Power: DC 5V/2A
Physical dimensions: 97 × 70 × 26 mm; weight: 184 g
Installation modes: CPE and CO selectable via DIP switch
How to use
Connect the network switch or router to the VC-231G RJ45 Ethernet port using a Cat5e/6 cable, and connect the RJ11 VDSL2 port to the existing telephone jack or the paired VC-231G at the remote end. Use the included splitter if you need to share the copper line with POTS services. Select CPE mode on the unit at the customer side and CO mode on the central side using the built-in DIP switch for a point-to-point link. Power the unit with the specified DC 5V adapter and monitor the front-panel LEDs to verify link, speed and VDSL status during startup and operation.
Usage recommendations
Place the VC-231G in a ventilated location away from strong electromagnetic interference. For optimal VDSL2 performance, use the shortest available copper pair and enable vectoring on the paired DSLAM when possible. When deploying for multimedia or triple-play services, verify asymmetric or symmetric profile selection according to upstream/downstream bandwidth requirements and confirm wiring condition if performance is below expected levels.
