DATA SHEET
The Tellabs

8630 Access Switch is a compact and fully managed

IP/MPLS based router with versatile multiprotocol support. It is
designed for cost efcient delivery of connectivity and services
with Quality of Service (QoS) awareness in mobile and xed
environments.
Overview
The Tellabs

8600 Managed Edge System provides a complete network

solution composed of the Tellabs

8660 Edge Switch,

the Tellabs

8630 Access Switch, the Tellabs

8620 Access Switch, the

Tellabs

8606 Ethernet Aggregator, Tellabs

8605 Access Switch and an

advanced network management system for managing the entire network
and all of its connections and services.
The Tellabs 8630 switch is specially optimized for mobile networks, where
space is limited but reliability and modularity requirements are high. It
delivers real-time voice and video, QoS-aware data and Best Effort services
offered through a wireless or wireline infrastructure.
Features and benefits
The Tellabs 8630 switch has a hardware-based forwarding architecture that
enables high and predictable performance despite complex service
requirements. The maximum bidirectional switching capacity of a fully
equipped element is 14 Gbps.
The architecture is based on a distributed switching design and
a fully passive backplane. This provides a cost-efficient architecture with a
low entry cost even for small configurations.
The element can be equipped with a maximum of two CDC cards and four
Interface Module Concentrator (IFC) cards that contain two Interface
Modules (IFMs). Wide selection of interface modules can be used with a
mixture of protocols e.g. IP, MPLS, Ethernet, ATM, Frame Relay and TDM.
Integrated Control and DC power Card (CDC) implements management,
routing, signalling, timing and powering for the network element.
The Tellabs 8630 switch implements the latest QoS aware bandwidth
control, queuing, policing and shaping techniques, maintaining wire-speed
operation even with all premium QoS features (classification, policing,
marking, shaping) turned on.
The element supports both low-latency real-time services and data services
with tunable performance characteristics. Both ATM- and DiffServ-based
traffic management models are supported.
In addition to scalable and predictable performance, the Tellabs 8630
switch contains the latest MPLS Traffic Engineering (TE) features, including
DiffServ aware MPLS TE. This provides control of network resources for
services having very strict delay, jitter and packet loss requirements. The
performance of a connection can be tested easily since each line card has
an in-built hardware-based test generator.
The Tellabs 8630 switch has an extensive set of element- and system-level
protection functions. At the hardware level, the element supports a broad
set of carrier-class functions, such as power and control card redundancy,
distributed switching architecture and stored configuration backups of all
line cards. Both 1+1 MSP/APS and 1+1 LSP mechanisms provide fast
connection protection for selected network links or customer connections.
In addition, all cards are hot-swappable and configurations are automatically
restored from the control card after a line card replacement.
Applications
The main applications of the Tellabs 8630 switch are managed traffic
aggregation in 2G and 3G mobile networks and delivery of Ethernet and IP
VPN services.
The position of the element is typically a medium-sized aggregation or hub
site, which takes care of traffic grooming and transport in
3G and 2G networks from base stations to the RNC. With the same system,
a service provider can also implement the entire network evolution in UMTS
from R99 to R6 without any forklift upgrades (transition from ATM
connectivity to IP routing). Even GSM traffic can be groomed and
transported using the same element. In a similar way, the element can be
used in CDMA and CDMA2000 environments.
Implementation of the whole mix of MPLS pseudowire technologies enables
delivery and management of connections based on Ethernet, ATM, Frame
Relay and TDM on the same platform, with transformation to IP whenever
feasible.
In converged networks, the Tellabs 8630 switch can provide business-
critical Ethernet and IP VPN services as well as broadband service
aggregation through DSLAMs or to Multi Tenant Units (MTUs).
The Tellabs 8630 switch is designed to be economical and scalable for
large, countrywide network deployments. The design of the element and
related management system allows networks to scale from a few customers
to large national bases with hundreds of thousands of customers and
connections.
Network management
As part of the Tellabs 8600 system, the Tellabs 8630 switch is fully end-to-
end managed with the Tellabs

8000 Network Manager. All interface,

service and connection level parameters are configured remotely via the
Tellabs 8000 managers GUI based tools. This is the primary and easiest
way to configure the unit and the network.
