Legacy Interface Adapter Cards

As communications networks and applications are rapidly migrating to IP/MPLS and Ethernet infrastructures, many mission-critical and enterprise networks still have operational systems that rely on serial data and analog voice interfaces that must be supported. The higher-speed network interfaces used in PDH and SONET/SDH networks (T1/E1, T3/E3 and OC-n/STM-n) will remain in use for many years as networks transition to packet.

The Nokia 7705 Service Aggregation Router (SAR) supports a broad range of legacy data and voice interfaces, allowing networks to be upgraded to IP/MPLS for advanced services delivery, while maintaining support for existing operational systems.

Features and benefits

• Support for legacy and advanced services is provided over a single network with extensive network and service management capabilities.
• Legacy network interfaces simplify the transition from TDM-based PDH/SONET/SDH network infrastructures to IP/MPLS.
• Legacy voice and serial data interfaces integrated within the 7705 SAR system eliminate the need for a separate T1/E1 channel bank or multiplexer, providing capitaland operational cost savings.
• Service interworking with IP, Frame Relay and HDLC pseudowires provides flexibility, as well as bandwidth and cost optimization for serial data interfaces.
• The Nokia Network Services Platform (NSP) provides industry-leading network and service management for lower operational costs.
• Service Portal Express enables automatic controlled work order process and comprehensive report generation.
