Product Overview
Bundled Service deployment is a snap thanks to the ICX-250 from ADC Telecommunications.
ADCs’ ICX-250 allows cost-effective and quick deployment of analog voice and data services on a
single T1 access trunk.
The ICX-250 sports a sleek, low profile chassis and is configured via DIP switches, eliminating the
need for PC based craft interface and specialized training. LEDs are provided for monitoring the
status of ICX-250 under normal operation as well as under test conditions. Maintenance and
diagnostics are further enhanced via loopbacks and test patterns, all configurable from the DIP
switches. Additionally, network loopbacks can be used to test from a remote office.
ICX-250 addresses access needs for sites requiring economical adaptation of FXS analog voice
based key systems and PBXs to T1 services. ICX-250 supports TR-08 as well as ESF and D4
framing. Additionally, ICX-250 provides two high speed EIA530A/V.35 ports for insertion of
Routers or other data traffic in bundled service arrangements. For sites needing up to 24 analog
lines, with or without data requirements, ADC’s ICX-250 is an ideal solution.
The ICX-250’s primary function is to allow for remote termination of lines from a centrally-
located switch. Data ports are also provided on the unit for those applications where high speed
data deployment would be required.
The ICX-250 product is complimentary to the leading ICX-500 and Integrated Communications
Access server (ICX).
The ICX-250 from ADC Telecommunications - never before have bundled services been so
economical and easy to install and maintain.
