M13 remains an important part of network
operations. Carriers need M13 elements that
are reliable, cost effective, and conserve
space. ADTRAN

TM

has applied its industry-

leading carrier-class expertise to the
MX2800

TM

M13 multiplexer, creating a

product that meets the most stringent carrier-
class requirements. The MX2800 offers
bandwidth consolidation at a low price and in
the smallest footprint available in the
industry. The equipment meets stringent
NEBS Level 3 requirements and is backed by a
10-year warranty. Measuring only one rack
unit high in 19-inch or 23-inch rackmount
configurations, this compact device gives
NSPs and enterprise users a powerful tool for
consolidating 28 T1 signals or 21 E1 signals
into a T3 circuit. The MX2800 is also available
in an STS-1 version.

The MX2800 houses two hot-swappable

controller cards that are capable of
combining independent T1s, E1s, or T1s and
E1s, on the same DS3. The two controller
cards also provide built-in 1:1 redundancy for
the DS1 and DS3 signals as well as redundant
DS3 connections. Advanced diagnostics
include CSU loopbacks, NIU loopbacks, C-bit
loopbacks and built-in BERT (Bit Error Rate
Testing) capabilities. A fully connectorized
backplane means no wire wrapping and
quick, easy installation. Accessories available
for the MX2800 include a DS1 patch panel
that breaks out the 28 DS1s into 28 individual
RJ-48 interfaces and a battery backup system
that provides eight hours of battery backup.

As with all ADTRAN products, the MX2800

offers comprehensive management options,
including full management and GUI support
from ADTRAN’s Total Access

®

EMS. It features

a VT100 terminal interface for local configura-
tion. To support SNMP and Telnet
management, the MX2800 has an integrated
10Base-T Ethernet port. Also available is an
optional integrated V.34 modem operable in
VT100 mode or SLIP/PPP mode for SNMP
and Telnet access. The modem is capable of
performing a dial-out “cry for help” for units
that are located in unmanned facilities.

Carriers who want to maximize their

copper investment and consolidate services
in the most efficient manner will find that the
MX2800 will pay off quickly. For example, a
bandwidth reseller who is co-located at an
unmanned site and backhauling local and
long distance voice service can use the
MX2800 to gain T1 access off Hi-Cap SONET
rings. The MX2800 is also ideal for
Competitive Local Exchange Carriers (CLECs)
who are also looking for an efficient means
for backhauling local and long distance voice
to or from the IXC or LEC. As Internet use
continues its rapid expansion, Internet
Service Providers are also well served with the
MX2800’s bandwidth consolidation.
