A CPX installation is scalable: first by populating an individual
shelf, then by adding additional shelves. Each CPX shelf occupies
12 RU (21 inches high) and is 17 inches deep.
Using optional mounting brackets, the shelf can be installed in
19-inch EIA310, Bell Wide, Bell Narrow, and NEBS2000 racks.
Reversible mounting brackets allow installation in 23-inch racks.
A single CPX-1000 can manage than 18,800 subscriber telephone
lines (at 9:1 concentration ratios) on a voice-over-broadband
network, including:
Circuit-to-packet conversion—converts DS0s from the
Class 5 switch into cell-based ATM format.
Routing—routes cells to and from IADs at subscriber
locations.
Call administration—manages call-control signaling to
both the Class 5 switch and the IADs.
Traffic management—monitors the connection over the
access network to each end user.
Concentration management—supports line
concentration levels up to 40:1.
System and Service Administration—acts as the
administrative platform for managing voice-over-packet
services.
The CPX supports up to 4,000 IADs, and supports two types of T1
modules, which may be used interchangeably: The Octal T1
module provides 8 T1 ports, and up to 6 modules may be placed in
the CPX. Echo cancellation or echo cancellation and compression is
provided on separate cards. The 12-port T1 ECAC module
provides 12 T1 ports, and up to 7 modules may be placed in the
CPX. Also, echo cancellation and compression is provided directly
onboard, eliminating the need for separate EC or ECAC cards.
The CPX also supports two types of STS-1 cards, which may be
used interchangeably. Up to 6 STS-1 cards may be installed in each
CPX. The STS-1 module does not provide onboard echo
cancellation or compression—you must use separate modules. The
STS-1 ECAC module includes onboard echo cancellation and
compression, eliminating the need for separate EC or ECAC cards.
