LoopStar® Metro 3600
SONET Multi-Service Transmission Platform
The LoopStar® Metro 3600 is an advanced, next-generation SONET multi-service transmission
platform that allows service providers to cost-effectively aggregate, deploy, and manage TDM
and Ethernet services. With its compact design and ability to scale from an OC-3 to an OC-192
network, the Metro 3600 provides a low-cost, high-growth solution for adding services at the
central office or at the edge of the network.
When used with the LoopStar 800, LoopStar 810, or LoopStar 1600 products, the Metro 3600
provides a cost-effective aggregation point for multiple subtending rings. The Metro 3600 also can
function as multiple virtual Add-Drop Multiplexers (ADMs) for hub node applications. In addition,
with its versatile cross-connect architecture and high port count, this platform is an efficient
alternative to existing cross-connect systems that require significantly more rack space at two
to three times the cost.
Spec Sheet
Benefits:
Provides multiple network protection
Aggregates and delivers TDM and Ethernet
•
services over a single transport platform.
Provides efficient support for point-to-
•
point, point-to-multipoint, or multipoint-tomultipoint traffic.
Supports network interfaces from an OC-3
•
to OC-192 and tributary interfaces from
OC-3 to OC-48.
Scales Ethernet services from sub10BaseT
•
rates up to Gigabit Ethernet using QoS in
conjunction with EoS features.
Offers modular slot design to grow the
•
network cost-effectively and add services
when required.

management) with redundant cross-connect
and management cards.
Reduces CAPEX by providing MADM and
•
3/1 DACS functionality in a single platform.
Provides sufficient traffic grooming
•
capabilities to reduce the need for costly
DACs ports.
Utilizes the same management systems

Features and Benefits
• Software selectable network protection offers support for UPSR, BLSR, or Linear 1+1 (LAPS)
• EoS (GFP, low order VCAT, and LCAS) allows for more efficient use of SONET bandwidth without affecting
the existing infrastructure
• VLAN support with 802.1Q-in-Q allows for transparent transport of customer VLANs, simplifying the
management of customer Ethernet traffic
• Supports the following Ethernet business services: EPL, EVPL, EPLAN, EVPLAN
• M13 and transmux support enables efficient use of network resources without sacrificing traffic
routing capabilities
• High-density support for DS1, DS3, OC-3, OC-12 and OC-48 tributaries provides a cost-effective
aggregation point for access networks and metro networks
• Flexible n:1 protection for DSn interfaces promotes further operational cost savings
• 8 RU design for central office deployments
• Low power consumption (350W typical) saves on operation expenses
• Cross-connect matrix and management function is provided on one integrated card, reducing both capital
and operational expenses
• Most tributary cards are interchangeable with the LoopStar 800/1600, reducing spare inventory
Space-Saving Design
The compact 8 RU (14" x 17.2" x 13.8") LoopStar Metro 3600 allows for ease of installation in tight rack
spaces in central office environments.
Line Card Options:
• Two card slots for management, control and cross-connect functionality. One slot for auxiliary alarm unit.
• Fourteen service interface slots for network or tributary card use: OC-192, OC-48, OC-12, OC-3, DS3,
LoopStar
DS1, 10/100, 100FX or Gig-E
• OC-3 line card options for 1, 2, 4, or 8 ports
• OC-12 line card options for 1, 2, or 4 ports
• All optical interfaces support UPSR, BLSR, or LAPS configurations
• Flexible DS1 and DS3 protection switching schemes, 1:4 for DS1 and 1:3 for DS3 or 1:1 for DS1 and
1:1 for DS3
• DS1 line card for 28 ports
• DS3 line card options for 6 or 12 ports
• Multiple Input/Output back-plane panels for DS1 and DS3 line card options (DS1 only, DS3 only, or
DS1 and DS3 combo)
• Ethernet line card options for 8 port 10/100BT, 2 port Gig-E, or a combination of 4 port 10/100 with
1 port Gig-E
• BITS and loop timing options for redundancy
