The following figure illustrates the WaveStar CIT LAN Access
(Network).
The usage of shielded 100BaseT LAN cables is only allowed if the
applicable national safety requirements have been met by the user.
Otherwise, there is a risk of electrical shock and/or serious injury.
WaveStar CIT access via
Data Communications
Channel (DCC)
WaveStar CIT access to remote NEs can easily be done via the Data
Communications Channel (DCC) which are part of the SDH/SONET
aggregate or tributary signals. The CIT is connected via a
point-to-point connection to one NE of the network (cf. “Direct
Access”), which is then called the Gateway NE. All other NEs can be
reached by the DCC. Thus, no additional management network is
needed to connect the CIT to each individual NE.
