Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX is a single-shelf network multiplexer designed primarily for access transport, business access, and regional interoffice applications transporting voice and data at the OC-3/OC-12/OC-48/OC-192 level via a UPSR, BLSR (OC-48/OC-192), or 1+1 linear optical extension.
Alcatel-Lucent's rich history of SONET multiplexers provides the foundation for Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX. Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX builds on that tradition by providing the tools necessary for the new generation of access networks: greater capacity, increased network flexibility, diverse functionality, and reliable service.
Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX, a SONET line terminating network element, supports a wide array of wideband and broadband transport, including traditional SONET transport of DS1, E1, DS3, EC-1, TransMUX, OC-3, OC-12, OC-48, and OC-192 signals, as well as 10/100/1000 Mbps LAN, 10GE, DWDM rings, and FICON/ESCON/Fibre-channel SAN transport. The shelf can be equipped to serve many diverse network applications and supports a variety of operations interfaces for current and evolving network operations needs.
There are 13 circuit pack slots in each shelf, consisting of the following:
2 Main slots (M1, M2) for high-speed optical line interface units (OC-3, OC-12, OC-48, or OC-192) or the Main Switch Pack (LNW80)
8 multipurpose Function Unit slots (A through D) for DS1, DS3, E1, TransMUX, EC-1, OC-3/12/48/192, 10/100BASE-T/X and 10/100BASE-T/ZX/LX/FX Private Line, 1000BASE-SX/LX/ZX, 10GE LAN, ESCON, FICON, Fibre-Channel service, and DWDM Mux/Demux
2 Growth slots (G1, G2) for OC-3/12/48/192, 1000BASE-X SX/LX, optical 100BASE-ZX/LX/FX, 10GE LAN, ESCON, FICON, Fibre-Channel service, and DWDM Mux/Demux. Growth slots can also host the LNW20 TransMUX card in portless DS3 mode.
The Growth slots are regarded as Function Unit slots and may also be used for additional features.
Important! DS1, DS3, EC-1, E1, and 10/100-T functionality is not supported in the Growth slots.
Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX provides a VT1.5 and STS-1 cross-connect fabric. Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX's main switch fabric is contained in each of the high-speed (network-side interface) circuit packs, located in the MAIN slots. The MAIN slots house OC-3, OC-12, OC-48, and OC-192 high-speed interfaces. They can also house the LNW80 switch pack. The LNW59, LNW82, and LNW504 VLF Main circuit packs enable 0x1 equipage. In many cases, this doubles the overall capacity of the shelf.

The High-Capacity shelf has the following characteristics (includes integral fan unit):
Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX is representative of ten years of Alcatel-Lucent's innovation and experience in network operations, control, and maintenance. Utilizing Level 1 and Level 2 Target Identifier (TID) Address Resolution Protocol (TARP), a consistent and standard form of address resolution is in place, enabling the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX network to be easily monitored and maintained.
Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX also supports standard interworking using the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) seven-layer protocol stack or IP over the DCC. The OSI seven-layer protocol stack refers to the OSI reference model, a logical framework for network operations standardized by the ISO. This provides for large networks up to 1000 NEs via level 1 area provisioning and level 2 routing.
Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX is designed for easy installation and operation. Centralized operation is supported by a full set of single-ended operations (SEO), control, and maintenance features. Integrated test capabilities and default provisioning simplifies installation.
Basic maintenance tasks can be performed using faceplate LED displays and controls, while a craft interface terminal (CIT) or a remote OS gives access to sophisticated maintenance, provisioning, and reporting features.
Built-in maintenance capabilities support both installation and system operation. Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX can be tested and installed without external test equipment.
