The CNX-5Plus is a compact, modular Broadband Loop Carrier (BLC) that enables carriers to selectively add broadband services to the installed base of narrowband digital loop carriers. The CNX-5Plus provides a simple and inexpensive means to expand DSL footprint and extend the capabilities and life cycle of older DLC equipment.
The CNX-5Plus™ provides up to 96 ADSL2+ subscriber ports in a single low-profile shelf that is installed directly inside existing cabinets. Costly site modifications—such as pouring new pads and adding adjunct DSLAM cabinets—are unnecessary. Integrated POTS splitters eliminate the need for external splitter shelves and an innovative "make before break" feature ensures voice services are never impacted, even when a DSL card is removed.
The CNX-5Plus supports copper and fiber network interfaces to provide the flexibility required in the highly variable outside plant transport network. Carriers can grow capacity in 4 port increments to match costs with revenues as market demand develops. The CNX-5Plus supports multiple subtending nodes, including mixed CNX-5 and CNX-5Plus ring topologies, to scale to higher port capacities while ensuring maximum transport efficiency.
Evolution of the platform feature set includes support for IPTV services, including Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) network interfaces for maximum compatibility with IP SDV Headends and evolving IP transport networks. The CNX-5Plus can start as a compact ATM DSLAM and later evolve to support GbE and IPTV services with a single card upgrade.
The CNX-5Plus is managed by the same proven CatenaView Element Management System (EMS) as the popular Ciena CNX-5 that is deployed in many carrier networks. The CatenaView EMS provides full GUI and flow-through provisioning management.OSS integration requires minimal additional effort due to the high degree of commonality with the CNX-5 system. TL1/CORBA Gateways allow for easy back office integration with higher layer management systems and all CNX network elements can be managed in a single EMS instance.
