Quad T1 Card
Overview
Overview
The Quad T1 Service card enables service providers and enterprise network managers
to cost-effectively provision and expand network bandwidth or drop-side T1
bandwidth. The Quad T1 card can be inserted into any slot of the six-slot chassis and
supports an array of network access technologies, including full drop-and-insert
functionality, fractional and full T1 data and voice trunking.
When fully equipped with four Quad T1 Service cards plus the T1 Controller card an
Compact T1 can support can support up to 18 T1 access lines. This available bandwidth
enables the Adit to cost-effectively address small to medium sized business
requirements, multi-tenant units, fixed or mobile wireless backhaul, as well as end-
office applications. The flexible Quad T1 Service card allows physical connections to
either the front-panel 8-pin connector or the rear-panel 25-pair telco connectors.
As a component of the Compact T1 platform, the Quad T1 Service card provides
several local and remote management options through the Compact T1 Controller card.
The Quad T1 card can be locally configured and managed using the Command Line
Interface (CLI). Front-panel LEDs indicate each port’s activity and status.
