  • Page 40: Single Link: Inline Topology

    Single Link: Inline Topology In the inline topology, the SCE 2000 resides physically on the FE (Fast Ethernet) link between the subscribers, which are usually connected through either a BRAS (in DSL access), a PDSN (in wireless access), a CMTS (in the Cable access), or a switch or router aggregator (in other topologies), and the network, where the SCE 2000 usually connects to a router or layer 3 switch network element.
  • Page 41 Figure 15: Cabling Diagram for Single SCE Platform Single Link Receive-only Topology The single link receive-only topology cabling is similar to that for single link inline, in that either the first FE link (FE-1 SUB/NET) of the SCE 2000 or the second FE link (FE-2 SUB/NET) can be used, as illustrated in the diagram above. However, in the receive-only topology, the SCE 2000 is connected to the external switch rather than being directly connected to the FE link.
  • Page 42 The following diagram illustrates the connections for dual links, with a single SCE 2000 deployed for both inline and receive-only topologies. For inline topologies, the SCE 2000 is directly connected to the two FE links, using the FE-1 and FE-2 ports as described above.
  • Page 43 Inline topologies can both Receive and Transmit to the SCE 2000. Cascade ports always require both Receive and Transmit to be connected. The following diagram illustrates the connections for a dual link, two SCE 2000 inline topology For inline topologies, the SCE 2000 is directly connected to the two FE links, using the FE-1 ports on the two SCE 2000s, while the FE-2 ports on both units are used as the cascade ports, as described above.
