Introducing the ZyXEL Device
1.1
Overview
The ZyXEL Device is a single-mode optical fiber Integrated Access Device (IAD)
that combines a router with Voice over IP (VoIP) communication capabilities to
allow you to use a traditional analog telephone to make Internet calls. It
implements egress qeueuing and policy routing to manage outgoing traffic. It is
also a complete security solution with a robust firewall that blocks outside traffic
from entering the network.
Please refer to the following description of the product name format.
“H” denotes an integrated 4-port hub (switch).
“N” denotes wireless functionality, including 802.11n mode. There is an
embedded mini-PCI module for IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless LAN connectivity. All
wireless features documented in this user’s guide refer to the “W” models only.
“U” denotes a USB port used to share files via a USB memory stick or a USB
hard drive.
See the chapter on product specifications for a full list of features.
1.2
Applications for the ZyXEL Device
Here are some example uses for which the ZyXEL Device is well suited.
1.2.1
Internet Access
Your ZyXEL Device provides shared Internet access by connecting the WAN fiber
port to the broadband modem, router or directly to the fiber optic outlet in your
house. You can then use the QoS, Firewall and VoIP functions on the ZyXEL
Device.
You can also connect the
LAN
port of your ZyXEL Device to a broadband modem
or router to access the Internet via an Ethernet connection.
