Wire-Wrap – The to-facility and from-facility wire-wraps are an alternate method in lieu of the amphenol connections.

Customer Side

Amphenol Connection – The to-CPE and from-CPE amphenols should be left-side oriented to prevent SCIM panel removal interference after amphenol installation.

RJ-48C – These modular jacks are an alternate method in lieu of the amphenol connections.

-48 VDC Terminal

Local DC power connects to terminal strip TB1 at the bottom of the shelf backplane. This power source is distributed across the backplane to slots 1 through 8 and can jumper to the SCIM TB1 to power the controller card.

NOTE

Both the shelf backplane and the SCIM card each have a TB1 terminal strip. This practice identifies the specific TB1 when referenced in the text.

3. CONFIGURATION

Shelf

There are no configuration selections on the shelf backplane. If -48 VDC is connected to TB1 on the shelf card there is no need for the power card unless for a spare power source.

Power Card

The PWR card has an AC power cord that inserts into a standard 110 volt AC grounded wall outlet. When AC power is in use, local power should not be connected to TB1 on the shelf card. The PWR card also applies power to the same TB1 shelf terminals, which in turn can be jumpered to TB1 on the SCIM card.

Protect Card

The protect card can receive power from either the network (span) or from the backplane (-48 VDC). To initiate the protect feature the card in slot 8 must support the technology of the channel cards that are enabled for protection. The protect card should also have span power capability to power the SCIM should that configuration be used.

Shelf Cards

Channel cards are individually configured to meet network or customer requirements. Certain cards only receive power from network span power. These cards do not have pin contacts for shelf power.

CAUTION

It must be determined if channel cards can receive both span power and shelf power. Some cards may malfunction under that condition.

SCIM Controller Card

Option switches on the SCIM controller circuit board are located behind an access panel. Remove the housing from the shelf to gain access to the panel’s thumb screw fastener (refer to Step 1 of the Mounting Procedure). See Figure 2 for SCIM Card connections, terminals, indication, and switches.

1xN specifications

ADTRAN 1xN is a significant innovation in the realm of broadband network technology, designed to enhance the capacity and efficiency of data transmission in various communications infrastructures. This technology is particularly beneficial for service providers looking to upgrade their existing networks in an economically viable manner.

One of the primary features of ADTRAN 1xN is its ability to support multiple optical network terminals (ONT) from a single fiber source, which drastically reduces the amount of infrastructure required for deployment. This one-to-Many approach allows network operators to extend their service reach while minimizing the cost associated with laying down extensive fiber networks.

ADTRAN 1xN utilizes both Passive Optical Network (PON) and Active Optical Network (AON) technologies. The PON technology grants high-speed data transmission rates, accommodating several service tiers and customer demands, while the AON provides enhanced flexibility and control over data flows for network administrators. This dual-faceted approach enables operators to choose the best deployment strategy to meet specific user needs, whether in residential, commercial, or enterprise environments.

Another characteristic of this technology is its scalability. Providers can easily integrate ADTRAN 1xN into existing networks without needing extensive overhauls, allowing for easy upgrades as customer demand for service increases. This feature ensures that investments in infrastructure remain relevant and capable of handling increased data loads over time.

Additionally, ADTRAN 1xN offers robust support for various applications, including Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), streaming media, and cloud computing solutions. The network’s architecture effectively prioritizes data traffic to ensure quality of service, critical for users relying on real-time communications.

ADTRAN also emphasizes energy efficiency in its 1xN solutions, aligning with global sustainability initiatives. By minimizing power consumption while maximizing performance, ADTRAN not only meets operational needs but also helps service providers lower their overall environmental impact.

In conclusion, ADTRAN 1xN stands out as an inventive and flexible solution for modern broadband service providers. With its combination of advanced optical technologies, scalability, extensive application support, and commitment to energy efficiency, it represents a significant advancement in delivering high-quality, reliable internet connectivity.
