Hardware description

Description

The 1643 AM and 1643 AMS units are compact and cost-effective STM-1 and STM-4 (AM only) multiplexer designed to be installed at the customer’s premises for fiber-to-the business applications or in street cabinets for fiber-to-the curb applications. The space-efficient design allows wall, rack or desk mounting within controlled or uncontrolled environment locations according to ETSI 300 019-1-3 Class 3.2.

The 1643 AM and 1643 AMS units can also act as an SHDSL Line Termination Unit (LTU) when equipped with the SHDSL option card. Several third party Network Termination Units (NTUs) can be connected to the LTU.

Powering

The 1643 AM and 1643 AMS units can be ordered either as DC or as AC powered versions. The power ranges are given in chapter 3.

Both units can also be AC powered by using a DC powered unit in conjunction with an optional AC/DC converter (see figure below).

Remote Power Supply

The1643 AM and 1643 AMS units, as SHDSL LTUs, are connected to third-party NTUs and SHDSL Regenerator Units (SRUs). To enable the remote powering of an SRU, an external power box called the Fernspeisemodul (FSP) box or the External SHDSL Power Supply (ESPS) box is delivered alongwith the unit.

This external power supply box is managed through the MDI/MDO interfaces located on the NE. The power box is monitored by manually setting the DIP switch on the box to “Managed” and setting the NE to the managed mode. There are also individual DIP switches to monitor each port on the box. The management system displays the status, “FSP on/off”, of the DIP switches per port.

The MDI/MDO interfaces on the power box can be used by the1643 AM and 1643 AMS units as the MDI/MDO interfaces for external signalling.

NOTE: It is not mandatory to have an LBO (Lightguide Build-Out) between the optical interfaces of the former 1643 AM unit and the connected optical cable. However, in the case of measurements with optical loops and/or connecting power meters an LBO (15 dB) can be required. An LBO can also be necessary to ensure the correct input power (see chapter 8, section Connecting the fiber cables).

Pluggable SFPs

The optical/electrical line interfaces of the1643 AMS unit can be equipped with various SFPs (Small Form-Factor Pluggable). Note that the GE SFPs are only applicable to the X5IP option card.

The following SFPs are available:

STM-1, S1.1 (CC109469809), short haul, 1300 nm, 15 km
STM-1, L1.1 (CC109469825), long haul, 1300 nm, 40 km

NOTES:

Please note that Alcatel-Lucent warranty is contingent upon the use of Alcatel-Lucent specified SFPs for the 1643 AMS. Use of other SFPs is not approved by Alcatel-Lucent and is fully at the customer's own risk. Any warranty obligation of Alcatel-Lucent is extinguished when non-Alcatel-Lucent specified SFPs are used.
It is not mandatory to have an LBO (Lightguide Build-Out) between the SFP and the connected optical cable. However, in the case of measurements with optical loops and/or connecting power meters an LBO (15 dB) can be required. An LBO can also be necessary to ensure the correct input power (see chapter 8, section Connecting the fiber cables).
If no SFPs are used, the optical/electrical line interfaces must be equipped with “Dust Plugs” (LPN: 700159437) to prevent dust and EMC emission. The dust plugs are part of the1643 AMS delivery.
