Flash programs into microcontrollers
Fujitsu Microelectronics Europe and UNIS have introduced the Flash-kit programmer, a high-speed, in-system programming solution for all Fujitsu Flash microcontroller families.
Four E1/DS1, four Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet as well as support for a telecom bus are provided as client interfaces.
The device integrates a high order and low order crossconnect, four virtual concatenation groups, and G.813 SEC/GR-1244 Stratum-3 Network Element clock timing reference generation.
Low-latency and hitless LCAS (G.7042), GFP, LAPS and PPP mapping of Ethernet frames are also supported.
AimValley's BX21 is a next-generation SDH optical access device that enables true multiservice carrier-grade access network solutions for tomorrow's converged networks.
The cost-effective terminal multiplexer integrates voice, leased line and packet transport on a compact platform.
The system is designed for customer premises access as well as metro aggregation networks and is well suited as a transport device in wireless infrastructures.
The system has the following key features: one STM-1 line interface with a pluggable SFP module, two Fast Ethernet and four E1 access interfaces and a management LAN port.
The compact design is only 19in wide and 1RU high.
An intuitive internet-browser-based user interface enables straightforward installation and maintenance of the device.
"AimValley's BX10 family is the basis to enter access applications that require high quality of service, remote management and a compact footprint".
"The ease of operation with the Internet-based management interface makes the BX21 a perfect building block for setting up reference designs for new applications", said Dirk Weinsziehr, Senior Director of Marketing at FME. Request a free brochure from Fujitsu Microelectronics Europe ...
