Next Generation Access: Falcon series

 

Multi Service Network Termination Unit (NTU)
With a throughput of up to 16 Gbps, full TDM integration, most advanced functionality and comprehensive, standards compliant OAM – yet modestly priced, the FALCON is probably the most attractive NTU available in the market. This device is targeted at businesses that require gigabit connectivity to support large frame transfers and high bandwidth applications.
The various models of the FALCON family are optimized for three applications: NTU for business Ethernet services, NTU for residential FTTB MDUs and for massive backhauling of wireless base stations. These applications offer a great advantage to carriers allowing them to standardize on a single platform that resolves most of their NGN Access needs. Further advantage arises from its ability to operate under different network architectures: point to point, point to point under the MetroStar™ platform, point to multipoint directly connected to any third party edge switch/aggregator, fast recovery ring, ultra-fast switchover for a 1+1 protection link and more.
The FALCON connects users to the edge at a BW ranging from 1 to 14Gbps. The basic model provides 8 RJ-45 ports 10/100/1000T and 4 SFP ports each of them may be user- configured as either UNI port (copper or fiber) or optical access (OA) network port. Up to six of the SFP ports are PowerLink ports, providing Dying Gasp functionality and 10 µsec 1+1 link protection. Other models provide up to 8 E1/T1 ports and 4 additional GbE SFP ports. When deployed in conjunction with FibroLAN's MDX series WDM multiplexers, both the Network bandwidth and the number of supported users may be further expanded.
All FALCON devices are packaged in robust 19"/1RU housings that allow the installation of a redundant (AC or DC) Power Supply. The system supports a variety of management and OAM platforms: SNMP, CLI, IEEE802.3ah (E-OAM), EEE802.1ag (E-CFM), Web and MA™ Technology that in conjunction with FibroLAN's ProxiMA™ server allow the most comprehensive OAM and management in an open environment; all these facilitate easy deployment within multi-vendor networks with virtually no integration efforts. Depending on configuration, the FALCON is MEF9/14 fully compliant.
