VCL-SafeCommTM, 16 E1 Links (48 E1 Ports)      (1+1 Automatic Protection Switch)

Product Description

The VCL-SafeComm, 16 E1 Links (48 E1 Ports), 1+1 Automatic Protection Switching (APS) Equipment may be used to protect upto 16 E1 Links (48 E1 Ports), point-to-point links and provide an alternate communication route to



 

 
each E1 Link between any two E1 points.

In the event of the failure of the primary (Main) E1 communication route, the VCL-SafeComm, 16 E1 Links (1+1 Automatic Protection Switching Equipment) automatically switches the E1 traffic to a secondary (standby) E1 route. The VCL-SafeComm, 16 E1, 1+1 Automatic Protection Switching equipment is available in a 2U high chassis which may be mounted in any DIN standard,19-Inch rack.

This product allows the user to design 1+1 (protected) redundant E1 routes on similar (fiber-fiber), or complementing (fiber-radio) transmission mediums.

The criterion for switching between the primary (main) and the secondary (protected/standby) routes is user programmable.

Criterion for switching between the primary (main) and the secondary (protected/standby) routes may be Loss-Of-Signal on E1 links, or AIS (All-Ones AIS alarm) condition. The criterion for switching time and recovery time between the primary (main) and the secondary (protected/standby) routes is user programmable.

Data transported on the E1 Links is transparent and protocol independent.

Applications

Providing 1+1 alternate paths between any two Transmission mediums (active+standby). e.g:

  • Fiber/Fiber
  • Radio/Fiber
  • Radio/HDSL
  • Fiber/HDSL etc.

Example: The user may deploy the VCL-SafeComm, 16 E1, 1+1 Automatic Protection Switching Equipment to provide an alternate communication route between an optical fiber link and a radio link between any two points. In the event of the failure of the primary (optical fiber) link the E1 is automatically switched to the alternate route over the E1 radio, thus ensuring maximum uptime on all such 1+1 protected E1 Links.

Once the primary (optical fiber) E1 Link on the optical fiber is restored, the VCL-SafeComm, 16 E1, 1+1 Automatic Protection Switching Equipment automatically restores the communication to the primary (optical fiber) E1 Link. The switching and restoration criterion is user programmable.

Features & Highlights

  • High density protection switching equipment (upto 16 E1 Links i.e. 48 E1 Ports)
  • To provide an independent point-to-point, protected E1 Link between two "E1 USER PORTS" on similar (example fiber-fiber), or dissimilar (fiber-radio) mediums
  • To provide 1+1 E1 redundancy support to higher order multiplexers e.g. E2, E3
  • System configuration and management interface through "CLI" text based commands
  • Transport A-bis Interface on redundant E1 links
  • Provide 1+1 Protection Routing / Path between BSC and BTS
  • These ensure that mission critical voice, data, control and management traffic are properly supported and maintained even during E1 backhaul facility outages. When the primary (working) link fails, the E1 traffic is automatically switched to the standby (secondary) link to ensure maximum uptime
  • Through the comprehensive remote configuration and alarm management capabilities of the VCL-SafeComm, 16 E1, 1+1 Automatic Protection Switching Equipment the product may be used to improve network reliability and control
  • Traffic Protection
  • Alternate Facility Advantages
  • Service Differentiation Agreements
  • Increased Network Reliability Resilience
  • Media and Path Diversity
  • Remote Management
  • Alarm logging and monitoring
