Call 301-924-7400 ext. 17 for Information and Pricing

Coastcom's R428 SERIES 28-slot channel bank provides a compact, single enclosure solution to the problem of interfacing a variety of customer signals to OC3, STM-1, DS3, E3, T1 and E1. Hot-pluggable cards
interface directly to voice, serial, packet, frame relay, and ATM, converging traffic for economical use of costly trunks. Achieving reliability that is classed as 'bullet proof', the R428 includes dual load sharing power supplies, redundant controllers and 1:N protection. In this unique product, the protection is always 1:1 for the OC3, STM-1, E3 and DS3. The protection scheme for E1 and T1 is user selectable from 1:1 to 1:6. Continuous traffic flow is assured!


The R428 is both a DACS and a channel bank. It provides conversion between E1 and T1 with built in A-law to mu-law conversion. User interfaces include V.35, EIA530, RS232, X.21, FXS/O, E&M, MDSL, G.SHDSL, OCUDP, Router, T1/E1-ATM-FR, and terminal server with router.

Management techniques are extremely flexible. Use a VT100 terminal connected to the craft port or control the R428 locally or remotely using the SNMP supported Ethernet port. Supplement that by using Coastcom's user-friendly GUI EMS package, R-View. Customers report that R-View is intuitive and easy to learn. The same EMS controls all R SERIES devices. Choose from in-band or out-of-band management for the control path or use a combination of these techniques.

The R428 supports twenty-eight low speed interfaces (up to 2.048mb/s each) and one redundant high-speed interface, E3, DS3, OC3, or STM-1. Also supported is an OC3/STM-1/DS3 switch module allowing 1:1 electrical redundancy over a single span.

The ability to upload files for back up, system restoration, and system cloning enhances reliability.  Backup and restore functions support TFTP.
