GDC SpectraComm IP
Reliable Connectivity For Remote
Network Management
Highlights
• Low-cost, reliable routing or LAN-extension
• Supports scalable high performance LAN via 10/100BASE-T Ethernet
• Telco-tough NEBS Level III-compliant packaging
Introduction
As Carriers introduce IP equipment to their networks, GDC offers two access
solutions for LAN-attached IP
devices and legacy (Craft Port) devices. Either mode of operation can be
conducted over the Carrier’s T1 / FT1 or DDS network, as well as over a dial-up
PSTN.
• In router mode, the SpectraComm IP (SC-IP) provides management access by
extending the Carrier’s internal network to remote locations where separate IP
networks are required.
• In LAN-X mode, the SC-IP can be deployed as a LANextension device for those
remote locations where a
single ‘flat’ IP network is required.
Connectivity via IP Routing
Figure 1 demonstrates how the SpectraComm IP uses static routing to forward IP
data between serial WAN ports and an Ethernet (LAN) switch and connects to the
craft ports of up to eight co-located devices. Dial-in users may be authorized
for read or read-write access to remote devices over the private switched
telephone network.
Connectivity via LAN Extension
Figure 2: When placed in LAN-extension mode, the SC-IP extends the Carrier’s
local area networks. Deployed in pairs, SC-IP cards are connected to their
separate LANs via the Ethernet interface and are connected to each other
‘back-to-back’ via the T1 or WAN. GDC’s LAN-extension (LAN-X) is used as the
link layer WAN protocol.
Switched Ethernet Applications
When additional NEBS-compliant Ethernet connectivity is required, SC-IP can
integrate with SpectraComm Ethernet Switch (SC-ES) cards, offering scalable IP
connectivity in 9 or 18 port increments.
