Safety when working with electricity

General observations

• Clean the case with a soft slightly moist anti-static cloth

• Place the unit on a ﬂat surface and ensure free air circulation

• Avoid exposing the unit to direct sunlight and other heat sources

• Protect the unit from moisture, vapors, and corrosive liquids

• This device contains no user serviceable parts. The equipment shall be

returned to Patton Electronics for repairs, or repaired by qualiﬁed service

personnel.

• AC Powered Units: The external power adaptor shall be a listed Limited

Power Source. Ensure that the power cable used meets all applicable stan-

dards for the country in which it is to be installed, and that it is connected

to a wall outlet which has earth ground. The mains outlet that is utilized to

power the device shall be within 10 feet (3 meters) of the device, shall be

easily accessible, and protected by a circuit breaker.

• DC Powered Units: The interconnecting cables shall be rated for proper

voltage, current, anticipated temperature, ﬂammability, and mechanical

serviceability.

• Hazardous network voltages are present in WAN ports, regardless of

whether power to the unit is ON or OFF. To avoid electric shock, use cau-

tion when near WAN ports. When detaching the cables, detach the end

away from the device ﬁrst.

• Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods

of lightning activity.

In accordance with the requirements of council directive 2002/

96/EC on Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE),

ensure that at end-of-life you separate this product from other

waste and scrap and deliver to the WEEE collection system in

your country for recycling.

RocketLink-G 3088/I overview

The Patton Electronics Model 3088/I G.SHDSL RocketLink provides high speed 2-wire connectivity to ISPs,

PTTs, and enterprise environments using Symmetrical High-data-rate Digital Subscriber Line

(G.SHDSL) technology.

The Model 3088/I provides a 10/100BaseT Ethernet interface on a shielded RJ-45 jack, the DSL on an RJ-11

jack, and the RS-232 console port on an RJ-45 jack.

As a symmetric, full-duplex NTU, the RocketLink DSL offers equal data rates in both directions over a single

twisted pair using TC-PAM modulation. Line connection is made through the RJ-11 jack. Standard versions

of Model 3088/I are powered by a UI (universal 100–240 VAC) supply.

Figure 1. RocketLink-G 3088/I

Features

• Symmetrical high data-rate DSL (G.SHDSL)

• Data rates up to 4.6Mbps in 64-kbps intervals

• 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet interface

• RS-232 console port for management and conﬁguration

• Built-in testing and diagnostics

• RocketLink Plug ‘n’ Play for easy installations

• Interoperable with other Patton G.SHDSL modems

• Conﬁgurable as remote (CP) units

• Conﬁgurable as central (CO) units to operate back-to-back

• Front-panel status indicators

• CE marked
