Introducing the IES-708-22A
This chapter introduces the main applications and features of the IES-708-22A. It also
introduces the ways you can manage the IES-708-22A.
1.1 Overview
The IES-708-22A is an 8-port G.SHDSL device. The IES-708-22A aggregates traffic from 8
SHDSL lines to two Ethernet ports, and the eight G.bis ports can be bonded together to provide
up to 40 Mbps (8 x 5.69 Mbps) symmetric bandwidth to subscribers. Moreover, with different
FW, the IES-708-22A can act as STU-C or STU-R as needed. See
Chapter 57 on page 387 for
a complete list of features.
You can use the built-in web configurator to manage and configure the IES-708-22A. In
addition, the IES-708-22A can also be managed via Telnet, the console port, or third-party
SNMP management.
1.1.1 High-speed, Point-to-point Connections (STU-C/STU-R)
Use two IES-708-22As to create a cost-effective, high-speed connection for high-bandwidth
applications, such as videoconferencing and distance learning. The IES-708-22As provide a
simple, fast point-to-point connection between two geographically-dispersed networks.
In the following example, two IES-708-22As connect the headquarters and a branch office.
