YOUR BENEFIT
The Alcatel-Lucent 1677 SL offers SONET add/drop multiplexing, narrowband,
wideband and broadband cross-connect functionality, plus DWDM. It supports a broad
range of service interfaces and service features, such as virtual concatenation (VCAT),
Gigabit Ethernet broadcasting, section, line and path performance monitoring right
down to the DS1/DS3 level, and DS0 grooming. The Alcatel-Lucent 1677 SL offers a
class-leading 1536 x 1536 synchronous transport signal level 1 (STS-1) fabric as well
as second-to-none port density and switch density. The universal I/O is not constrained
by line or tributary restrictions, and fully redundant common control and switching
modules ensure quality of service (QoS) at the five nines standard or better.
