1)
It is the customer's responsibility to provide sufficient airflow around each of the components to keep them within the
allowed temperature range.

MTBF
The following MTBF (Mean Time Before Failure) values were calculated using a combination of
manufacturer’s test data, if the data was available, and the Telcordia (Bellcore) issue 2 calculation for the
remaining parts. The Telcordia calculation used is “Method 1 Case 3” in a ground benign, controlled
environment (GB,GC). This particular method takes into account varying temperature and stress data and
the system is assumed to have not been burned in. Figure 1 below shows MTBF de-rating for the E1
temperature range in an office or telecommunications environment. Other environmental stresses
(extreme altitude, vibration, salt water exposure etc.) lower MTBF values.
