The TraverseEdge™ 206 (TE-206) is flexible edge multiplexer that integrates SONET ADM and Ethernet switching capabilities in a rugged 2RU high shelf. With its support for a mix of SONET, Ethernet and TDM services, all of which can be fully protected, the TE-206 is optimized for applications in a variety of environments. The TE-206 has been certified by the MEF as supporting standard E-Line (point-to-point) and E-LAN Ethernet services. The NEBS-compliant, fully redundant architecture of the TE-206 provides:
|
 |
Fully protected high-speed optical (OC-48) trunks |
|
 |
Fully protected Ethernet services |
|
 |
Fully protected DS1/DS3 services and |
|
 |
Fully protected OC-3/OC-12 services |
| |
| Versatility and Reliability |
|

The TE-206 is a 2-slot shelf that can operate in a full 1:1 protection for all ports and common components. Each module provides 4 FastE, GbE, OC-3/12 front access optical ports, selectable on a per-port basis by simply installing the appropriate Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) interfaces, plus 4 FastE, 14 DS1, and 3 DS3 rear-access ports. Each module also includes an SFP optical port for high-speed OC-48 ring connectivity.
The versatile, reliable design of the TE-206 make the platform ideally suited for metro access deployments in central offices, co-location sites, and multi-tenant units (MTUs). Because the TE-206 is environmentally hardened (without fans), it can also be deployed in outside plant cabinets, cell sites and other extreme environments. In these deployments, the TE-206 complements Turin’s flagship Traverse® Multiservice Transport Switch, as well as the Traverse PacketEdge™, and other TraverseEdge products.
