integrated Multiservice Access Platform

CFC56

AT-TN407-A Central Fabric Controller module – 56Gbps

Allied Telesis’ iMAP family of integrated
Multiser vice Access Platforms

CFC56

Carrier Grade Controller

The CFC56 controller module, available for use
with the iMAP 9400 and iMAP 9700 chassis
groups, is a new advancement in controller card
capability and size suppor ting 10 Gigabit
aggregation speed. As network bandwidth
continues to grow, Ser vice Providers find
increasing bandwidth demands far ther in the
local loop. The ability to maintain a single IP
infrastructure to address Network Transpor t
bandwidth as well as last mile access bandwidth
is pivotal for any network operator.

The CFC56 provides unmatched flexibility for
the aggregation of bandwidth-intensive
applications and ser vices including the deliver y
of IP Triple Play over any media (Fiber, Copper
and xDSL) as well as Carrier Ethernet ser vices
to residential and business customers. It
continues to suppor t the carrier-class
capabilities from the Allied Telesis CFC family
(CFC12 and CFC24) in addition to increased
switching capacity and the enhanced QoS
capabilities.

With suppor t for multiple 10 GE and 1 GE
connections, the CFC56 enable the iMAP
platforms with unprecedented capabilities for
the deliver y of user ser vices as well as network
traffic aggregation. The CFC56 is ideally suited
for delivering GbE ser vices to any Enterprise or
business location relying on last mile fiber
access. With advance features including per
VLAN rate limiting, the 10 GE por ts can be
used as either as network interfaces for
subtended remote locations, aggregation into
Metro routers (Provider Edge) or for point-to-
point connectivity to a strategic business. This is
in addition to allowing the ser vice provider to
have up to 17 different ser vice modules in the
iMAP for delivering value-add next-generation
broadband ser vices and applications.

When used in conjunction with the iMAP
GE8 line card installed in the Resource Module
slots of an iMAP, a pair of GE8 modules can
be used to subtend up to 8 EPSR

TM

rings

providing an extremely flexible, reliable and
dense aggregation point from any network
location. If point-to-point aggregation links are
required, the GE8 ser vice module card provides
cost effective and feature rich aggregation to
any GbE network element. As network designs
continue to blend the line between Access
and Transpor t, the CFC56 will become a key
component of any IP Triple Play and Carrier
Ethernet network design

Part of Allied Telesis’ IP Broadband
Access Family

Whether it is Metro Ethernet, broadband
ADSL2+, FTTH or POTS, the iMAP family is
the ideal platform for last mile ser vice deliver y.
Added to the ability to suppor t 100% of the
available iMAP ser vice modules, the CFC56 has
also been designed to sur vive the most rugged
environmental conditions. This makes it perfect
choice for networks which require high
flexibility and carrier capabilities anywhere in
the operators’ network.

Provisioning, management and diagnostics of
subscriber por ts can be accomplished from
either the iMAP command line interface or via
the Allied View NMS. The CFC56 also has a
fully suppor ted SNMP interface and suppor ts all
the major MIBs.
