This Carrier Class 19” Rack-Mountable platform is a modular multiple-channel 10/100/155/1000Mbps) Media Access Concentrator providing up to 48 conversion channels, housed in a 3U chassis, yielding an unprecedented density factor of 16/U. It features altogether 16 slots: 3 for power supplies, 1 for the management module and 12 for conversion modules (up to 4 user interfaces each). All modules, controls, connectors and indicators are located on the front panel for easy and space saving installation (including in dual back-to-back built cabinets). Its light weight allows installation by a single technician. The MetroStar comes equipped with dual load sharing power supplies while an additional slot allows the insertion of a third redundant power supply, increasing MTBF.

All modules are hot swappable. Even the cooling fans- integrated in the modular PS rather than fixed in the chassis, are hot swappable. All these result in record high MTBF and virtually zero MTTR.

Most of the modules are equipped with FibroLAN’s MA™ technology, which allows low cost management of the remote link partners. SNMP management is provided either by a single management module or by a combination of Master and Slave modules which allow the stacking of up to 8 devices, providing full management of hundreds of users by a single SNMP agent. The optional cable organizer facilitates neat and safe deployment even in the densest configurations.

All these features make MetroStar the  industry’s most efficient Access Concentrator for FTTx and large enterprise networks.
