FLASHWAVE 4470

Fujitsu's FLASHWAVE 4x70 Multi-Service Provisioning Platform (MSPP) series provides telecommunication carriers and service providers with a powerful solution to survive their fiercely competitive industry.

Integrating reliable and intelligent SDH functionality and efficient Ethernet aggregation and switching into a compact body, the FLASHWAVE 4x70 MSPP enables both traditional voice-based services and increasingly diverse data services to be delivered over a unified optical network.

Enriched with next-generation SDH functionality, the FLASHWAVE 4x70 MSPP allows carriers to not only simplify their network, but also to efficiently, flexibly, and dynamically use network bandwidth with a simple management procedure. In this way, the FLASHWAVE 4x70 MSPP helps to satisfy the growing end-user's demand in an increasing variety of broadband services at a substantially reduced cost.

The FLASHWAVE 4470 is an STM-64 MSPP optimized for Metro Aggregation and Metro Core network applications.
Typical node configurations are:

• Dual STM-64 rings with dual STM-16 sub-rings and 24 x E3/DS3 lines
• Quad STM-16 ring with 168 x E1 lines
• Dual STM-64 rings with 8 x GE + 32 x FE (L2 switching), and 64 x FE (Transparent)

Key Benefits

• High-capacity STM-64/STM-16-based platform to support dual STM-64, or up to quad STM-16 rings in a single node.
• High-density and flexible subrack architecture with as many as 16 universal interface slots.
• All-in-one-box solution to satisfy network and service demands from STM-64, STM-16, STM-4, STM-1, STM-1E, E3, DS3, and E1, to Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet.
• Reliable network supported by traffic protection schemes such as 1+1 MSP, SNCP and 2-fiber MS-SPRing for SDH layer, as well as and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) for Ethernet layer.
• Next-generation SDH functionality such as General Framing Protocol (GFP), Virtual Concatenations (VCAT), and Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme (LCAS) functions for dynamic bandwidth allocation, adjustments, and protection.
• Non-blocking, large-capacity switching matrix that's optimal for metro aggregation as well as core networks; 70G for high-order VC and 5G for low-order VC.
• Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) interfaces to deliver optical rate and parameter flexibility on a per-port basis.
• Common interface cards with FLASHWAVE 4270.

Ethernet Transport Features

• Data service applications such as EPL (Ethernet Private Line), EVPL (Ethernet Virtual Private Line), EPLAN (Ethernet Private LAN), and EVPLAN (Ethernet Virtual Private LAN).
• Layer 2 processing to reduce the bandwidth requirements, and therefore enable cost-effective data transport over the SDH infrastructure.
• VLANs or double-tagged VLANs to enable 802.1p QoS/CoS, as well as segregation of traffic flows, and thereby increase security without sacrificing bandwidth efficiency or network flexibility.
• Advanced Resilient Packet Ring (RPR) technology to provide high-reliable and efficient data transport with QoS control.

Management Features

• Speedy operation and maintenance through local craft terminal FLEXR L.
• Network element and sub-network-based management system FLEXR C, supporting all FLASHWAVE 4x70 products, to enable seamless management of all SDH, PDH, and Ethernet layers.
