The VCL100 STM-1/4
is a modular, and cost effective STM-1/4 SDH multiplexer
equipment designed to manage bandwidth and voice & data access
services over STM networks. The products are designed to support
end-to-end provisioning and management of services across all
segments of the optical network. It combines innovative optical
networking software with the intelligence of SONET / SDH to
deliver a flexible, cost-effective network solution.
Chassis
The VCL100 STM-1/4 is a 19 wide,
10.5 high 14 slot chassis, in a half-depth rack allowing
back-to-back arrangement for VCL100 STM-1/4s. This chassis can
be installed in both 19 and 23 rack with suitable adapters.
Hardware components
STM-1
Aggregate/Tributary Card
The
aggregate/tributary card has STM-1 interfaces. Terminal
multiplexer configuration can utilize an STM-1 card. Add-Drop
Multiplexer configuration can utilize either 1 STM-1 or 2 STM-1
cards. To provide aggregate card redundancy, additional card be
inserted in the second aggregate card slot.
STM-4 Aggregate Card
The aggregate card
has a STM-4 interface for terminal multiplexer or add-drop
multiplexer applications respectively. To provide aggregate card
redundancy for Terminal Multiplexer configuration, additional
card be inserted in the second aggregate card slot.
E1 Tributary Card
E1 tributary cards are supported.
E3 Tributary Card
E3 tributary cards are supported.
DS3 Tributary Card
DS3 tributary cards are supported.
10/100 Mbps Ethernet
Tributary Card (ETC)
ETC card maps 10/100
Mbps Ethernet data on to VC-12s with a rate adaptation
granularity of 2 Mbps. Each ports bandwidth is configurable in
increments of 2Mbps, based on per port user demand. The
aggregate bandwidth from each ETC card is STM-1 line rate (63
VC-12 worth of traffic), or lower.
Power Supply Card
(PSU1)
The power to entire
chassis is distributed from this card. This is a hot-insertible,
hot stand-by current sharing power supply, running off a 36V to
60V DC supply. This would supply power to all the cards. PSU1
can be configured to be redundant.
