The Metropolis ADM offers multiple services for different types of network applications, and helps simplify your
network architecture and management.
®
The Metropolis ADM is designed to avoid network
overlays by combining high density PDH/SDH and
cutting-edge Ethernet interfaces into one reliable
multiservice platform. It fits onto a single 300mm deep
shelf and provides full front access. Together with its
high density cabling design, it offers a space-efficient,
easily installed, low power consumption system.
The TransLAN Cards are MEF Certified, providing
standards compliant L1/L2 Ethernet VPN functionality
that includes:
• Point-to-point LAN Transport and Point-to-multipoint
LAN Interconnect
• IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging/trunking and IEEE
802.1ad Provider Bridge VLAN tagging
By sharing hardware assets between the Universal and
Compact shelves, the cost of stocking spares is greatly
reduced. Moreover, pluggable optics (SFP/XFP) are
incorporated such that you can engineer appropriate
port reaches upon service order, avoiding over-
engineering during installation.
• Traffic engineering for DiffServ QoS with CIR/PIR rate
control (rate control, flow classification, queuing,
scheduling)
Offers seamless management integration
®
The Metropolis ADM is seamlessly managed by
Lucent Technologies Optical Management Solution.
This powerful, yet easy-to-use common network
management platform offers fast end-to-end path
provisioning, VPN provisioning, and real-time network
monitoring on all Lucent SDH and SONET equipment.
Enables efficient and reliable
next-generation data services
®
The Metropolis ADM’s incorporation of the industry
®
renowned TransLAN cards make it ideal for next-
generation network upgrades. These cards provide
innovative Ethernet technology for interconnecting end
users, ISPs, and service providers while maintaining the
reliability, interoperability and manageability of SDH
networking. Ethernet packets are mapped into SDH frames
using GFP (ITU G.7041). They are then transparently
transported across virtual concatenated VC-12s, VC-3s or
VC-4s.
Your “multiservice power platform”
®
The Metropolis ADM MultiService Mux enhances and
broadens your network’s potential. Its innovative
architecture, high-density interfaces, feature rich
application offerings, and standards-based management
options help you capture new revenue streams and
facilitate cost-effective expansion of your customer base.

The TransLAN Cards support LCAS (ITU G.7042), to
®
Together with the advanced TransLAN Card technology,
enable in-service bandwidth increases/decreases of
virtually concatenated bandwidth, promoting efficient
use of bandwidth and enhancing traffic protection
capabilities.
®
the Metropolis ADM helps increase your network's
profitability while allowing you to capitalize on ever
changing market demands.
