1.3.4 What is the NTC STM-1?
The NTC STM-1 is a service interface module that concentrates the data traffic from all Cisco 6200
subscriber ports and connects the node to a single trunk line from the service-providing ATM
network. This full-duplex channel unit carries data both downstream (to the subscriber) and
upstream (from the subscriber).
The trunk is a full-duplex STM-1 fiber optic channel. One STM-1 channel terminates at a single
NTC.
The NTC STM-1 is available in both single-mode and multimode versions. Multimode fiber is
LED-driven and is designed for distances up to 2 kilometers (1.2 miles). Longer distances (up to
15 kilometers or 9.2 miles) require laser-driven single-mode fiber.
In the downstream direction, the NTC STM-1 accepts ATM cells at the SDH rate (155.52 Mbps) and
adapts these cells to the Cisco 6200 internal bus.
