Tellabs Ships Dense SDH 4/4/1 Cross-Connect

Tellabs began shipping a next-generation SDH switch node that it describes as the world's most dense 4/4/1 digital cross-connect. The Tellabs 6350 switch node is a scalable, high-density multiservice platform that handles voice traffic from 2 Mbps, higher speed leased line services and data services, including high-speed Ethernet. It has 138 Gbps of switch capacity and interfaces for direct integration with Ethernet, SDH and DWDM networks. When deployed in distributed network architectures, the Tellabs 6350 switch node provides efficient grooming with reduced back-hauling of network traffic, which leads to better network economics. Tellabs said it has received more than 30 orders for the product.
