Ethernet over Copper Edge and Mini-Aggregation
- 2, 4, and 8 pair variants
- Up to 15Mbps per pair
- Up to 8 pair bonding
Overview
The HN400 family of Ethernet over Copper products offer carrier-grade temperature hardened demarcation and mini-aggregation in a small low cost form factor that enables carriers and service providers to deliver service-rich business broadband services to the last-mile.
The HN400-CP supports symmetrical bandwidth and services at rates up to 45 Mbps over existing copper pairs utilizing standards-based 2BASE-TL technology. By extending native Ethernet to business customers without fiber access, the HN400-CP offers greater service flexibility and efficiency than existing private-line or asymmetrical services do today.
Applications
Business Access – The HN family of products enable 1Mb to over 100Mb services as connections to offices typically providing Ethernet services over bonded copper where there is not fiber available. Typical business services carriers sell are metro Ethernet, Dedicated Internet Access, IP-VPN, VoIP.
Mobile & DSLAM Backhaul – The HN family of products enable 1Mb to over 100Mb services connection to cell towers, typically providing up to 100 Mbps backhaul services carrying both native Ethernet and native TDM with support for network timing synchronization. The product line is ideally suited for enabling high-speed backhaul to Mobile Cell Towers and DSLAM sites that are capital-constrained to be served by fiber.
Multi-Tenant Campus and In-Building – The HN family of products enable 1Mb to over 100Mb services for Campus and In-Building applications. The product line enables carriers to benefit by taking advantage of the existing copper plant on campus or up the risers in buildings, p realizing a huge cost savings while enabling high-speed Ethernet services.
Traffic Light/Video Surveillance – The HN family of products enable 1 Mb to over 100 Mb services for counties and municipalities who need to increase bandwidth to traffic lights for video surveillance applications where only existing copper plant is available.
