Diversity of rings
On top of the standard SDH/SONET ring
support, the Megaplex-4100 can support E1,
T1, SHDSL, or a mix of ring topologies. At sites
where 1.5/2 Mbps bandwidth is enough and
ring protection is required, the Megaplex-4100
provides a perfect solution in combining service
provisioning and ADM capabilities.
TETRA and maritime applications
The Megaplex-4100 supports a mix of E1/T1
and SHDSL infrastructure in a 2 Mbps ring,
eliminating the need for external modems in
longer distance segments of the network.
One typical application is a TETRA network ring,
which enables secure communications among
police, fire and rescue, and ambulance crews
from one central location. The system can also
be used for maritime communications within
territorial waters.
End-to-end management and service
provisioning
The Megaplex-4100 offers carrier-class service
provisioning features, including end-to-end path
management, to ensure continuous service
availability. Advanced SNMP management
capabilities support control and monitoring of
all network elements: SDH/SONET access and
ring units as well as remote POP and Last Mile
broadband access feeders and CPEs.
The Megaplex-4100 can be managed by the
SNMP RADview-EMS multiplatform element
management system service center application.
Alternatively, configuration and monitoring can
be performed either via Telnet or an ASCII
terminal.

Carrier-class service reliability
The modular, distributed architecture of the
Megaplex-4100 enables redundancy at different
levels of the network and provides a resilient
system with no single point of failure. Each
combined common logic, cross connect matrix and
broadband link module (CL) provides automatic
switchover between each two links − STM-1/OC-3,
GbE or both − within 50 msec, for 1+1 protection
against network or cable failure.
Hardware redundancy is provided through an
optional redundant power supply and CL modules,
with switchover to the backup CL links within
50 msec. I/O modules can also be configured for
redundancy and can be hot-swapped, allowing for
continuous service.
