Scalable Architecture

In-service system expansion

>Switching fabric scales from 50 Gb/s to 450 Gb/s (full duplex, redundant, APS enabled)

>Single nodal entity (i.e., one logical management interface)

>Parallel, redundant optics used to interconnect shelves, integrated on common control

Peripheral shelf (PS)

>Single PS can be deployed as a stand- alone 50 Gb/s Alcatel 7670 RSP system

>14 universal, multiprotocol IP/MPLS/ ATM slots, each supporting 2.4 Gb/s user I/O, per PS

>Mid-plane design enables combinations of different optical I/O per line card

>Optimized per-PS configuration enables APS in all slots with zero fabric con- sumption for redundant cards

Switching shelf (SS)

>Fabric scales to 450 Gb/s

(full duplex) providing 320 Gb/s user I/O (full duplex)

>Enables 14 additional PSs to be added (15 in total)

Edge services extender shelf (ESE)

>Extends Alcatel 7670 RSP multiprotocol capabilities to low-speed, multiservice interfaces

>Subtended from PS via standard ATM NNI STM-4/OC-12c or STM-1/OC-3c interface

>Also deployable as a standalone 3.2 Gb/s multiservice switch

>12 universal, multiservice slots, each supporting channelized and unchannelized interfaces up to STM-1/OC-3

>two high-speed slots for STM-4/OC-12c or multiport STM-1/OC-3c

Interfaces

Any service, any port

>Concurrent POS and ATM channels within OC-48/STM-16 and OC-12/STM-4 interfaces (channelized to STS-1/DS-3)
