Hitachi Energy FOX515H High capacity backbone platform

Hitachi Energy's FOX515H is a state-of-art utility multiplexer, scalable from DS0 up to

multiple STM-64. The FOX515H supports multiple rings for capacities up to STM-64.

and Ethernet over SDH for pushing packet data over TDM fibers.

Its non-blocking DXC’s allow traffic grooming at 64kbps-level as well as cross-connecting

at VC-12/VC-3/ VC-4.

Key highlights

• Highly scalable

• Compact and robust design

• Extensive protection mechanisms

FOX515H is a highly scalable device, which allows growing backbone capacities

from STM-1 up to STM-64 for the transport of TDM- as well as of Ethernet-traffic.

This very compact FOX-device provides extensive protection mechanisms such as

HW-protection for MPU and tributaries (two groups 1:N, N=1-5) and the full set

of traffic protection methods like MSP, SNCP and/or 2 / 4-fiber MS-SPring for

SDH-connections.

The fully redundant network element supports all SDH-traffic protection schemes

including 2/4-fibre MS-Spring. All optical ports are XFP / SFP based.

Fully integrated and managed boosters / preamplifiers / equalizers enable highly

flexible and reliable long-haul connections, without the need for additional external

devices. The robust mechanical and EMC-design including the distributed power

supply concept of FOX515H are optimized to cope with harsh environments which

are typical for utility applications. The mechanical, electrical and EMC / safety

performance of FOX515H is fully type-tested by an independent, certified Swiss

Test-lab. Most interfaces are provided with multirate SFP/XFP cages enabling each

individual port to have a different configuration with a wide variety of optical

wave-lengths for WDM, connectors and available ranges.

The integrated space-optimized optical boosters and amplifiers meet the frequent

utility requirement for long, repeater less spans.

FOX515H offers various types of Main Processing Units (MPUs), comprising the

system-controller, the clock & synchronization functionality and a non-blocking

cross-connect (DXC). For efficient network design and traffic grooming,

the DXC even allows to cross-connect at DS0 (64kbps) level.

If equipped redundantly, the hot swappable MPU’s work in main/ standby protection mode.
