Modules

Overcome the limitations of legacy network technologies in your access network (PDH, SONET, SDH) and evolve beyond a circuit-switched transport networks to a future-proof packet-based network with the Cisco ASR 900 Series. The ASR 900 Series addresses legacy network inefficiencies by delivering a cost-effective, modular solution based on a protocol-independent fabric architecture. The ASR 900 Series, delivers unbounded scale with Circuit Emulation (CEM) and Optical Transport Network (OTN) capabilities, in addition to supporting Carrier Ethernet business services, over a redundant and protected packet-based network (Multiprotocol Label Switching [MPLS]/FlexLSP).

Cisco ASR 900 Series 6-port E&M Module (A900-IMA6EM)

This interface module delivers 6 ports of Ear and Mouth (E&M) interfaces. The design emphasizes Smart-Grid and low-latency applications environments. Typical uses cases for this module are Teleprotection and Land Mobile Radio applications. The module supports E&M type I, II, III, and V on 2 or 4 wire modes with selectable 600 or 900 ohm impedances. The physical connectivity on the interface module is using standards based RJ-45 connectors. The E&M signals and voice data can be transported using CESoPSN with and without Channel Attached Signaling (CAS) over MPLS.

Cisco^® ASR 900 Series interface modules are designed to support a wide range of services, speeds, temperature ranges, and capabilities. They provide cost-effective delivery of converged circuit emulation, optical transport network and business Ethernet services.
