Zhone Introduces Line-Powered DSLAM

Zhone Technologies introduced a line powered DSLAM that enables carriers to extend ADSL services up to 38,000 feet from a central office using power supplied over the uplink’s twisted pair. Zhone’s compact Raptor 100 LP provides support for central office, remote terminal and non-powered wiring cabinet deployments. It is offered in a range of environmentally hardened shelf sizes including 7U, 3U and 1U, with a variety of line interfaces and uplinks from 10/100baseT to DS1 IMA and OC-12. http://www.zhone.com
