Omnitron Systems Technology iConverter 4xT1/E1 MUX/M - Manual (Page 2)

APPLICATION
Telecom Application: Mobile Backhaul
The following application shows an example of the iConverter
4xT1/E1 MUX/M used in a hybrid TDM/Ethernet transport
network.
A wireless service provider has enhanced their network to
support 3G/4G services. The new equipment uses Ethernet
for backhaul at the Cell Site, while the existing legacy 2G/2.5G
equipment uses TDM (T1) for backhaul.
Using the iConverter 4xT1/E1 MUX/M at the Cell Site, the
service provider is able to multiplex up to four T1/E1 circuits and
one 10/100/1000 Ethernet on a fiber transport link. The fiber
carries the multiplexed traffic to a second iConverter 4xT1/E1
MUX/M that is installed at the Base Station Controller (BSC)
and Radio Network Controller (RNC). The 4xT1/E1 MUX/M
converts the legacy TDM traffic back to T1/E1 interfaces,
where they are connected to the TDM network. The MUX also
converts the Ethernet traffic back to a 10/100/1000 interface,
where it is connected to the provider’s IP network.
