Print E-mail

The Metrodata FM4500 DSU is used as a drop/insert multiplexer to mix voice and data traffic on a single E1 2.048 Mbps link. The FM4500 provides a fractional E1 n*64Kbps drop port for the PABX equipment, and remaining E1 service bandwidth may be allocated to the four X.21 or V.35 ports to carry traffic to or from bridges or routers.



The FM4500 can be used at either end of the Wide Area link. Error conditions and usage statistics are gathered and stored by the FM4500. Unit set-up is done via a comprehensive menu system which is accessed via a local or remote terminal.

The optional Metrodata LM1100 SNMP Enabler permits management via a LAN using an SNMP system.
