Reduced CAPEX by
avoiding overlays
Converging voice and data traffic
on a single platform supports multi-
service transport over existing
SDH networks. Leveraging existing
invest ments in network assets avoids
the cost and complexity of building
overlay networks.
The Alcatel-Lucent 1655 AMU
combines traditional SDH, or circuit-
based, and Ethernet, or packet-based,
applications. Four shelf versions are
offered, two rack-mounted versions
for CO and CPE applications and
two street-cabinet versions.
Scalable access for
business customers
Developed specifically to serve
business customers, the Alcatel-
Lucent 1655 AMU suits several
applications:
• Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) at
customer premises equipment
(CPE)
• Local loop access: fiber to the
business (FTTB)
• LAN and Private Branch
Exchange (PBX) interconnection
• Interoffice applications
New revenue-generating
services
The Alcatel-Lucent 1655 AMU cost
effectively delivers a growing array
of high-performance, high-speed
communications services to busi-
nesses. A wide selection of interfaces
support a flexible mix of circuit and
data traffic, more easily meeting
customer demands for LAN inter-
connection, Internet access, voice
services and the latest, high-value
multimedia offerings.
