Quad 2 E1

Product Features | Overview | Technical Specifications

Narrowband Echo Cancellation Platform

Ditech Networks’ Quad 2 E1 offers the industry’s leading hybrid echo tail coverage of up to 192 ms, giving service providers guaranteed echo coverage for all types of networks: wireline, wireless, VoIP, and international. In addition to cancelling hybrid echo, unidirectionally or bidirectionally for added echo elimination, the Quad 2 E1 offers optional acoustic echo control and noise reduction. Utilizing the latest in digital signal processing technology, the Quad 2 E1’s compact design allows support for up to 2,400 voice channels per shelf.


Product Features
  • 192 ms hybrid echo tail coverage

  • Failsafe metallic bypass
  • Alarm relay for urgent/deferred facility and equipment
  • Local or remote in-service software upgrades
  • Per DS0 and per E1 provisioning
  • Easy-to-use local and remote management

Applications

Overview

High Density Echo Cancellation
The Quad 2 E1 delivers high-capacity echo cancellation while providing voice quality features that include Adaptive Noise Reduction (ANR), unidirectional Acoustic Echo Control (AEC), and network voice level controls. Other innovative features include local or remote in-service software upgrading, and Reflectometry™ for real-time characterization and performance monitoring of each channel in a network.

Reflectometry combines advanced software algorithms with powerful DSP engines to detect subtle changes in network conditions and measure and report anomalies, allowing service providers to remotely identify and proactively address voice quality problems. Remote provisioning, control, and monitoring of the Quad 2 E1 is easy and efficient with Ditech’s WinMAP™ software for terminal access and NetConsul™ EMS software for system element management.

Enterprise Solution
When installed in the 4sa Enterprise shelf, the Quad 2 E1 provides a cost-effective solution for Enterprise or Remote Office applications, providing echo cancellation for between 1 and 4 E1s in a compact, tabletop or rack-mountable, AC- or DC-powerable chassis with RJ-48, wire-wrap, or BNC connectors.

Carrier Solution
When installed in the 80sa Carrier shelf, the Quad 2 E1 provides a high-density narrowband echo cancellation solution that easily scales from 1 to 80 E1s per rack-mount shelf assembly. The 80sa Carrier shelf is available with either BNC or wire-wrap connector options and is engineered with dual redundant –48 VDC power and forced-air cooling for central office deployments. Up to 6 Carrier shelves can fit in a 2200 mm rack, for up to 480 E1s per rack.
