FSP 150CC-324

The FSP 150CC-324 provides Ethernet service extension services over one or two bonded T3s or E3s with up to 89Mbit/s or 68Mbit/s of bandwidth, respectively. Support for both GFP and X.86 LAPS encapsulation ensures interoperability with a wide range of industry-standard switching, routing and transport platforms. Combined with its temperature-hardened design and four customer-facing ports, the FSP 150CC-324 is ideal for outdoor cabinet applications such as mobile backhaul and enables the re-use of existing transport infrastructure that does not have Ethernet ports to deliver intelligent Ethernet services.

ADVA Optical Networking’s patent-pending Etherjack® demarcation technology allows a carrier to provide an intelligent Ethernet service demarcation point compliant with the latest Operations, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) standards such as IEEE 802.3ah, IEEE 802.1ag, ITU-T Y.1731 and RFC 2544. Combined with an MEF-certified User Network Interface (UNI), the FSP 150CC-324 enables carriers to deliver Ethernet services that can be remotely monitored and managed with a minimal number of truck rolls. It provides the service intelligence necessary to encourage enterprise data users to make the switch from Frame Relay, Private Line and ATM services to a carrier-class Ethernet service.

Individual customers and services are separated utilizing the sophisticated UNI function that includes support for Ethernet Virtual Circuits (EVC) as well as hierarchical Quality of Service (QoS) management. Verification of Service Level Agreements (SLA) can be performed on a per-service basis to ensure high service availability for mission-critical applications.

As Carrier Ethernet networks scale, low-touch provisioning capabilities become essential to ensure cost-efficient service rollout and significantly reduce the need for truck rolls. With the extensive set of standards-based auto-configuration functions and remote OAM capabilities implemented in FSP 150CC-324, unskilled craft personnel can install and turn-up services without any onsite provisioning.
