To meet the increasing demand for Internet access and
Service Providers must be able to scale their network
access infrastructure and aggressively compete by offering differentiated services with a quick return on investment. The limitations of existing remote access products
have created serious challenges for Service Providers
looking to achieve a balance betw een their inv estments in
infrastructure and the potential revenue gains offered by
emerging voice and data services.
Product Brief
A new standard in carrier-class capabilities
The CVX 1800 and CVX 600
Multi-Service Access Switches
superior density and scalability
resulting in lower operational costs
that include:
• Smaller real-estate “footprint”
• Lower power consumption
• Less manpower
With universal port capabilities the
CVX 1800 and CVX 600 can
dynamically distinguish and handle modem, ISDN, VoIP, or FoIP;
thereby providing a single network
for voice and data, and further
reducing operational costs.
Aastra Network Access CVX MultiService Access Switches deliver
customer satisfaction by providing
industry leading performance and
reliability.
Superior density/scalability
• CVX 1800 handles up to 2,688
modem/ISDN connections in a
single chassis; four chassis per
7 foot telco rack, supports up to
10,752 connections
• CVX 600 handles up to 612 connections in a single chassis; ten
chassis per 7 foot telco rack, supports up to 6,120 connections
• Robust platform offers superior
card capacity; 192/204 modems/
ISDN per card
• Supports up to 96 E1 or T1 Digital
Access Card (DAC) connections
• Supports up to 4 channelized T3 or
2 STM1 (optical) DA C connections
– more cost-effective than mul-
tiple PRI or T1/E1 connections
– increases density by utilizing
fewer slots
– reduces T1 and E1 cable
management costs
• Supports multiple LAN/WAN
System Control Card (SCC)
interfaces
– Scales to meet a broad range
of performance characteristics, including Ethernet
10/100baseT,
2xOC3c/STM1 ATM,
2xDS-3 Frame Relay, and
52 Mbps HSSI
High-performance design
The CVX Multi-Service Access
Switch’s Flow-Through architecture
incorporates a range of powerful
features for superior performance:
– Non-blocking parallel buses
transfer data in its native format for faster processing
– ASIC-based Flow-Through
switching performs data transfer in a single-hardware cycle,
accelerating the transmission
of packets from switch to public network or Internet
– Distributed processing and
modular design for maximum
performance
Deployment flexibility
The CVX Multi-Service Access
Switches allow carriers and service
providers tremendous flexibility in
deploying their network access
infrastructure. Large Central Office
(CO) deployments looking for scalability are perfect for CVX 1800’s
2,688 ports per chassis and ability
to deploy 10,752 ports per standard
7 foot telco rack. However, many
carriers and service providers have
a combination of large POPs and
smaller geographically dispersed
POPs with limited space and operational power capabilities.
Aastra Networks CVX Multi-Service Access Switches
provide industry-leading density with universal port
capabilities to deliver high-performance, dial,
VoIP/FoIP, VPN, tandem, and the ability to wholesale
any of these services. Operational and real estate
cost savings are significant due to the CVX 1800’s
high port density of 2,688 ports per chassis, and the
CVX 600’s smaller footprint and lower power consumption; 612 ports per chassis.
CVX 1800 Multi-Service Access Switch
CVX 600 Multi-Service Access Switch
The CVX 600’s 612 ports per chassis and ability to deploy 6,120 ports
per 7 foot telco rac k, offer a smaller
vertical footprint, density, and lower
power requirements, to make it the
ideal solution for smaller POPs.
The CVX Multi-Service Access
Switches enable carriers and service providers to optimize their network and reduce operational and
real estate costs. The flexibility in
network deployment enables carriers and service providers to avoid
expensive power conversions and
maximize their return on investment.
High-performance and
reliability
• 100 percent throughput
• The only access switches to
offer true CO readiness
– Telcordia certified to NEBS
Level 3, Earthquake Zone 4
• Fully hot-swappable components
(including all cards) for ease of
upgrades and maintenance
• Redundant architecture (system
controller, trunk interfaces, and
access cards)
• Multi-processor system with distributed software and hardware
enables consistent performance
at any level of calling volume
• Up to 168 hot-standby modems
per chassis for improved reliability
• Distributed power capabilities
feature efficient thermal design
that dissipates heat evenly;
includes “intelligent” thermal
capability
• Point-of-Usage Power Supply
(PUPS) allows for increased
Mean-Time Before Failures
(MTBF)
Quality of Service (QoS)
The CVX 1800 and CVX 600 support a variety of QoS approaches.
The QoS strategy for the CVX
Multi-Service
Access Switches includes:
• Treating packets from IPSec
with priority
• Participating in the Differentiated
Services (IETF) architecture
(DiffServ), by setting the configured/messaged TOS bits in the
corresponding dial session IP
header
– Allowing switch/routing deci-
sions to be made on the
tagged packet by downstream
frame relay or ATM devices
Broad array of service
offerings
The CVX Multi-Service Access
Switches offer carriers and service
providers the delivery of rapid, profitable valueadded IP services such
as dial, VoIP, FoIP, VPN, tandem,
wireless, and the ability to wholesale
any of these services. With up to
2,688 modems per chassis and universal port capabilities, carriers and
service providers are now able to
take advantage of new revenue
streams without the added cost of
purchasing, managing, and housing
multiple platforms (refer to Aastra
Networks CVX Dial Access
Solutions brochure.
Ideal for wholesalers
Aastra Network Access CVX 1800
and CVX 600 offer unparalleled
scalability, flexibility, performance,
and manageability that enable
wholesalers to substantially lower
their installation, operations, and
expansion costs while offering the
broadest array of IP services.

The definitive solution for wholesaling, the CVX Multi-Service
Access Switches’ Virtual Point-ofPresence (Virtual POP) feature
enables wholesalers to partition
single or multiple CVX 1800s and
CVX 600s into a series of mutually independent access switches,
each with its own authentication
method, database billing system,
and management interface. With
the Virtual POP feature, wholesalers can customize their network
of CVX 1800s and CVX 600s
according to the specific needs of
each outsourcing customer.
SS7 interoperability
The CVX 1800 and CVX 600 interoperate with the industry-leading
CVX SS7 Gateway to provide cost
savings and alleviate switch congestion caused by Internet traffic,
thus improving network performance. By interoperating with the
CVX SS7 Gateway, carriers and
service providers can deploy the
CVX 1800 and CVX 600 in an SS7
environment rather than a PRI
environment, thereby reducing
costs by upwards of 50 percent.
The ability to terminate CO Class 5
switch data traffic reduces Internet
congestion. New services such as
data-only PRI and switch grooming
can be added to the carrier’s and
service provider’s offerings.
Flexible management
suite
Aastra Network Access offers one
of the industry’s most flexib le management suite for carriers and
service providers. CVX network
management enables network
managers to quickly and efficiently
configure, provision, manage, and
troubleshoot CVX products across
their entire network. In addition,
the Preside portfolio provides a
serviceware layer of management
for the entire Aastra Network
Access product offering, as well as
the ability to manage other vendor
equipment.
