STS-1 MUX
• P/N 1186005L1
The MX2820 STS-1 MUX is a multiplexer unit that plugs into an MX2820 chassis. The
MX2820 STS-1 MUX interfaces to a standard STS-1 signal from the network to provide 28
DSX-1 or 21 E1 outputs on the terminal side through the demapping of 28 VT1.5s or 21 VT2s.
Two MX2820 MUX cards are used together to provide a redundant STS-1 multiplexer circuit.
The MX2820 STS-1 MUX provides 1:1 redundancy and meets the requirements for NEBS
Level 3.
