VCL100
STM-1/4/16 SDH Multiplexer
Multi-Services Provisioning Platform
Product Overview
Valiant VCL100 is an ultra-compact, carrier class and cost effective bandwidth provisioning STM- 1/4/16 SDH Multiplexer equipment designed to manage and deliver services from the optical core to the access.
The STM-1/4/16 SDH Multiplexer equipment supports end-to-end provisioning and management of services across all segments of the optical network.
It combines innovative optical networking software with the resilience of SDH to deliver a flexible solution to today’s service providers.
The VCL100 can be configured as a Terminal Multiplexer (TMUX), Add-Drop Multiplexer (ADM), Regenerator, In-Line Amplifier or as a stand-alone Cross-Connect. A variety of service interfaces such as E1/DS1, E3/DS3, STM-1e/o and 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet tributary interfaces and trunk interfaces at STM-1/4/16 rates are supported. The product features non-blocking cross- connect at VC-3, VC-4 and VC-12 granularity and supports drop and continue functionality.
As transmission networks are gradually being dominated by data traffic, VCL100 provides 10/100/1000 Ethernet interface to efficiently carry inter-office data traffic from a corporate LAN, traffic from an ISP, DSL or cable networks.
