8-Port Ethernet Module RJ45 Connector (9200-FE-BTX-08-RJ)

The high-density Ethernet (HD-ENET) module inserts into either one of the two expansion slots in the modular W1052 and W1063 platforms. Using two modules, you can configure the system with up to 18 Ethernet ports in only 1U of rack space (including the two Ethernet ports on the base W1052 system).

The module supports flexible encapsulation of data services into SDH tunnels using generic framing procedure (GFP) and virtual concatenation (VCAT).

With the HD-ENET module, you can configure the system to connect Ethernet traffic flows at the port and VLAN levels to any of up to 16 VCAT groups (VCGs) in the module. Each VCAT group has access to the full SDH trunk capacity of the W10-series system and supports configuration at the VC-3 and VC-12 levels. With two modules, you can configure up to 34 VCGs for the provisioning of Ethernet services in 64 kbit/s increments up to full rate.

The advanced Layer 2 functions in the module permit the connection of selected VLAN flows from any port to any provisioned VCG. Each VLAN flow may consist of a single VLAN or a range of VLAN IDs. As shown in the figure, the module supports dedicated connections into a VCG (that is, a single flow into one VCG) and shared connections (multiple flows into one VCG). For shared connections, QoS mechanisms that include rate limiting and packet scheduling with multiple priority levels ensure fair access to the shared VCG capacity.

The port density and expansion capability of the HD-ENET module makes the module ideal for use at a service provider point-of-presence (POP) to access and concentrate Ethernet traffic from multiple sites in an FrWay network. You can also use the module for sites that require a large number of dedicated customer access ports and leased lines.

The HD-ENET module is easily configured and managed through a simple Web-based GUI interface or the scalable OnSight NMS.
