Quick Look

The modular construction of the Kilomux is ideally suited to implement system designs according to specific applications and to provide easy upgrading. The redundant power supply and link interface options increase system reliability.

The low overhead, minimal end-to-end delay and allocated bandwidth of the Kilomux – together with voice compression – ensure quality of service while maximizing utilization of the available bandwidth.
Main link modulesMany interfaces are available on the aggregate links for compatibility with digital data services worldwide. These include V.35, V.36/V.11, RS-530, V.24/RS-232, X.21, and G.703 codirectional.

Built-in CSU/DSU, fractional E1/T1, fiber optic, ISDN terminal adapters, and TDMoIP are also available. Soft-selectable timing options from either the link or any channel are standard for all interfaces, as is support for control signals.

Standard 8-bit buffers on both the transmit and receive lines, as well as an optional onboard 256-bit satellite buffer, enable the use of any type of access media. These include leased lines, fiber, radio, microwave, and satellite links.

• The Kilomux-2100 supports a secondary link, which can be configured in several ways:
  As a backup link, which can be connected to a dial-up modem, switched digital service or ISDN basic rate line.

• As an active, secondary link with load-sharing option providing double capacity. This mode supports "priority bumping", which allows the most important channels to continue functioning in the event of a failure on either link.

• As an additional, active link, thus enabling communication with two independent Kilomux units at different sites. In this configuration, the KDI module can provide drop-and-insert and bypass capabilities between the two links.
