Tellabs 10 Gigabit Ethernet 226 (GbE226)
2/4 Ethernet ports
Tellabs continues to invest R&D into the Tellabs 1000 Multi-Service Access Platform (MSAP). The Tellabs 10 Gigabit Ethernet 226 (GbE226) helps our long-standing customers maximize the Tellabs 1000 MSAP systems, and service capacity, while minimizing fiber uplink requirements. The 10G GbE226 marks yet another significant R&D deliverable from Tellabs that can eliminate the ever-growing bandwidth bottlenecks in today’s access networks. It installs into new and existing systems with no cabinet augmentations required. You can continue to use any Tellabs 1000 MSAP transport interface and it can be managed using Tellabs Panorama Element Management Systems (EMS).
Expand Existing Systems
The GbE226 10G uplink has a total of six Ethernet ports. There are two ports with small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) that can be configured as either 10Gbps or 10/100/1000 Ethernet, and there are four ports with small form-factor pluggable (SFP) that support 10/100/1000 Ethernet. Having a total of six Ethernet ports provides flexible connectivity options to expand the capacity of existing Tellabs 1000 MSAP systems. This allows service providers to maximize bandwidth for premium services connecting residential and business customers by simply adding the GbE226 into Tellabs 1000 MSAPs installed in remote offices, or cabinets, that are already operationalized and managed by Tellabs Panorama EMS.
Aggregate Ethernet Connectivity
A GbE226 10G uplink can be installed in any shelf within a terminal and all of the gigabit Ethernet GbE222s in the terminals shelves can interface with it. The GbE226 10G uplink provides an option to backhaul the traffic over a 10G Ethernet link or 1G Ethernet link. Now you have a choice to backhaul that traffic over either 1Gbps or 10Gbps ports on that GbE226 back to the home office. Up to five (5) ports can be configured for aggregation. This helps aggregate gigabit Ethernet ports before they hit the fiber plant or the aggregation router.
Maximize Services Revenue
This GbE226 card with two (2) 10Gbps or 10/100/100 Ethernet (SFP+), and four (4) more 10/100/100 Ethernet (SFP) ports provides network operators with the potential of increasing revenues using embedded investments of their deployed network and helps conserve expenses by minimizing fiber use and optimizing switch/router ports. This additional Tellabs 1000 MSAP system wide capacity can be used for providing high bitrate, premium services or increasing the service area coverage.
Optimize Fiber Utilization
With the two 10Gbps interfaces on the GbE226, service providers can support high bandwidth applications from their existing access network across fewer fiber cables. Whether from central offices, remote office or remote cabinets, this 10G capacity can help telecommunications providers grow their network cost effectively by optimizing their outside fiber plant utilization.
