Model 2151 User Manual


The 2151 CopperLink modems provide high-speed LAN connections between peered Ethernet LANs, remote PC’s, or any other network enabled 10/100Base-T device.

Operating in pairs, one Model 2151 is configured as the (L) Local unit located at one end of the LAN extension and the other Model 2151 is configured as the (R) Remote unit at the other end. The Model 2151 is configured as a L or R via the switch on the bottom of the unit. These units can automatically forward LAN broadcasts, multicasts, and frames across a 2-wire voice-grade twisted-pair link. The data is passed transparently (unmodified) through the 2151s. The 2151s automatically add and delete MAC addresses, only passing packets across the CopperLINK link that are meant for the remote peered LAN.

These multi-rate Ethernet Extenders are ideal for bridging Ethernet spans inside buildings that are beyond the 328-foot (100-meter) distance limit of Ethernet.

For example, connecting remote LANs located on different floors in a building over already existing telephone-grade twisted pair
