Orion 4500TM
The dual-port Orion 4500 provides a single
T3/E3 CSU/DSU Access Multiplexer
platform with software-selectable line speeds
for linking high-speed applications across a
T3 or E3 line. It is ideal for Internet backbones,
scalable fractional T3/E3 Internet access ser-
vices, and other high-speed WAN connec-
tions.
The Orion 4500 splits the T3/E3 bandwidth
between two high-speed serial ports config-
urable in multiples of 3.158 Mbps (T3), 3.759 SPECIFICATIONS
Mbps (E3 G.751), or 3.072 Mbps (E3 G.832). Power
For full payload line bandwidth, one port can AC 100 to 240 V AC RMS; 50 to 60 Hz; 20 watts
also be used in clear-channel or unframed DC -40 to –56 (nominal –48) V DC; 280 to 420 mA; 16.8 watts (special order)

Typical Application II
The Orion 4500 reduces network complexity and operating costs while increasing the reliability of high-speed full and subrate T3/E3 service delivery.
As a dual-port demarcation point between the network and customer premises, it increases the visibility of critical high-speed networks and saves
the cost of implementing dual devices to support multiple data sources.
