Adax Announces High Speed ANC-OC3/STM-1 Network Controller Card for ATM.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers BERKELEY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 6, 2000 Adax, one of the leaders in signaling technology for telecom and high end datacom companies, announced its availability of its ANC-OC3/STM-1 solution for signaling used in gateways, and next generation wireless solutions, where ATM signaling will require SSCOP/SSCF software. Adax has developed the ANC-OC3/STM-1 network controller card to satisfy market demands for increasing bandwidth. The ANC-OC3/STM-1 will enable telecommunications equipment manufacturers to transfer data traffic where existing T1/E1 or T3/E3 links are of insufficient bandwidth. It has the ability to transfer data at fiber optic speeds of up to 155.5 Mbps for the lower layers (1 and 2) of the network. The product works with Adax tested and fielded SSCOP SSCOP Service Specific Connection Oriented Protocol SSCOP Service Specific Convergence Protocol (Wandel Goltermann) and SSCF SSCF Safer and Stronger Communities Fund (UK) SSCF Service Specific Coordination Function (B-ISDN/ATM) SSCF Senior Service College Fellowship (US military) for signaling applications. "Adax designed the OC3/STM-1 network controller to provide telco manufacturers with the hardware they require to keep pace with the ever increasing need for the high speed transfer of data," said Adax Inc. President Barry Zuckerman, Ph.D. "Together with the ATM-PCI/cPCI the OC3/STM-1 provides an extensible and flexible solution that can span the next generation of Intelligent Networks (IN)". The ANC-OC3/STM-1 is available with either fiber optic line termination or unshielded twisted pair See twisted pair. (hardware) unshielded twisted pair - (UTP) Normal telephone wire (in the USA). It may be used for computer to computer communications, e.g. using a version of Ethernet or localtalk. It is much cheaper than standard "full-spec" Ethernet cable. (UTP UTP (uridine triphosphate): see uracil. (Unshielded Twisted Pair) See twisted pair. UTP - unshielded twisted pair ). It is a mezzanine board which mates with the Adax ATM-PCI/cPCI protocol controllers and occupies only a single slot. The ANC-OC3/STM-1 supports multiple physical link protocols, making for a smooth migration from T1 or E1. The ANC-OC3/STM-1 is the ideal solution for transferring traffic to or from a BTS BTS - Bug Tracking System , MSC or other protocol routing or switching solution. The ANC-OC3/STM-1 provides telecommunications equipment manufacturers with an extensible and flexible solution for high speed data transfer. About Adax Adax designs, develops, and supports Wide Area Network (WAN) software and hardware solutions for telecommunications and high-value datacom customers. Adax solutions support all the major communications protocols by addressing protocol processing in the OSI model layers 1-3. These WAN connectivity solutions maximize bandwidth utilization and minimize server usage for server-based applications (wireline and wireless), such as adjunct processing, Internet/Intranet access, intelligent switching and digital media. Software/hardware solutions include HDLC (High-level Data Link Control) A data link protocol from ISO for point-to-point communications over serial links. Derived from IBM's SDLC protocol, HDLC has been the basis for numerous protocols including X.25, ISDN, T1, SS7, GSM, CDPD, PPP and others. , SS7, Frame Relay, X.25, ATM, Adax Protocol Controllers (APC (1) (American Power Conversion Corporation, West Kingston, RI, www.apcc.com) The leading manufacturer of UPS systems and surge suppressors, founded in 1981 by Rodger Dowdell, Neil Rasmussen and Emanual Landsman, three electronic power engineers who had worked at MIT. line) with T1/E1 and T3/E3 interfaces, channelized Refers to an architecture that transmits data in channels. It often refers to the 64 Kbps channels in T1 lines, which were originally developed to handle digitized voice streams (TDM). See TDM. T1/E1 Protocol Controllers (ACT line), and board-based CSU/DSUs (ANC line). Adax has a comprehensive product matrix for SS7 and Intelligent Networks that include a range of SS7 protocol controllers, network controllers, associated software, and APIs.
