360-80 Intelligent Channel Bank (ICB)
Extensive Service Offerings
The 360-80 ICB universal enclosure houses up to 4 channel modules (2 full-size, 2 half-size). Channel module selection includes both voice and data interfaces and fulfills requirements for FXS/DPO, FXO/DPT, E&M, OCU, DSU, 64XN, ISDN and Ethernet Networking. The half-size slots accommodate a T1 or E1 controller module and either a secondary controller card, HSDL Adaptor or one half-size channel module.

 Real Estate Savings
The 360-80 has integrated common hardware in a very compact 1.75"x17"x12" profile. This handy box can be wall or rack mounted by simply rotating the mounting ears. Its small frame takes up only one rack unit when mounted in a 19" or 23" rack. The unit is temperature hardened, allowing outdoor applications.
 
Intelligent Control
 Remote monitoring is a snap with the 360-80 ICB. The unit can supply maintenance information, card specifics and card settings. Remote provisioning allows card settings to be changed with handy drop-down menus on your PC or using SNMP. Real time alarms do not go unnoticed because the alarms displayed on your PC duplicate the LED alarm, system status and line status information of the ICB.  SNMP management provides trap support for alarm indications.

 Replacement for Legacy Channel Banks
Save valuable rack space by replacing old channel banks quickly and easily with the 360-80 ICB

 Revenue Generating
A need for fractional T1/E1 is not a problem with this streamlined ICB. Groomed timeslots for fractional T1/E1 allow for split services of voice and data to multiple locations. 2-way drop and insert capabilities generate additional revenue opportunities.

 High Reliability
 The 360-80 ICB is not dependent on a separate power supply. Power is distributed on the channel modules, eliminating the possibility of a single point of failure. This also eliminates down time if service or maintenance is required. 1:1 protection of controller modules is also available. All cards are hot-swappable for uninterruptible service during maintenance.
