OCU-DP Card

Overview

Overview

The Single Port and Quad Port all-rate OCU-DP Service Cards provide electrical and physical termination of the 4-wire Digital Data Service (DDS) that is traditionally used to interconnect lower-speed serial synchronous Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) devices such as routers, Frame Relay Access Devices (FRAD), or video conferencing equipment. Now DDS can be integrated with DS0 voice, fractional T1 data, ISDN, and IP services – over multiple T1s or DS3s. This enables service providers to deliver transport for legacy enterprise data networking or Common Channel Signaling (CCS) circuits commonly used in Signaling System 7 (SS7) telephone networks using one card for all standard DDS types. Plus, it can be used as a replacement for low-density, unmanaged D4 channel banks.

The OCU-DP Service Cards provide scalable, independently configurable, synchronous data service rates from 2.4 Kbps to 64 Kbps, including Switched 56 Kbps data rates. Up to eight OCU-DP cards can be inserted into any of the service card slots of the Axxius 800, providing up to 32 DDS connections. These cards enable industry- leading density and cost per port at Central Offices (COs) hub and collocations (COLOs) and cell sites.

For example, the Axxius 800 OCU-DP ports can be groomed and mapped into any of the DS1 or DS3 ports of the Controller. The Axxius 800's (3/1/0) digital cross-connect functionality offers DS0 service grooming, T1 drop-and-insert, and voice access integration not available in traditional multiplexers.

The OCU-DP Service Cards have several local and remote management options available through the Axxius 800 Controllers. Cards can be locally configured and managed using the Command Line Interface (CLI). Remote management is accomplished directly over either an in-band DS0 management channel or a separate SNMP network connection, alternatively, remote management can be achieved through the Access Navigator® over the Facility Data Link (FDL) or an in-band dedicated DS0. Remote management will be further simplified using the graphical configuration, and management and maintenance interfaces available in future releases of the NetworkValet™ Enhanced Management System (EMS).

Axxius 800 specifications

The Carrier Access Axxius 800 is a versatile telecommunications platform designed to optimize and manage voice and data networks. Initially launched as a solution for service providers, the Axxius 800 has garnered attention for its array of features, extensive connectivity options, and overall flexibility. Leveraging both traditional and modern telecommunications technologies, this device stands out in an increasingly competitive market.

One of the main features of the Axxius 800 is its support for various voice and data protocols, including T1, E1, and DS3 interfaces. This multi-protocol compatibility allows service providers to integrate legacy systems with newer technologies, providing a seamless migration path for businesses looking to upgrade their communications infrastructure. The device supports voice over IP (VoIP) as well, making it an ideal solution for organizations transitioning to IP-based communication systems.

The Axxius 800 is equipped with multiple slots for modular interface cards, allowing operators to customize the system according to their specific needs. This modular approach not only enhances scalability but also ensures that the system can adapt to changing business requirements over time. Users can easily add or remove interfaces, ensuring that they only invest in the capabilities they require.

In terms of management and monitoring, the Axxius 800 features an intuitive web-based interface that simplifies the administration of voice and data resources. This centralized management capability enables easy configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting, dramatically reducing operational inefficiencies. Additionally, it supports SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), allowing for integration with existing network management systems and enabling proactive monitoring of network health.

The Axxius 800 also excels in redundancy and reliability. With dual power supplies and hot-swappable components, the device ensures minimal downtime, which is crucial for businesses that rely on constant communication availability. Security features are another focal point, as the platform offers various encryption and authentication options to safeguard sensitive data.

In conclusion, the Carrier Access Axxius 800 is a robust telecommunications solution that combines flexibility, reliability, and advanced features. Its ability to accommodate numerous technologies, alongside an emphasis on easy management and reliability, makes it an excellent choice for service providers and enterprises looking to enhance their network infrastructure while safeguarding future investments.
