General Information
1.1 Functional Description
MX-2100/2104 is an advanced, highly versatile user-configurable modular TDM
(Time Division Multiplex) system. The MX-2100/2104 system provides an efficient
and cost-effective method for transmitting data, voice and fax over digital data
services. Access to these services is provided over a variety of standard interfaces
(V.35, RS-530/V.36, RS-232/V.24, X.21, Standard DDS, codirectional G.703,
ISDN, fiber optic, T1, and E1), at data rates ranging from 9.6 to 1536 kbps.
Bandwidth utilization efficiency is 98.5%.
Main System Features
The MX-2100/2104 system can be equipped with various types of input/output
(I/O) modules that provide the required interface for the user data, fax, and voice
channels. The series of I/O modules includes:
•
High-speed synchronous data modules operating at a rate of 2.4 through
614.4 kbps – the KHS series of modules
•
Low-speed data modules (300 bps to 57.6 kbps or 64 kbps) synchronous and
asynchronous data channels, including statistical multiplexing modules – the
KLS series of modules
•
ISDN interface modules – the KHS.U series and KVF.4/S0 series
•
2W and 4W multiple voice channel interface modules that can directly
connect to PBX lines and two-wire telephone sets – the KVC series of modules
•
2W and 4W interface voice/fax low bit rate KVF.4 and KVF.8 modules
•
T1 and E1 PBX trunk interface KVF.5 and KVF.6 modules
•
Token ring extender module, KTRE
•
Ethernet Bridge/Router module, KMBE
•
Bypass and multidrop module, KDI (not applicable for MX-2104).
Detailed information on the specific MX-2100 modules can be found in the
separate module Installation and Operation Manuals.
The 3U high MX-2100 unit can be equipped with up to 12 I/O modules. 1U high
MX-2104 unit can be equipped with up to 4 I/O modules.
