Telecom Application: Mobile Backhaul

The following application shows an example of the

iConverter

T1/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 their existing legacy 2G/2.5G

equipment uses TDM (T1) for backhaul.
Using the

iConverter

T1/E1 MUX/M at the Cell Site, the service

provider is able to multiplex up to 16 T1/E1 circuits and one

10/100/1000 Ethernet service on a common fiber link. The

fiber carries the multiplexed traffic to a second iConverter

T1/E1 MUX/M that is installed at the Base Station Controller

(BSC) and Radio Network Controller (RNC). The T1/E1 MUX/M

converts the legacy TDM traffic back to T1/E1 interfaces, where

it is 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.
