FCD-IP
E1/T1 or Fractional E1/T1 Access Unit
with Integrated Router
The FCD-IP is an access unit for full or fractional
E1/T1 services with an integrated router. It can
be ordered with one or two independent
Ethernet LAN ports or alternatively with an
integrated four-port switch that can replace an
external hub or switch. An optional data port,
sub-E1/T1 drop-and-insert port or four analog
ports (FXS, FXO, E&M) are also available. The
data port rates are selectable for any multiple of
56 kbps or 64 kbps, up to 1,984 kbps.
The FCD-IP is available with a software
selectable internal LTU, and allows direct
connection to the E1 network or connection via
an external LTU. A built-in CSU/DSU allows direct
connection to a T1 network.
Integrated router
The integrated router supports:
• IP/IPX routing and transparent bridging
• Backup router link capability
• Quick setup and configuration
• Solid Firewall™ (session-based) protection
• NAT and Single IP address translation
• PAP/CHAP security
• OSPF, RIP-1, RIP-2
The FCD-IP can also be used as an integrating
multiplexer for LAN, data and fractional E1/T1
services.
The FCD-IP operates with RAD’s modular DXC
multiservice access node products for multilink
star applications, including access to SDH
networks. The DXC and FCD-IP units operate
under centralized SNMP network management.
Timeslot assignment is programmable, allowing
data from the LAN, sub-E1/T1, analog voice, and
data ports to be placed into timeslots, either
consecutively or alternately. The FCD-IP also
allows flexible allocation of the data port
timeslots. Each timeslot of the sub-E1/T1 port is
placed on the same timeslot of the main E1/T1
link.
Ring and drop-and-insert capabilities
FCD-IP provides up to four fractional E1 links
with automatic bypass in case of link failure.
This unit can be deployed in ring and
daisy-chain applications together with the
Megaplex multiplexers, to affordably connect
smaller sites to the E1 ring, while offering the
same self-healing link protection capabilities as
the larger devices.
The E1 unit meets all requirements of ITU
recommendations G.703, G.704, G.706 and
G.732.
The T1 interface is compatible with virtually all
carrier-provided T1 services.
Management and maintenance
Setup, control and monitoring of status and
diagnostic information can be done using:
•
ASCII terminal connected to control port
•
Telnet
•
SNMP management
•
Inband management via dedicated timeslot
The FCD-IP supports an internal SNMP agent
and can be controlled by any generic SNMP
station or by the RADview SNMP network
management application.
The FCD-IP supports dial-in, which can be used
for remote out-of-band configuration and
monitoring.
Maintenance capabilities include user-activated
local and remote loopbacks.
The FCD-IP is available as a standalone unit for
the desktop or a 19-inch rack shelf.
