Total Access
®
1500 is a
Carrier-Class, multiservice access platform
for deploying narrowband services from
TDM network access. A compact, versatile
platform, Total Access 1500 integrates the
functionality of many Carrier products into a
single high-density chassis. Total Access
1500’s small footprint (2U-high mounting)
makes it the perfect choice for integrated
communications providers such as ILECs,
CLECs, and ISPs who need to deploy services
from crowded Remote Terminals (RTs),
Central Offices (COs), or Co-Location (COLO)
facilities.
Total Access 1500 provides a variety of
services including POTS, special services
(ISDN, DDS, FXO, FXS, E&M, DPO, DPT, and
PLAR), and data services. Total Access 1500
complements ADTRAN’s Total Access 3000
broadband multiservice access platform,
which can terminate and distribute higher
bandwidth services such as SONET, DS3,
HDSL, HDSL2, T1, and optical DS2. Total
Access 1500 can be deployed as a:
•Small Digital Loop Carrier (DLC),
for a simple and effective means of
deploying POTS (up to 96 lines in a
2U mounting)
•Special services delivery platform,
with up to five times the density of
any competing platform (D4)
• IAD, serving up to 96 customers
with voice and data services
Total Access 1500 is a modular device with
five common slots and 24 access slots.
Common units required for operation are a
Power Supply Unit (PSU), a Line Interface
Unit (LIU), and a System Controller Unit
(SCU). A second, redundant PSU and LIU
may be deployed for added reliability. The
PSU is available with an integrated ring
generator providing up to 40 REN ringing
capacity. The LIU can support up to four T1
interfaces and has full Time Slot Assignment
(TSA) capability. This feature allows users to
“steer” varied amounts of bandwidth from the
network to any of the access slots, ensuring
that no bandwidth is stranded. The 24 access
slots accept a variety of voice and data access
modules, allowing users to optimize their
service for each application.
Using local or remote inband manage-
ment, service providers can provision and
monitor the bank’s network interface and
access modules. Transaction Language 1
(TL1) protocol is used to communicate with
Te lcordia’s NMA Operations Support System
(OSS) using an internal X.25 PAD. An Ethernet
10BaseT connector is used for connection to
SNMP networks and Telnet. ADTRAN’s
ADVISION
™
software, run on a Hewlett-
Packard Openview workstation, provides a
graphical user interface (GUI).
Total Access 1500 is designed for 23-inch
relay racks. Full compliance with NEBS
Level 3 and UL 1950 ensures maximum
reliability and safety.
