Extel Communications - expandsl Backhaul Aggregators

Low initial CAPEX is key to enabling many small sites with DSL, but there must also be a low cost path to higher port counts and increased backhaul capacity, as required. All of this must be possible while retaining an easy migration to IP, when the time is right. Backhaul Aggregators are the solution.

Two C8as or C24as DSLAMs can be connected together, sharing a single ATM backhaul, and forming a ‘virtual’ DSLAM with twice the port count.

Backhaul Aggregators further extend this scalability by providing a path to higher port counts and backhaul capacity. By connecting up to five expandsl Central Office DSLAMs to a Backhaul Aggregator, an even larger ‘virtual’ DSLAM with a higher-capacity backhaul is created.

Whether it be T1/E1 IMA-4, OC-3/STM-1 or Gigabit Ethernet with all-IP operation, there is a Backhaul Aggregator to suit.

Features

· Connects up to five C8as DSLAMs for 40 ADSL ports
· Connects up to five C24as DSLAMs for 120 ADSL ports
· T1/E1 IMA-4, OC-3/STM-1 and Gigabit Ethernet variants
· Fully temperature hardened without any moving parts
· Remote software download capability provides for evolution in standards
· A Backhaul Aggregator + DSLAMs are treated as a single virtual network element in eEms

Benefits

· Provides high scalability of subscribers ports
· Allows backhaul to be grown as bandwidth demand increases
· Allows for matching of backhaul capacity with bandwidth demands
· Provides a clear migration path to all-IP networks and high-bandwidth applications such as video
