Alcatel 3630 MainStreet Primary Rate Multiplexer

Description:

The Alcatel 3630 MainStreet Primary Rate Multiplexer (PRM) serves as a customer premises gateway to multiservice networks for a wide range of equipment. The 3630 MainStreet is a high performance, compact, intelligent T1 (1.544 Mb/s) or E1 (2.048 Mb/s) multiplexer, terminating up to 30 voice or data circuits. It digitizes analog transmissions and integrates voice and data circuits for transmission on a primary rate link. The HDSL module enables E1 transmission rate over the local copper loop without the need for repeaters or generators. The manual ring down (MRD) module (North America) or GEN-GEN module (Europe) supports voice interfaces that are typically used by financial institutions for dealer room communication applications.

The 3630 MainStreet can be equipped with two T1 interfaces or two E1 interfaces. The second interface can be configured to provide protection switching and drop-and insert capabilities. It supports the Alcatel 275x MainStreet IDSL Data Termination Units (DTUs), which allow for connections to multiple data devices up to 5.5 km away. The DTUs connect to the 3630 MainStreet over a single copper pair, thereby extending the product's reach for distribution of services.

The 3630 MainStreet offers many applications, including voice, data, and integrated voice and data networking; point-to-point and drop/insert applications; superate operation, providing connectivity for video conferencing, interconnecting LANs over the WAN; and leased bandwidth delivery in the local loop.

The Alcatel 3630 MainStreet PRM is part of the Alcatel MainStreet business access portfolio, a feature-rich and comprehensive suite of products, comprising multiservice access platforms (MAPs), integrated access devices (IADs) and network termination units (NTUs). With over 250,000 nodes deployed worldwide, it is considered the most successful digital overlay platform ever built.

Key Features:

  • Flexibility: Interface options include use as a gateway to the primary-rate facilities for a wide range of devices, as a managed termination unit, as a channel bank for MRD or GEN-GEN voice interfaces from dealer boards, or -- as part of a carrier network -- to distribute leased line services of up to 128 Mb/s in the local loop.
  • Capability: Can be equipped with two E1 or two T1 interfaces, the second of each pair configured to provide protection switching and drop-and-insert capabilities. Connecting to Alcatel 275x MainStreet DTUs enables connections to multiple data devices and extends the reach of each Alcatel 3630 MainStreet PRM up to 5.5 kilometers (3.4 miles) over a 26 AWG twisted pair.
  • Value: Offers an HDSL module that provides E1/T1 rates over a local copper loop without repeaters or generators.
