DESCRIPTION

SDH/SONET uplink is capable of supporting either STM-1/4/16 or OC-3/12/48. While the access is provided through either a non-blocking VCn/VTn cross-connect with HS tributary modules or through an additional non-blocking DS0 cross-connect fabric with LS tributary modules.

With the PTN10G interface card, the O9500R-PTN will be able to further transport PDH/SDH/SONET over PSN network. With O9500R-PTN as a gateway between SDH/SONET and PTN, existing SDH/SONET network user will be able to migrate from SDH/SONET/PDH to PTN network, smoothly and seamlessly.

With up to 4 STM-1/4/16 (OC-3/12/48) aggregate interfaces on cross-connect modules and 8 STM-1 (OC-3) interfaces on tributaries, the Loop-O9500R-PTN offers service providers a versatile protection schemes including SNCP(UPSR) and MSP(1+1) protection for both ring and linear network topologies. The O9500R-PTN can work with the Loop-O9100 and Loop-O9400 for SDH/SONET networking.

The non-blocking VC11/VC12/VC3/VC4 (VT1.5/VT2/STS-1/STS-3) crossconnect capability on High Speed (HS) is up to 20 VC4. The HS tributary modules include optical STM-1/4 (OC-3/12), E3/T3, E1/T1 interfaces, FOM and Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet over STM-1/4/16 (OC-3/12/48). Ethernet signals are mapped onto STM payload through standard techniques such as GFP, LAPS, VCAT, LCAS, and non-LCAS. These HS modules are identical to those used in the rack version of the Loop-O9400.

The uplink non-blocking DS0 cross-connect to HS is up to 21 E1 or 28 T1. The non-blocking DS0 cross-connect capability on Low Speed (LS) is up to 768 DS0. Through a full non-blocking DS0 cross-connect and together can act as a mini DACS. The modules include variety of TDM, IP, and voice interfaces detailed on next page. All LS modules are identical to those used in rack version of the Loop-AM3440.

All interfaces are fully compliant with the relevant ETSI standards and ITU recommendations. The O9500R-PTN provides full Operation, Administration, Maintenance and Provisioning (OAM&P) functionality. Users can easily operate the O9500R-PTN locally or remotely for centralized management with Loop-iNET (EMS) and Loop-iNMS (Integrated NMS).

Application Notes

These application notes cover many aspects of Integrated Access Multiplexer applications. While some are specific to particular products, many are applicable to most any of our channel bank, IAD, or TDM aggregation products. The principles are the same.

We invest a great deal of time and effort creating tools like these to assist our customers, so most are available only to DCB customers. If you are one of our customers and don't have the required customer access password, please contact your sales representative to obtain your free password.

Voice Pass-through with Loop Products

A question about pass through voice DS-0 circuits was recently raised. Loop product mapping provides a choice of "d" for data or "v" for voice to be designated for each DS-0. FXS, FXO and E&M circuits must all be set to "v" for voice. If a DS-0 carrying voice passes in and out of a T1 as a pass through, must this be set to "v" for voice? The answer is "yes". See this paper for details on setting a pass through DS-0 to "v" for voice and for verifying the setting. Download the note in PDF format.
