T1 16 Port DACS,
Digital Access Cross Connect Switch
VCL-MegaConnect Jr.
Product Overview
Orion Telecom Networks
Inc. offers
its 16 port T1
Digital Access Cross Connect Switch (DACS) (and E1 DACS)
for applications including access
cross-connect, Hi-Z (high impedance) monitoring, automatic
protection switching (1+1 APS). All models are available with TCP / IP
remote access and monitoring facility.
Orion offers the following digital cross
connect solutions:
The VCL-MegaConnect-Jr.
16 Port, T1
Digital Cross Connect Switch,
is an T1
digital cross connect switch, which presents its user an easy to use,
yet a sophisticated platform to cross connect up to 16
T1 ports.
T1 Digital Cross
Connect Switch offers full cross connect functionality to cross connect
and / or aggregate DS-0s, "n"x64Kbps consecutive data channels and
fractional T1
channels to full T1
channels.
The 16 Port T1 Digital Cross
Connect Switch occupies only a 2U high rack-space and is a complete
19-inch stand alone unit that provides connectivity of up to 16 T1
ports. The unit operates on a - 48V DC input power supply (AC input
adapter is optional).
The system is supplied with
a CLI text-based, easy-to-use interface that offers the user complete
control to prepare multiple configuration maps (and store them as data
files) and the ease of downloading them from a PC. Dry contact relay
alarms are also available at rear of the system to connect the system to
an external alarm.
The 16 Port T1 Digital Cross
Connect Switch also has a TCP / IP Access feature which allows the DACS to
be connected on a TCP / IP network (10 / 100 base interface) for remote
access for configuration and monitoring.
The 16 Port T1 DACS - VCL-MegaConnect
Jr can also be ordered for special non-intrusive (Hi-Z) monitoring
applications in which (pre-assigned monitoring ports) T1 ports can be
connected to monitoring/billing equipment for live traffic monitoring
(non-intrusive monitoring).
