1643 Access Multiplexer Am / 1643 Access Multiplexer Small Ams System Overview - Alcatel-Lucent 1643 AMS Applications And Planning Manual

Introduction
1643 Access Multiplexer AM / 1643 Access Multiplexer Small
AMS system overview
...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The 1643 AM / 1643 AMS are high capacity, flexible and cost-effective wideband
multiplexers which can multiplex standard PDH and SDH bit rates as well as Ethernet
signals to line transport rates. These systems are useful elements in building efficient
and flexible networks because of their wide-ranging in capacity in addition to a
compact and flexible design.
The standard 1643 AM / 1643 AMS without option card is capable of multiplexing up
to sixteen 2 Mbit/s signals into an STM-1 or STM-4 signal. The equipment is available
unprotected or with 1+1 MSP protection (with STM-1 aggregate only) in terminal
applications and SNC/N protection for ring applications.
The main board can be upgraded with one of eleven option cards as described in
Chapter 4, "Product description"
The standard 1643 AMS is capable of multiplexing up to sixteen DS1 or E1
(depending on the version) signals into an STM-1 signal. The equipment is available
unprotected or with 1+1 MSP protection in terminal applications and SNC/N protection
for ring applications. The main unit comprises 16 DS1 or 16 E1 interfaces and 2
STM-1 optical line interfaces. The optical line interfaces can be equipped with various
SFPs (Small Form-factor Pluggable units). All SFPs are equipped with LC connectors.
For the STM-1e interfaces 1.0/2.3 coax connectors are used. Additionally the main
board can be upgraded with one of eight option cards as described in
"Product
1643 AM
The 1643 AM is an SDH STM-1 or STM-4 Terminal or Add-Drop-Multiplexer
optimized to provide various tributary services, e.g. STM-1, 1.5 Mbit/s, 2 Mbit/s, 34
Mbit/s, 45 Mbit/s, X.21, SHDSL and 10/100BASE-T, to business and residential
customers. The main card is able to multiplex tributary signals into a 155 Mbit/s
(STM-1) or a 622 Mbit/s (STM-4) optical aggregate signal. The system provides the
ability to add one option card. In the access network, the 1643 AM can be installed at
the customer premises for fiber-to-the-business applications, or taking into account the
large temperature range, in street cabinets for fiber-to-the curb applications enabling a
variety of configurations. Other applications include LAN-to-LAN traffic on campus
networks or WANs.
The space-efficient design of 1643 AM allows for wall, rack or desk mounting; please
refer to the 1643 Access Multiplexer AM / 1643 Access Multiplexer Small AMS
Installation Guide.
This figure gives an outline of the basic 1643 AM building blocks.
