VDSL2 Mini-Physical Interface Module Overview
Very-high-bit-rate digital subscriber line (VDSL) technology is part of the xDSL family of modem technologies, which provide faster data transmission over a single flat untwisted or twisted pair of copper wires.
The SRX210 Services Gateway supports the VDSL2 Mini-Physical Interface Module (Mini-PIM [Annex A]). The VDSL2 Mini-PIM carries the Ethernet backplane. When the Mini-PIM is plugged into the chassis, the Mini-PIM connects to one of the ports of the baseboard switch. The VDSL2 Mini-PIM on SRX Series devices provides ADSL backward compatibility.
The VDSL2 Mini-PIM (Annex A) is compatible with the ITU-T G.993.2 (VDSL2) standard.
Figure 1 shows the VDSL2 Annex A Mini-PIM.
