The ACX4000 Universal Metro Router is principally designed to provide superior management for rapid
provisioning to the access network. The ACX Series routers support rich Gigabit Ethernet and 10-
Gigabit Ethernet capabilities for uplink, along with support for legacy interfaces and Gigabit Ethernet
interfaces for radio and NodeB connectivity in a compact form factor that is environmentally hardened
and passively cooled. Seamless, end-to-end MPLS can be used to address legacy and emerging
requirements to provide the foundation for a converged network that utilizes the same mobile backhaul
infrastructure for business or residential services.
