This application shows an WCM3400 unit being used as the Ethernet demarcation device to deliver a Carrier Ethernet service from an MPLS core network. A wide choice of Ethernet connectivity is available for the user via the 10/100/1000baseT and SFP fibre ports. OAM support means that the WCM3400 can be remotely managed by the central network management system using standards based OAM packets. GFP is supported allowing single ended use with aggregation platforms in the core network.
WCM3400 units performing Ethernet service demarcation and media conversion
This application shows how a pair of WCM3400 units can be used to offer Ethernet service demarcation and LAN Extension functionality over four Framed E3/DS3 circuits.
WCM3400 units performing aggregation of services on multiple sites
This application shows how VLANs can also be used to select which site to forward user data to, e.g. when using a WCM3400 unit supporting four E3 ports at a central site supporting up to four sites with WCM3100, WCM3200 or WCM3400 units each supporting up to four E3 ports.
The WCM3400 is a switching media converter operating in store and forward mode. The WCM3400 supports auto-negotiation, and auto MDI/MDIX cross-over switching on the copper interface.
To ensure reliable operation, the WCM3400 supports Link State Forwarding, whereby a fault on the serial port will automatically force a link down on the user ports to indicate to the attached device that there is a link problem.
The WCM3400 supports the transmission of Jumbo frames.
The WCM3400 supports 802.3ah OAM which means that the Ethernet service can be managed and monitored right up to the customer delivery point. The future WCM3400 software development roadmap includes support for LACP, IEEE802.1ag and Y.1731 OAM standards.
The WCM3400 is provided with an SFP module with LC connector supporting for example 1000Base-SX for 550 metres operation over multi-mode fibre, or 1000Base-LX for up to 10km over a single-mode fibre.
The WCM3400 is ordered without an SFP fitted, although customers can subsequently change their interface type. Please contact Metrodata for price and availability of SFP modules including long haul, 1550nm, bi-directional and CWDM.
Compatibility:
GFP mode for use with LAN Aggregation equipment
The WCM3400 is available in a choice of 100-250 VAC or -48 VDC integrated power supplies.
The WCM3400 can easily be rackmounted in either a 1U two unit rackmount kit, a 6U eighteen unit rackmount kit.
The WCM3400 is part of a wide range of LAN extension products from Metrodata.
