XE1
AT-TN308-A 10 Gigabit Ethernet Network Module
Allied Telesis’ iMAP family of integrated
Multiservice Access Platforms
Aggr
egation of GbE Network Traffic
The XE1 module available for use with the
iMAP 9000 series is a new advancement in
network card flexibility and capacity supporting
10GbE.As network bandwidth continues to
grow, Service Providers find increasing
bandwidth requirements farther in the local
loop.The ability to maintain a single IP
infrastructure to address Network Transport
bandwidth as well as last mile access bandwidth
is pivotal for any network operator.The XE1
module is primarily intended to be used as
an aggregation element with the introduction
of Allied Telesis’ 10G iMAP common control
upgrade (CFC56) and the GE8 service module.
Combined, these modules provide 10G
transport bandwidth as well as aggregation
of up 8 EPSR
TM
rings providing an extremely
flexible, reliable and dense aggregation point
from any network location. As network designs
continue to blend the line between Access
and Transport, the XE1 will become a key
component of an
y Carrier Ethernet and IP
Triple Play network design.
The XE1 network module, available for use
with the iMAP 9400 and iMAP 9700 chassis
groups equipped with the CFC56 controller
module, is a new advancement in protected
10 Gigabit aggregation speed and transport.
The XE1 provides unmatched flexibility for the
aggregation of bandwidth-intensiv
e applications
and ser
vices including the deliv
ery of IP Triple
Play over any media (Fiber, Copper and xDSL)
as well as Carrier Ethernet services to
residential and b
usiness customer
s.
It contin
ues
to support the carrier-class capabilities from
the Allied Telesis Network Module family (GE3)
in addition to increased capacity and the
enhanced QoS capabilities.
Metr
o Ethernet Connectivity
Up to 2 XE1 Network Modules are supported
per an iMAP 9400 or 9700 platforms providing
unprecedented capabilities for the delivery of
user-centric services as well as network traffic
aggregation.When used in conjunction with the
CFC56, the 10 GE ports can be used as either
as network interfaces for subtended remote
locations using EPSR protected transport rings
with sub 50ms failover, aggregation into Metro
routers (Provider Edge) or for point-to-point
connectivity between PoPs. This is in addition
to allo
wing the service provider to support at
wire-speed non-blocking up to 17 different
service modules in the iMAP for delivering
value-add next-generation broadband services
and applications.
Part of Allied Telesis’ IP Broadband
Access Family
Whether it is Metro Ether
net, IP Triple Play,
Broadband VDSL2/ADSL2+, FTTH or POTS,
the iMAP famil
y is the ideal platform for last
mile service delivery. Added to the ability to
support 100% of the available iMAP service
modules,
the XE1 netw
ork module has also
been designed to survive the most rugged
environmental conditions. This makes it perfect
choice for networks which require high
flexibility and car
rier capabilities anywhere in
the oper
ator
s’
netw
ork.
Provisioning, management and diagnostics of
subscriber ports can be accomplished from
either the iMAP command line interface or via
the
Allied
View NMS.
The XE1 also has a full
y
supported SNMP interface and supports all the
major MIBs.
