www.adc.com • +1-952-938-8080 • 1-800-366-3891 SPEC SHEET Soneplex ® Quad Loop Extender Module (QLX) The QLX module is a fiber loop converter that provides cost-effective, reliable transmission of 4 DS1 signals, utilizing 6 Mbps optical DS2 transport, up to 20 miles. It converts four multiplexed DS1 signals into an optical DS2 for delivery over single-mode optical fibers. The optical DS2 is converted back to four DS1s at the customer premises. The QLX utilizes two fibers, with either an FC or SC type connector, and can operate in protected or non-protected modes. Non-protected mode requires one QLX module per four DS1s installed in the Soneplex Loop Extender Chassis at the central office, and one QLX module at the remote end. Protected mode requires two QLX modules at each end of the circuit and is selectable by software for either line or path protection. Integrated network management enables extensive alarms and diagnostic capabilities. At the central office, the QLX module can be used in an ADC Soneplex Loop Extender chassis or in an industry-standard 3192 repeater shelf with an optional adapter board. At the customer premises, the QLX module fits into either a two or four position remote chassis available from ADC. Features • 1310 nm optical laser transports signal up to 20 miles • Optional line and path protection with the CPM module • Remote loopback of individual DS1 circuits • Software selectable AMI and B8ZS line codes • Central office and remote alarm capability • Fits into ADC Soneplex Loop Extender chassis and industry-standard 3192 repeater shelf with an adapter board The Soneplex Quad Loop Extender (QLX) module is part of ADC’s cost-effective solution for T1-based service delivery. The Soneplex platform supports DS1 network interfaces on either copper or fiber using HDSL, HDSL2, HDSL4, traditional T1 repeater or optical DS2 technology in a single platform. Integrated network management lets carriers save on overall operations costs through the entire system lifecycle.
