Chapter 1 Introduction

This chapter introduces functions and structure of the EchoLife

HG520s Home Gateway (hereinafter referred to as the HG520s).

1.1 Functions and Features

The HG520s is a type of Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line

(ADSL) terminal. Data, video and audio are transmitted through the

common telephone line at a higher rate by the HG520s.

The features of the HG520s are:

 High transmission rate: The maximum downstream transfer

rate is 24 Mbit/s; the maximum upstream transfer rate is

1.2 Mbit/s.

 Strong network adaptability: The HG520s can be

interconnected with multiple Digital Subscriber Line Access

Multiplexes (DSLAMs).

 Strong maintainability: The HG520s provides multiple

indicator status, which is convenient to locate failures.

 Easy operation: The HG520s has a simple operation for the

configuration and management page.

1.2 Hardware Configuration

This section introduces the appearance and structure of the

HG520s.

Note:

Figures of the front panel and the rear panel are only for your reference.

The HG520s is in the bridging

mode; or it is in the routing mode

with no link established.

On LAN connection is established.

Blinking LAN data is being transmitted.

LAN1~4 Green

Off LAN connection is not

established.

Blinking WLAN data is being transmitted.

WLAN Green

Off No WLAN connection is

established.

Note:

PPP = Point-to-Point Protocol

Note:

If the HG520s fails to activate, it tries again after an interval. The ADSL

LINK indicator is off during the interval, lasting for about 1 minute.

Interface/Button Description

Antenna Antenna for wireless Internet access.

ADSL RJ-11 connector for connection with the telephone jack

or a splitter through a telephone line.

LAN1~4 RJ-45 connector for connection with the Ethernet port

of a computer or a LAN hub.

RESET

To make the equipment restored and restarted, press

the RESET button and release it within 3 seconds. To

make the equipment restore the default settings of the

HG520s, press the RESET button and release it after 3

seconds. Once you use this function, all your

customized settings will be lost. Therefore, please be

careful with it.

POWER Connect to the power adapter.

ON/OFF Switch on/off HG520s.

1.2.3 Splitter

The external splitter can efficiently reduce the signal disturbance

on the telephone line. When voice and data are transmitted through the

same telephone line at the same time, you need an external splitter to

separate the voice and data signals:

 LINE: Connecting to the phone jack on the wall.

 PHONE: Connecting to the telephone.

 MODEM: Connecting to the ADSL interface of the HG520s.
