ForeFront System Elements
ForeFront Next Generation DSL Network Access
The ForeFront architecture guarantees total non-blocking oper-
ation for any TDM application and for Packet switching applica-
tions over the redundant Packet Switching Bus (PSB). With the
ability to simultaneously transmit and receive on both full-
duplex 10/100/1000 Ethernet up-link ports, the 6511RC offers
unparalleled switching to any DSL, E1, STM-1/OC-3 media as
well as redundant PSB and TDM buses.
Patton’s ForeFront Access Solutions for DSL address the new point-
of-presence requirements demanded by today’s providers operating
IP and TDM networks. Using a modular approach, the ForeFront AIS
includes all system components to provide DSL access. Fully redun-
dant power and integrated cooling enable the lightweight chassis to
scale for density and services. DSL line cards offer the latest
ITU/ETSI G.SHDSL technology for true standards based connectivity.
Grooming facilities and high speed softswitch allow any-to-any
cross-connecting to T1/E1s or STM-1/OC-3 interfaces. Integrated
management gives command over the entire system end-to-end and
offers tools for fault detection, isolation, and correction.
