UTX8212
Universal Transport System

The UTX8212 multiservice cross-connect is a highly scalable hub aggregator, combining carrier class Ethernet switching and TDM DXC functionality in a single chassis. This combined functionality enables cost-effective Ethernet over native Ethernet infrastructure or existing T1/DS3 infrastructure using ITU standard circuit bonding. The UTX8212 can provide 3/1/0 DXC grooming functions for traditional TDM services as well, reducing the need to grow legacy DXC ports. Each UTX8212 scales to support hundreds of end points, providing grooming and aggregation for handoff of GigE to data networks and DS3 or SONET to TDM networks.
By enabling converged Ethernet and TDM service deployments that are scalable, cost effective, and future proof as the network evolves; Overture Networks delivers Intelligent Ethernet Today.
