The ENX-F is a smart and versatile access network device for Ethernet access links and expanded services, such reducing operating expenses and improving margins. It offers SyncE and Precision Time Protocol (PTP; IEEE1588) support to expand provider’s clock-domain till the end-customer.
Its functions cover current and future access network requirements and it enables efficient solutions through easy configuration, test and monitoring interfaces.
ENX-F implements a fully managed demarcation function between customer network and service provider network. It monitors end-to-end connectivity and SLAs via its integrated test functionality.
ENX-F can derive SyncE from all ports and fulfils ITU requirements for jitter, wander and hold-over. For IEEE1588 it can operate as Boundary Clock (BC) and Ordinary Clock (OC). It provides accurate distribution of the PTP protocol across multi-port networks. As boundary clock it may be slaved to a master on one port and act as master on all other ports.
ENX-F offers independent interface and service control.
It incorporates Ethernet operations management according to Y.1731 (OAM functions), 802.1ag and 802.3ah (EFM), configuration management via HTML browser, via SNMP and SSH.
