The Alcatel-Lucent 1655 AMU obtains fault-management and performance information by monitoring the path overhead of each virtual container (VC). Alarm information is filtered and displayed locally, then transmitted to the management-center database. When equipped with an Alcatel-Lucent TransLAN Card, the Alcatel-Lucent1655 AMU also stores Ethernet-specific performance information.
Using adapter cards, service providers with existing Alcatel-Lucent 1643 Access Multiplexer (AM) and Alcatel- Lucent 1643 Access Multiplexer Small (AMS) systems can enjoy additional savings by reusing option boards from those systems.
