Understanding Adtran MX2800 Redundancy

The Adtran MX2800 is a multiplexer unit designed for combining T1/E1 signals into a T3 or DS3 line. Combining 28 T1 lines into a single T3 makes the MX2800 into an important backbone piece for your network. The last thing a business can afford to have happen is to lose power or connection to their multiplexer.

Luckily, Adtran thought this through when they were designing the Adtran MX2800. The MX2800 features built in redundancy at both the power level and the multiplexer level. What this means is that your MX2800 is that much more resilient and can maintain uptime for longer periods of time than the competition.

How does the Adtran MX2800 maintain its uptime?

By combining two hot swappable power supplies into a single chassis, the MX2800 can ensure at least one power supply is sending power to the unit at any given time. And with an alarm that sounds if one power supply fails, the MX2800 can stay running on the single power supply until a replacement, second redundant power supply can be sourced.

The MX2800 maintains redundancy on the multiplexing side by duplicating the first card’s settings and mirroring them onto the second card in the chassis. Thus, should the first card ever go down, the second card will step right up in its place and begin to send out the same signals to the DS3 line as did the previous card.

As you can see, the Adtran MX2800 is a serious piece of equipment built for extreme reliability. It makes a solid addition to any high bandwidth scenarios where you wish to combine DS1/T1/E1 lines together.
