These devices can be used in multi-dwelling units (MDU), multi-tenant 
buildings (MTU), and in the hospitality industry, such as airports, hotels, 
and convention centers.

These units are sold in pairs with the AT-MC601 functioning as the 
subscriber and the AT-MC602 functioning as the provider. In an MDU, 
such as a university dormitory, the subscriber unit would be installed in 
each room and connected to a provider unit through the telephone 
outlet. Each AT-MC602 or provider unit would be located in the building 
wiring closet.

The AT-MC601 Extended Ethernet unit can be used as a desktop or 
wallmount device while the AT-MC602 unit must be installed in an 
AT-MCR12 rackmount chassis. Refer to ”Installing the AT-MC602 Provider 
Unit” on page 30" for installation details. These units are easy to install. 
They can be configured and managed through the MGMT port using the 
software provided on the installation CD.

When both the AT-MC601 Subscriber and the AT-MC602 Provider have 
been installed, the network extender system topology shown in Figure 1 
is complete.
