Application - Where is it used?
The XC 64 T1 electronic patch
panel is designed to be used in Central Offices, Data Centers,
Command and Control Centers, Remote Cell Sites, Utilities and Dealing Rooms seeking to
eliminate the jungle of external
patch-cords and loosely hanging wires which usually
exists in locations where patch panels
are installed.
Why it should be used?
Easier Management - The XC 64 T1 electronic patch panel allows
easier management of the cross-connects since all
cross-connects can be controlled and managed from a central
location over TCP/IP or UDP Network using either CLI (text)
commands, or a GUI or SNMP.
The XC 64 T1 electronic patch panel eliminates the use of patch
cords and the maze of loosely hanging inter-connect
wires.
Better Management - the XC 64 T1 electronic patch panel allows
better and more efficient management since a log of all
patches / cross-connects can be
archived as an MS (Microsoft) Access database files and retrieved
whenever required.
The XC 64 T1 electronic patch panel eliminates the need for
labelling the patch-cords and inter-connected wires since all
inter-connection records are
automatically retained in the system's non-volatile memory.
Additionally, the same can also be saved and archived as an MS
(Microsoft) Access database file from the system's GUI.
An Intelligent Patch Panel
The XC 64 Port T1 electronic patch panel keeps the
user informed of a potential problem by generating an alarm.
The XC 64 Port T1 electronic patch panel generates
SNMP V2 alarms and is supplied with an MIB file which allows the
user to easily integrate the XC 64 Port T1 Electronic Patch Panel
into their NMS (Network Management Software) for faster
trouble-shooting and fault rectification. This results in more
efficient network control and fault management.
The XC 64 Port T1 electronic patch panel also
maintains a log of the 200 most recent time-stamped events, as they
occur in real-time, by storing them in the system memory. These
events may be viewed at any time by a user. The system event log is
maintained in addition to SNMP V2 traps, which the equipment sends
out to a centralized NMS, when such events or alarms occur.
User friendly the equipment may be assessed remotely
using Telnet, GUI (Graphical User Interface) or SNMP over an
Ethernet link through the system's 10/100BaseT Ethernet Port. The
equipment may be also accessed locally through either an RS232 (DB9)
serial or a USB COM Port.
Additional Advantages
Automatic circuit protection and re-routing option
(available with optional software module).
The XC 64 Port T1 electronic patch panel provides the
user (optional software module) to re-route any T1 circuit to a
secondary route (secondary T1 Port) in the event of the failure of
the primary route (primary T1 port).
This feature ensures that critical T1 routes can be
automatically be protected on the cross-connect (in a “N”+1
protection scheme) and can be re-routed to secondary standby route(s)
in the event of the failure of the primary route without any
intervention of the maintenance staff. Such a feature is especially
useful at unmanned locations or at remote locations where the
maintenance staff may not be present at all times of the day to
provide immediate critical servicing, if required.
