RIC-155GE
Gigabit Ethernet over STM-1/OC-3 NTU
The RIC-155GE is a network termination unit
(NTU), providing cost-effective bridging of
Gigabit Ethernet traffic over STM-1/OC-3 access
or channelized OC-3 circuits.
Typical applications include IP DSLAM and
WiMAX base station backhaul, inter-POP
connectivity or high bandwidth private line
services. Using VLAN tagging and stacking,
Ethernet traffic can be delivered transparently,
while keeping user VLAN (CE-VLAN ID) settings
intact.
The RIC-155GE is equipped with either a
1000BaseSX/LX optical LC connector or a
1000BaseTX electrical Ethernet interface. The
optical STM-1/OC-3c network interface includes
single mode and multimode options.
The RIC-155GE maps Ethernet frames into four
fixed priority queues towards the network port,
based on VLAN priority tagging (802.1p). This
enables prioritizing and differentiation between
various user applications.
Advanced management options
The RIC-155GE features flexible management
capabilities, including local management via an
ASCII terminal (RS-232). In addition, remote
management can be performed either inband or
out-of-band, using the network or user ports,
while maintaining separation between
management and user traffic via the use of
VLANs. Advanced FCAPS (Fault, Configuration,
Administration, Performance, Security) and
diagnostic tools are provided by
RADview-EMS, RAD’s carrier-class element
management system, via a Web browser.
The RIC-155GE also supports a variety of access
protocols, including Telnet, SNMP, Web server,
and TFTP. Incorporated security features include
SNMPv3 and RADIUS.
The device collects statistics at the Ethernet
physical layer and the STM-1/OC-3c interface
frame counters.
The RIC-155GE is 1U-high, half 19-inch wide
with a rack-mount option, and is available with
AC or DC power supply. It is also available as a
level 3 NEBS-compliant box with power supply
redundancy.
