The Loop-AM3440-A/B/C series are Access DCS-MUXs that combine various digital access interfaces into E1 or T1 lines for convenient transport and switching. The Loop-AM3440 Access DCS-MUX provides access for a variety of TDM, IP, and voice interfaces. These interfaces are compatible with other Loop products. The AM3440 can act as a mini DACS: one or more of the WAN ports can be used as a Drop & Insert function with fractional E1/T1 lines, which can be muxed into a full E1/T1 line. Furthermore, the AM3440 also supports TDM circuit emulation protocols. TDM data and voice services can be encapsulated as Pseudowires and transported over ETH/IP/MPLS packet switch networks.
The AM3440 controller module provides full non- blocking Nx64K cross-connect matrix up to 2048 DS0. System redundancy is available in dual controller and power modules, making it an excellent fit for critical applications.
While 1+1 link protection is available for E1, T1, and TDMoEA modules, path protection for end-to-end Nx64K circuit protection is available for 3E1/T1.
The AM3440 supports local control and diagnostics by using a VT-100 terminal connected to the console port. It supports Ethernet, Telnet, and SNMP, so that it can be controlled and diagnosed from remote ends. An in-band management channel with GUI is available as well.
Each of the 3 models of AM3440-A, B, and C has a number of plug-in slots in regular size and mini size. (Card size to slot compatibility is detailed on the next page.) Most of the plug-in cards have LED indications.
The AM3440 consists of a rugged reinforced aluminum chassis, giving this equipment a durable structure and a long-lasting physical life.The AM3440 consists of a rugged reinforced aluminum chassis, giving this equipment a durable structure and a long-lasting physical life.
