Product Summary
RAD’s terminal multiplexers for SDH and SONET networks, the Optimux-1551 and Optimux-1553, combine up to 63 E1 or 84 T1 tributary channels or three E3 or T3 tributary channels (respectively), into a single STM-1/OC-3 uplink. Extending the local loop up to 80 km (50 miles), the Optimux-1551 SDH/SONET terminal multiplexer and Optimux-1553 SDH/SONET terminal multiplexer create a transmission layer fully compatible with regional and national SDH/SONET or IP networks.
The Optimux-1551 and Optimux-1553 were designed to meet NEBS-3 requirements, making these units ideal for large deployments. The Optimux-1551 SDH/SONET terminal multiplexer and Optimux-1553 SDH/SONET terminal multiplexer are typically employed by incumbent and alternative carriers to extend multiple E1/T1 or E3/T3 services from SDH/SONET networks to remote locations such as industrial areas or business parks.
The Optimux-1551 and Optimux-1553 SDH/SONET terminal multiplexers provide an extremely reliable platform that maximizes uptime for any mission-critical application.
Benefits
Cuts leased circuit costs and saves on costly ports on the SDH / SONET ADM by consolidating traffic at the edge of the network
High capacity at a low cost
Plug-and-play installation and operation reduces the need for advanced technical training and saves on installation and support time
Eliminates cost, rack space and management complexity by integrating multiple user ports into a compact platform
Carrier-class redundancy improves network quality of service and protects critical network traffic at all times
