ML700 Ethernet Access Devices
The ML700 family of Ethernet Access Devices delivers high speed Carrier Ethernet services over up to 8 bonded copper pairs utilizing VDSL2/ADSL2+/ADSL2/ADSL technologies. ML700 can support up to 420Mbps downstream and up to 160Mbps upstream. All ML700 platforms come in a compact 1RU high by half rack width wide, hardened, fixed form factor that can be flexibly deployed either as an EAD/NTU in a Point-To-Multi-Point scenario, or at both ends of the link in a Point-To-Point scenario.ML700 link rate and reach can be extended using Actelis’ BBA Broadband Amplifiers (VBA or ABA). The ML700 offer MEF compliant services, 802.1q VLAN-aware wire-speed bridging, double tagging (VLAN stacking), advanced provisioning using Ethernet Virtual Connections (EVCs), L2, L3 and L4 classification with flexible mapping into eight traffic classes to maximize the efficiency of access bandwidth. The ML700 can be deployed within Actelis’ compact enclosures offering integrated remote or local power modules for ease of installation.
ML700 EADs offer the highest link resilience and best-in-class customer Quality of Experience (QoE) through its unique implementation of SRA (Seamless Rate Adaptation) and Impulse Noise Protection (INP) mechanisms in accordance with G.inp for unsurpassed bonded-link reliability. The ML700 EADs provide proactive and dynamic tools for enhanced trouble shooting and monitoring capabilities. Advanced Carrier-class EFM OAM, including 802.3ah, CFM (802.1ag) and Y.1731 (ITU), are incorporated, offering both physical link as well as service level end-to-end advanced troubleshooting mechanisms. The ML700 EADs can be managed In and Out-of-Band by the Actelis’ MetaASSIST™ View and via the multi-platform Element Management System, MetaASSIST EMS. The management protocols include standard command line interface and SNMP using standard MIBs for seamless integration with third-party Network Management Systems (NMS).
The ML740 Ethernet Access Devices (EADs) delivers up to 260/160 Mbps of bandwidth (downstream/upstream), with extended reach, using standard EFM bonding over 2, 4 or 8 copper pairs by utilizing DMT (ADSL2/2+ and VDSL2) technology. The ML740 family of EADs delivers the longest reach with the greatest reliability and the most cost-effective solution for high bandwidth DSLAM and next-generation mobile backhaul (HSPA+ and LTE, Small Cell) applications. In addition to best-in-class rate and reach capabilities, ML740 EADs offer the highest link resilience and best-in-class customer Quality of Experience (QoE) through its unique implementation of SRA (Seamless Rate Adaptation) and Impulse Noise Protection (INP), and complying with G.inp for unsurpassed bonded link reliability. All ML740 EADs are hardened and compact devices. ML740 models offer 5 X 10/100BaseT ports and 2 SFPs 100/1000BaseFX ports.
