Ciena’s XCVR-GES101 Transceiver enables cost-effective transport of T1/E1 or low-fill SONET/SDH streams over packet.
The Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) module converts an OC3/STM-1 stream from its user port into circuit-emulated packets for transmission over a Packet-Switched Network (PSN). Each T1/E1 channel within the stream can be processed individually to create a high-density gateway between a TDM and an Ethernet or IP/MPLS network. Packets are transmitted via a 1 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) port on the host device through one or more PSNs (in the case of multiple operators, for example). At the remote end, packets are converted back to TDM traffic for handoff as TDM services.
