Avvio Announces the AM2554 Protocol Independent Repeater Module

Avvio Networks has announced availability of its 8 port AM2554 multi-protocol multi-rate regenerator. The AM2554 is the latest member of the A2050/A2500 family of optical data transport modules. Its protocol independent architecture enables service providers to provision any protocol on any port, and it supports any combination of protocols on a single module. Supported protocols include 100Mb Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, OC-3 to OC-48 (with or without FEC) along with many other protocols.

The AM2554 is configured with software commands through its CLI, Telnet, or SNMP interfaces. Up to 40 ports can be configured any port to any port for use with any protocol in an Avvio Networks' A2050 2U chassis.

An AM2554 can be configured for automatic protection switching (APS), multicast or broadcast operation, or as multiple 1:1 repeaters. It uses industry-standard, user-accessible SFPs, including C/DWDM allowing field upgrades and re-configuration. The AM2554 occupies a single slot in Avvio Networks' A2050 Chassis and can be used with our family of optical add/drop multiplexers and EDFAs for a complete end-to-end solution.
