CenturyLink Actiontec C2300A Modem User Manual

Deliver an ultra-fast and powerful home networking experience, with Gigabit access speeds, HD video, and multi-play services over any fiber network architecture. The C2300A supports fiber-to-the-home (FTTH), fiber-to-the-node (FTTN), fiber-to-the-curb (FTTC), and fiber-to-the-distribution-point (FTTdp/MDU). Dual-band WiFi (802.11n/ac) delivers wireless speeds up to 2.3 Gbps to enable your customers to get the best streaming and broadband experience anywhere in the home.

State of the Art Copper Technology

With support for G.fast, G.vector, G.inp, Reference Noise Cancellation, and the option to add GPON/EPON on SFP, the C2300A offers the most advanced innovations in DSL for faster speeds over copper including 1 Gbps on short loops. Plus with pair-bonding, the C2300A can travel on two lanes rather than one, delivering the extended reach and high bit rates of the latest bonded VDSL technology for a superior HD IPTV experience.

Secure with Anti-Hacking Technology

The C2300A offers an unprecedented level of security for Residential Gateways, helping protect your network resources, and your customers’ identity and assets, with defensive strategies like password protection,
firewall for protection against DDoS and brute force attacks, HTTP spoofing prevention, internal encryption, and other system-level mechanisms to prevent hackers from breaking in.
