The remaining four products are interfaces that bring 10-gigabit capability to Lucent's WaveStar
Bandwidth Manager. This will enable customers to not only increase the speed of their networks, but also manage the wavelengths on which the information is traveling.
ATLAS 800 functions as DACS, ISDN access switch, T1
bandwidth manager, remote access multiplexer.
Under the agreement Lucent will supply eight sets of its WaveStar
BandWidth Manager system, WaveStar DACS SDH digital access and cross-connect system and WaveStar ADM 16/1 optical multiplexer to expand Shanghai's backbone network.
By incorporating Ascom Timeplex's
