Introduction
1. PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The MX2800 STS-1 is a SONET multiplexer that consolidates T1 and E1 signals into an STS-1 signal.
This unit provides a cost-effective, versatile tool for combining independent T1s or E1s over the same
STS-1 carrier.
Embedded SNMP (simple network management protocol) and Telnet are available through the modem
port using SLIP/PPP or through the 10Base-T ethernet port. Using the Management Information Base II
(MIB II), RFC 1595 standards, and an ADTRAN enterprise MIB, the MX2800 STS-1 can be configured,
monitored, and diagnosed with standard SNMP network management programs such as HP OpenView™
(from Hewlett Packard) and Spectrum
®
(from Cabletron). In addition, the SysLog Host Daemon allows
remote monitoring, collecting, and logging of MX2800 STS-1 events in real time. This information can be
useful during installation setups and/or troubleshooting.
Complete configuration, loopbacks, and performance monitoring are available through SNMP, Telnet, or a
VT100 terminal interface. This connection can be made via ethernet, a local EIA-232 link, or through the
built-in V.34 modem. The modem can dial-out a “cry for help” for units located in unmanned facilities.
The MX2800 STS-1 is designed for either desktop use or for installation in a 19-inch or 23-inch rack.
The major features of the MX2800 STS-1 are as follows:
• Built-in 1:1 redundancy
• Hot-swappable controller cards
• Independent, dual-load sharing, redundant power supplies
• Embedded SNMP and Telnet management through 10Base-T ethernet or SLIP/PPP dialup
• Detailed performance monitoring for local and remote units
• Simplified configuration through the VT100 terminal menu structure
• Integrated V.34 modem for dial-up and dial-out access
• Capable of backhauling multiple service types (T1/E1)
•AC or DC power
• VT Hairpinning
• VT cross-connect to any DS1
• NEBS Level 3 compliant
