APPLICATIONS
The WaveStar ADM 16/1 is a
single product platfor for
STM-16, STM-4 and STM-1
applications. Based on its
flexibility with regard to interface
units and cross-connect
capabilities, the syste supports
applications for bandwidth
access, service-on-de and and
network protection.
The WaveStar ADM 16/1 can be
applied in two tiers of the
network: access & regional
networks. The syste allows for
growth and changing service
needs by supporting in-service
conversions and upgrades.
Inherent to its basic design, the
WaveStar ADM 16/1 operates
equally well within fully
synchronous as well as
asynchronous environ ents and
provides a flexible link between
the two.
The WaveStar ADM 16/1 supports a
large variety of configurations for
various network applications (see
Figure 1):
· Ter inal for point-to-point
connections.
· Ring add/drop ultiplexer or
STM-4 and 16 rings.
· Access ux to DWDM, 10G,
cross-connect & SONET.
· Hub ux of STM-1 and STM-4
rings to STM-16.
· Groo ing of lower-order VCs.
· PDH front-end for digital cross-
connect syste s.
· Single ADM 16/1 for
interconnection of STM-16,
STM-4 and STM-1 rings
(Ring Closure on tributary
side).
· TransLAN-functionality for
10/100 BASE-T Ethernet
signals.
Traffic can be protected by:
· Path protection: VC-n SNC/N.
· Section protection:
MS-SPRing, MSP.
· Dual Node Interconnection
(DNI).
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This flexible product resulted
fro a big step forward in
technology. Due to the high level
of integration at the circuit pack
level, it is possible to add/drop up
to 504 x E1/DS1, 48 x E3,
64 x 10/100 BASE-T, 96 x
DS3/STM-0, 32 x E4/STM-1/OC-
3 or 8 x STM-4/OC-12 using only
one subrack. One rack with a
height of 2400 and 2600 ,
can acco odate two subracks.
The heart of the WaveStar ADM
16/1 syste is the Cross-
Connect, which has connections
with all interface cards (see
Figure 2). The Cross-Connect is
the core of the syste .
It enables the flexible routing of VC-4,
VC-3 and VC-12 between:
· Aggregate and aggregate.
· Aggregate and tributary.
· Tributary and tributary.
To contribute to overall syste
reliability and availability, the
Cross-Connect can be protected
by an acco panying unit. If
required, interface redundancy
can be provided. The flexible
design of the WaveStar ADM
16/1 akes it possible to place
interface units in al ost any
interface slot position of the
subrack. The Syste Controller
(SC) unit controls all ajor
functions of the WaveStar ADM
16/1 and co unicates with the
centralized anage ent syste
(ITM). Co unication is
established via the Data
Co unication Channels within
the STM-N section overhead
signals or via one of the Q-
interfaces of the syste . The
ITM-SC anages the WaveStar
ADM 16/1 at the ele ent level
and the ITM-NM can anage the
syste at the network level. The
ITM-Craft Interface Ter inal
(ITM-CIT) is used for anaging
s all networks and for
aintenance purposes.
The syste is synchronized by an
optionally duplicated Power and
Ti ing generator circuit pack.
Both 2048-kHz and 2048-kbps
synchronization interfaces are
supported. References can be
selected by and prioritized fro
a ong the synchronization
interfaces, STM-N interfaces and
2-Mbps tributary interfaces.
Reference protection is possible
by enabling the ETS 300 417-6
co pliant synchronization
essage protocol which uses the
S1-byte infor ation (SSM
support).
