Tellabs Enhances Grooming of Digital Crossconnects

Tellabs has added support for Telcordia's GR-303 Voice Circuit Concentration to its Tellabs 5320L and Tellabs 5320LS digital cross-connects. The enhancement more effectively grooms incoming T-1s so that fewer voice switch ports are required to support the same level of service. With fewer voice switch ports, Tellabs estimates that network operators can realize savings from 75% to 83%.



The Tellabs 5320L/5320LS systems also now have surveillance port support that enables network operators to monitor thousands of DS-0 circuits simultaneously, which is particularly helpful for wireless carriers deploying FCC-mandated E911 location-based service. http://www.tellabs.com
