Clock Synchronization

ForeFront™ AIS

16-Port T1/E1 T-DAC

Digital Cross Connect

Model 2616RC

The Patton Model 2616RC is a software-programmable, non-blocking digital cross connect with 16 channelized T1/E1 ports and flexible any-to-any DS0 mapping.

Any port can serve as master or secondary clock source for the entire ForeFront chassis

Nx64 Speeds from 64 to 2048 kbps

Each port is independently selectable for any required bandwidth including clear channel (32 time slots)

Independent T1/E1 Port Mapping

Ports can be configured independently, sup- porting T1 & E1 ports on the same card

Port Fallback

A fallback port can be configured for any port to ensure non-stop switching of data

Fault-Tolerant Processing

Each module independently sustains switching with its own built-in processor for non-stop operation

SNMP/HTTP Management

SNMP/HTTP manageable from anywhere in the world including attached CPE units

Patton’s Model 2616RC TDM-Digital Access Concentrator (T-DAC) card provides afford- able, high density access concentration

and cross connection of DS0 time slots for most network applications. Patton combines 16 soft- ware-programmable T1/E1 ports that have inte- grated CSU/DSUs with a fully non-blocking, any-to- any DS0 switching fabric for implementing power- ful multi-module systems in Patton’s ForeFront Access Platforms.

Each T1/E1 port of the Model 2616RC supports user-selectable data rates from 64 to 2048 kbps. With a built-in cross connect, each data channel or channel group can be multiplexed onto any other T1/E1 port—even ports on other T-DACS (such as the Patton Model 3196 or 3096) in the same chas- sis.

Support for HDB3 and AMI line coding on E1 (G.703/G.704) ports and AMI and B8ZS line coding on T1 ports, makes the 2616RC one of the most flexible cross connects available.

Every 2616RC T-DAC has its own processing capa- bility, ensuring continuous operation and manage- ability even in the presence of multiple network outages. Support for primary and secondary sys- tem clock sources guarantee continuous synchro- nization with the other modules as well as the TDM network. To add to fault tolerance and reliability, fallback ports are configurable for any port to ensure that if the attached circuit fails, channels being carried on the failed circuit can be re-routed to another port. An integrated SNMP/HTTP-based management system allows for easy configuration via any SNMP-enabled NMS or via a web browser.
