Fiber optic TDM Multiplexer combines E1/T1 or E3/T3 with Gigabit Ethernet

New time division multiplexer series for voice and data over a single point-to-point fiber optic line. Up to 8 E1/T1 ports and one gigabit ethernet can be transmitted. The power supply redundancy concept and the two mutually back-up fiber optic lines provide very high reliability.

Hamburg (PRWEB) July 28, 2004 -- The fiber optic multiplexer series "gigabit TDM" from ghip systems combines data and voice transmission over one fiber optic line.

Each device transports wirespeed Gigabit Ethernet together with 4x E1/T1 (gigabit TDM 4124), 8x E1/T1 (gigabit TDM 4128) or 1x E3/T3 (gigabit TDM 4321) in a point-to-point configuration.

The fiber optic uplink is implemented as a redundant SFP connector with 1,25 Gbit/s, to facilitate connectivity to freespace optic, a dark-fiber point-to-point line or a CWDM backbone ring according to the actual requirements. Using modern SFP transceivers, they can be connected to any single-mode or multi-mode fiber infrastructure.
Because of the SFP redundancy, a fully backed-up line configuration can be built.

An additional Ethernet switch with four 10/100/1000M ports is integrated, connecting the customer's LAN to the Gigabit Ethernet link. VLAN, QoS and bandwidth limiting are supported.

The E1/T1 or E3/T3 ports are conforming to G.703/704 and are fully transparent to all signaling or protocols. Additional formerly required leased lines for voice can be fully substituted.

All members of the gigabit TDM family have integrated management capabilities. Device configuration and control of each gigabit TDM device can be done by CLI, Telnet, or SNMP. SNMP management works Ethernet-inband, no specific management port is necessary. Software update will be easily done via TFTP or X-Modem.

The gigabit TDM devices have redundant power supply for 100-240V AC or -48V DC. Resulting from the power supply redundancy concept and the two mutually back-up fiber optic lines, a very high reliability is being achieved. Because of this, when using gigabit TDM devices telcos and carriers as well as enterprise network services can offer highly available access solutions with low cost-to-performance ratio.
Compared to SDH multiplexers, a very cost-effective solution is offered here.
