| NEW GENERATION DCS OVERVIEW |
| The Digital Cross-connect System (DCS or DXC) performs a critical role in a network operator's transport or backhaul network. Designed to optimize network efficiency, these platforms switch and groom bandwidth at multiple levels of granularity for hand-off to the IOF network, or for distribution back into the access network. However, with the increasing capacity demands driven by the influx of new broadband, IP-based access services, scaling legacy DCS/DXC platforms - typically large, power hungry systems that are difficult to manage - becomes increasingly inefficient from both a capital and operational cost perspective. |
| Turin Networks lifts these limitations by building optional wideband/low-order bandwidth management functions directly into the company's industry-leading Traverse Multiservice Transport Switch. Available for a fraction of the cost of a legacy system, this new generation Digital Cross-connect solution offers all the functionality of traditional DCS/DXC, but in a much more economical, versatile and space/power-efficient form factor. Additionally, the Traverse platform's multiservice design integrates true layer 2 packet switching to support oversubscribed services, along with GFP-enabled support for VLANs, MPLS, TDM and IP. |
| A POWERFUL AND ECONOMICAL SWITCHING SOLUTION |
Turin's Traverse™ Multiservice Transport Switch is a true new generation DCS that offers all the functionality of legacy DCS, but in a much more economical, versatile and space/power efficient form factor. Adding wideband/low-order switching and grooming capabilities to the Traverse platform is as simple as installing an optional VT/TU Switch Module, which provides 5 Gbps of non-blocking VT1.5 and/or VC-11/12 cross-connection capacity. Leveraging the Traverse platform's patent-pending distributed switching architecture, multiple VT/TU Switch Modules can also be installed to enable in-service scalability from 5 to 20 Gbps of switching
capacity in a single Traverse 2000 shelf. |
| The Traverse platform goes far beyond the capabilities of legacy DCS systems. A single compact platform can also provide high-density electrical, optical and Ethernet access, scalable transport multiplexing and switching - including support for multiple inter-connected 10G rings - as well as optional Ethernet switching. As a carrier grade platform, the Traverse supports a variety of protection modes and provides comprehensive cross-connect provisioning and connection management via the intuitive TransNav™ GUI. |

| Multi-Layer Bandwidth Management |
With the seamless integration of wideband DCS capabilities via optional VT Switch Module(s), the Traverse™ Multiservice Transport
Switch creates an advanced multi-layer bandwidth management system that supports true "any to any" cross-connection ability (See Figure 1). Cost-effective expandability makes the Traverse platform ideally suited for DCS/DXC deployments in end-offices, or in hub locations. When deployed as a distributed DCS solution in an end office, the Traverse platform minimizes backhaul bandwidth requirements. In central hub locations, the Traverse platform serves as a highly-scalable and economical alternative to replacing or upgrading legacy cross-connects by switching and grooming traffic between the access network and core service-layer equipment such as Class 5 switches, ATM switches, and routers. In addition to the cost savings realized by providing better utilization of available bandwidth, this solution can reduce the need to purchase additional ports on legacy DCSs. |
| The wideband cross-connect fabric provides wideband/low-order switching functionality across all supported interface types. In addition to supporting standard DCS/DXC features like groom & fill, bridge & roll, and transmuxing the Traverse also supports integrated test access functionality, whereby interoperability with the Spirent® Network Tester enables carriers to test and monitor any circuit provisioned on the Traverse switch fabric. The Traverse platform is a fully integrated DCS/DXC, SONET/SDH and packet transport solution that simplifies carrier networks, while providing dramatic scalability and cost advantages. |
