Controller Card 1:1 Redundancy
The MX2810 supports two hot-swappable controller cards which
provide 1:1 redundancy for the T1 and T3 signals. With two cards
installed, the MX2810 can recover from circuit failure. See Circuit
Redundancy on page 7-1 for more information.
T3 OVERVIEW
A T3 provides the same bandwidth as 28 T1s. Typically, leasing a T3
line costs the same as eight to ten T1s. Using the MX2810, a single
T3 can provide internet connectivity and voice (local and long
distance) to individual sites across up to 28 individual DSX-1s. T3 is
also extremely cost effective for backhauling local and long
distance voice.
SNMP
The MX2810's embedded SNMP feature allows the unit to be
accessed and controlled by a network manager through the
