Save costs and space

Save up to 30% in capital and operating expenses

The Tellabs® 5500 NGX-S Transport Switch combines digital cross-connect and SONET transport technologies on one platform for unprecedented bandwidth management.

The Tellabs 5500 NGX-S switch combines cross-connect and ADM capability in a compact single-shelf system. Perfect for smaller applications in your wireless, wireline or cable network, the Tellabs 5500 NGX-S switch delivers bandwidth management features designed to scale with your business, deliver new services and speed responsiveness to your customers.

Tellabs NGX-S Transport Switch: Exceptional Performance

The Tellabs 5500 NGX-S switch combines high-density cross-connect, wideband and broadband capabilities in a next-generation platform.

Direct any-to-any connectivity at circuit levels from DS-1 to OC-48, support for high-density optics on every slot, and full VT-1.5 grooming capabilities enable maximum traffic control, performance monitoring and maintenance. And you pay only for the cross-connect capability required as port capacity grows.

Customer Benefits

  • Low start-up cost, small footprint and pay-as-you-grow bandwidth management scalability
  • Maximum control, monitoring and maintenance since every slot supports dense, high-speed optical connectivity with full transmultiplexing and drill down visibility into VT - and even M13 DS-1 payloads.
  • Save up to 30% in capital and operating expenses over current network deployments by fully integrating bandwidth management and transport functions.
  • Eliminates hidden future growth and operating costs typical of stacked Add/Drop Multiplexer (ADM) solutions deployed in DCS applications.

Product Features

  • Architecture versatility permits all I/O slots to support any module type, as well as non-blocking connectivity at any circuit level from DS-1 to STS-Nc.
  • High-density, single-stage switch fabric supporting TDM traffic management
  • Protected system capacity of 9408 VT1.5s / 336 STS-1s
  • High-density DS-3 module increases DS-3 capability by three-fold per module
  • Restriction-free universal slots yield tremendous flexibility and density
  • Robust SONET-based ring support
  • Integration of SONET ADM, wideband and broadband DCS and M13 transport functionality
