Ethernet/TDM access to frame relay and/or ATM service

Overview

Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX supports business data access applications for a variety of broadband service interfaces. These services can cost-effectively reach remote data aggregation switches at collocated sites and business premises.

Description

In this application, Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX transports DS1, DS3, OC-3, OC-12, and OC-48 (c) signals from an edge aggregator to the core switch. See Figure 3-13, Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX providing access to frame relay and/or ATM network. It also provides DS1 and DS3 (TDM) low-cost back-haul of frame relay and ATM to the hub multiservice switch. This application also provides 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet transport and switching.

Application advantage

Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX satisfies evolving data service delivery requirements for business customers through its flexible, scalable access network infrastructure, offering a next–Generation infrastructure that is stable against the churn of data technology.

Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX simplifies data service delivery by enabling access to existing ATM and Frame Relay networks through Ethernet and/or TDM interfaces. Thus, traffic originating at Frame Relay or ATM equipment can enter the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX through a 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet or DS1/DS3 TDM interface to be transmitted across SONET networks to its final destination (be it a Frame Relay/ATM based network or an Ethernet LAN).
