Falcon-STA

TDM Pseudowire aggregator with support for Carrier Ethernet, for smooth migration from legacy to packet

The Falcon-STA extensively supports aggregation of legacy services, carried over packet networks and offers a complete set of synchronization options.
This device is equipped with 4 x GE Copper, 4 x GE SFP and 4 x SFP ports for SDH/SONET (STMx/OCx). All ports can be used flexibly and operate at full wire speed.
A unique SysLink interface provides the means for full distributed redundancy on a system level.

Carrier Ethernet TDM Pseudowire aggregation of up to 252xE1s or 336xT1s into channelized 4xSTM1/1xSTM4 or 4xOC3/1xOC12
MEF compliant, supporting Ethernet Private Line (EPL) and Ethernet Virtual Private Line (EVPL) services with flexible mapping of the user traffic into Ethernet flows
Circuit Emulation Services (SAToP, CESoPSN, MEF8) with flexible and advanced synchronization schemes, including SyncE, 1588v2 (OC, TC and BC), external and integrated GNSS receiver
Powerful inter-system link facility (SysLink) to allow full Distributed Redundancy
Powerful inter-system link facility (SysLink) to allow full Distributed Redundancy
Robust bandwidth control mechanism and Service Level Agreement (SLA) monitoring per Ethernet flow starting at customer premises
Complete Ethernet OAM toolbox based on IEEE 802.1ag, ITU-T Y.1731, RFC2544, Y.1564 and MBD for OPEX reduction
Advanced high-speed protection mechanisms for link, path (G.8031), and ring (G.8032v2) service resiliency
