Fiber and copper access options

When fiber access is available, the 1643 AMS is installed directly as CPE. If the last mile to the customer premise must be bridged through copper, the 1643 AMS provides a symmetric high-speed digital subscriber line (SHDSL) option. As a result, E1 over copper or 10/100BASE-T Ethernet access through up to four combined SHDSL copper lines can be served.

The base 1643 AMS configuration consists of a main board with 16 E1 ports, cages for two Small Form Fac- tor Pluggables (SFPs) and one option- board slot. The hot-pluggable SFPs used in terminal-multiplexer or add/ drop multiplexer (ADM) applications, are offered in three different types:

•STM-1 optical line interface:

S-1.1, L-1.1, L-1.2 (SFP)

•STM-1 electrical interface

•STM-1 bidirectional

In addition, there is an option board available to support one of the follow ing interface types: E1, DS1, E3, DS3, SHDSL and 10/100/1000BASE-T and 1000BASE-X Ethernet.
