Inband access to a remote unit across the T3 circuit can be performed manually by the user, or automatically by the host T3SU 300 unit. Time-of-day automatic reconfiguration allows custom... Less

M13 deployment, the technology that enables multiple T1 delivery from a single T3, is a fairly elementary yet important art for telecommunications carriers. Demand for T1s is affected by existing Remote Terminals (RTs) that are space constrained. Supplying a carrier-class multiplexer that can significantly increase T1 output while minimizing space has been the challenge for telecommunications equipment providers. Carriers facing costs for IP addressing save money because M13 capability can be added yet each MX2820 uses only a single IP address. Less
