Backhaul consolidation of T1 remains an
important function in network operations.
With central office space at a premium,
carriers need an M13 device that provides
cost efficiency, compact size, and built-in
intelligent redundancy. ADTRAN

®

has

applied its industry-leading expertise in
developing carrier class products to the
MX2810

TM

M13 multiplexer

. The MX2810

offers bandwidth consolidation at a low price
and in the smallest footprint available in the
industry. Measuring only 1U high in 19-inch
or 23-inch rackmount configurations, this
compact device gives ILECs a powerful tool
for consolidating 28 T1 signals or 21 E1
signals into a T3 circuit.

The MX2810 houses two hot-swappable

controller cards capable of combining inde-
pendent T1s, E1s, or T1s and E1s on the same
DS3.  The two controller cards also provide
built-in 1:1 redundancy for the DS1 and DS3
signals, as well as built-in BERT (Bit Error
Rate Testing) capabilities.  When a T1 failure is

detected, the MX2810 will not swap to the
secondary board until it determines that the
failure is hardware-oriented and not a line
failure.  This intelligent redundancy feature
minimizes unnecessary hits to the line that
other M13 units may allow.

Like all ADTRAN products, the MX2810

offers comprehensive management options,
including full management and GUI support
from ADTRAN’s Total Access

®

EMS. It features

a VT100 terminal interface for local configura-
tion. To support SNMP and Telnet
management, the MX2810 has an integrated
10Base-T Ethernet port. It has an RS-232 port
for network management, as well as an 
RS-485 port for daisy chaining multiple units.
TL1 alarming and provisioning are also
supported.

The MX2810 meets the most stringent

NEBS Level 3 requirements. In addition, the
product is backed by an industry-leading 
10-year warranty.
