Introduction to the EDA 1200 System
Figure 6 EDA 1200 Access Network
Some examples of utilizing different drop technologies and network elements
are shown in Figure 6 on page 9 . A second level aggregation switch (Ethernet
Switch) aggregates the traffic from the Access Nodes, and connects them to
the Voice Gateway and Edge Router.
The IP DSLAM supplies the End-users with Broadband services (BB services).
The BB services can include data, video, Telephony over IP and IP telephony.
These services can be supplied on top of existing Narrowband services (NB
services).
The Fiber Node supplies the End-users with BB services (the same BB services
as the IP DSLAM). The Fiber to the Home (FTTH) ensures a very high and
symmetrical bandwidth both upstream and downstream. Despite the name, the
fiber node (EFN) is also available as a CAT5 node.
An example of utilizing specific network elements is illustrated for the remote
site. In this example, vacant twisted pair copper wires are used as E1 or T1
using EDA 1200’s Fast Ethernet to E1 converter to transport the traffic. Other
vacant twisted pairs are used to supply the remote site with power (-48 V DC).
The power is then distributed to the nodes by an Ethernet Power Node (E
Power Node) over the Ethernet connections.
Most of the EDA 1200 nodes uplink connections facilitate both electrical and
point to point optical connections. The optical connection enables the use
of FTTx:
