Hybrid DS3 Broadband Module Set
|
Features
- 3-1-0 Clear Capable
- End-to-End Monitoring Eliminates Truck Rolls
- Mixed T1/E1 Configurations for Intercontinental Applications
- Enhanced Diagnostics Support Multiple Loopbacks and One-Time BERT Capability
Introduction
The Hybrid DS3 Application Module is a second-generation DNX offering with significant feature enhancements. This module allows for multiple T1 and E1 configurations in the same DS3 facility and provides additional diagnostic capabilities.
Capabilities and Features
Available features include ITU-T G.747 T1/E1 compliance and the ability to pass associated framing information transparently for 3-1-0 cross-connects. In addition, comprehensive monitoring and integral diagnostics capabilities, plus automatic module protection, ensure maximum service levels are maintained.
Benefits
The Hybrid DS3 Module suits any CLEC, ISP, or wireless carrier using DS3 facilities. The module can be configured for 28 T1s, 21 E1s or a mixture of T1s and E1s on the same DS3 link. Complying with international standards, this mixture of T1 and E1 improves flexibility for global carriers. Diagnostic capabilities of the Hybrid DS3 Module include an unframed 2^15-1 T3 BERT that tests the whole pipe, and all links can be put in loopback or pass BERT at one time.
Applications
The Hybrid DS3 provides a scalable solution for efficient backhaul. As the market space for fractional T1 customers increases, an M13 multiplexer wastes unused DS0s. If each DS0 is viewed as a revenue stream, this represents potential income that is not being capitalized. Another inefficiency of an M13 multiplexer is the need to lease another T3 span when the 29th T1 span is added. The Hybrid DS3, being a 3-1-0 enabler, saves a network operator from adding another DS3 prematurely. This recurring cost savings immediately impacts the bottom line.
