The TJ3301 is a modular, multi-reach C/DWDM Multi-Service Provisioning Platform (MSPP) in the Tejas portfolio. Tejas TJ3000 series of products are characterized by a unique ability to combine SDH/SONET, Ethernet Switching, CWDM and DWDM technologies in the same enclosure.
The TJ3301 chassis has redundant fan units as well as primary power modules with front face connections. The card cage has multiple slots for plug-in units such as Transponders, MuxPonders, Multiplexing-Demultiplexing Units, Amplifiers etc. The top slot is dedicated for a Control Unit. A variety of service interfaces such as STM-1/4/16/64, DVB, 1G/2G FC, ESCON, Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces are supported. Up to 3 full-sized cards and 4 half-sized cards can be housed in a 3U enclosure.
TJ3301 can be managed using a Control Unit that contains the node management software and provides an aggregated management view of all units within the chassis. The Control Unit has a backup-copy of all Traffic unit configurations and upon a board replacement, the previous configuration and correct software version can be downloaded to the new Traffic Unit. A TJ3301 platform can ideally be used as an intermediate amplifier node or as a larger collector node for e.g. to aggregate GbE and 10GbE traffic for a cable broadcast or triple play applications.
