RIC-155 connects Fast Ethernet LANs over STM-1/OC-3c lines.
RIC-155 connects Fast Ethernet LANs over STM-1/OC-3c lines.
Typical applications for the RIC-155 from RAD are:
Transparent LAN services (see Figure 1)
Wireless and terrestrial backhaul (see Figure 2)
Enterprise connection
Low cost alternative to STM-1/OC-3c router interface.
Setup, control and monitoring of the RIC-155 are performed either inband, within the Ethernet flow or out-of-band using a dedicated port.
Management and user traffic are separated by different VLANs to ensure management security.
Management options include:
ASCII terminal
Telnet server
ConfiguRAD via a Web browser
RADview, RADs SNMP network management application.
Fault propagation mechanism disconnects the Ethernet interface, if the STM-1/OC-3c link failure is detected.
Comprehensive diagnostic capabilities include:
Real-time alarms to alert user on fault conditions. Alarms are reported to the management station and simultaneously relayed via a dry contact port.
Ethernet and SDH/SONET link monitoring.
The STM-1/OC-3c link can be ordered in a variety of fiber optic and coaxial interfaces. See the
product data sheet for more information.
