Not sure about 320+ ports. But I've used the Huawei MA5616 with decent
success. They've got 32 port ADSL2+ (And VDSL) line cards that give you 128
ports per chassis. POTS passthrough per card.

Don't expect any support. Pretty sure they're not intended for the US
market.

Thanks all for the input, huawei is ruled out due to politics, looks
like for costs we'll stick to the 48 ports from planet

I'd recommend avoiding the C7 - ADSL2+ 
performance on them isn't the best.   Look for 
something with a Broadcom chipset.  Even an old 
Calix B6 would be better than C7 - although the 
B6 gear is getting old, and reliability is 
sketchy.  The power converter modules on board seem to go.

For PPP and those stuff, you can rely on MikroTik. 

i.e. https://mikrotik.com/product/rb4011igs_rm @199USD you would have PPP(oE)

We have a requirement for an aged care facility to provide voice and data, we 
have the voice worked out, but data, WiFi is out of the question, so are 
looking for IP-Dslams, preferably a system that is all-in-one, or self 
contained, as in contains its own BBRAS/LNS/PPP server/Radius, such as has a 
property managment API, or even just a webpage manager where admin can add in 
new residents when they arive, or delete when they depart I know these used to 
be available  many years ago, but that vendor has like many vanished, only 
requirement is for ADSL2+, prefer units with either 48 ports or multiples of 
(192 etc) and have filtered voice out ports (telco50/rj21 etc)

If anyone knows of such units, would appreciate some details on them,  
brand/model suppliers if known, etc, we can try get out google fu back if we 
have some steering:)

Thank Y'all

Re: IP Dslams

2019-01-04 Thread Rob Pickering
Just a thought, would a two wire Ethernet extender technology (eg
Phybridge) provide you with a simpler solution?  xDSL needs a lot of
infrastructure for a low port count (& budget) application.

I have no idea if you can split the baseband out to provide POTS over the
same pair, but even if you can't, Ethernet plus a VoIP phone or ATA to each
unit may end up cheaper than a shed load of carrier oriented xDSL infra?

Yep, that's probably the one you want to look at.  I've got one on a 
shelf.  Looks like a nice box.  Pity it has no firmware on it.


It does not have POTS built in, so you'd have to generate that somehow.

 You could pair these with a pfSense appliance (or an x86 PC running the free

 As far as support goes, backup your pfsense and DLSAM configs when you finish

Are you sure you need all of that?

When I designed ADSL solutions ~15 years ago I built with Paradyne DSLAM 
with ethernet uplink, then we used rfc 1483 bridged over ATM, so no need 
for PPP, radius or anything. It was just IPoETHERNEToATM and all the 
regular IPoE mechanisms could be used (DHCP etc).


So we just bundled the DSLAM with an L3 switch and that was that. One vlan 
per customer which solved the customer isolation problem. Customer could 
run modem in either bridged mode or terminate the IPoETHoATM PVC on the RG 
itself.

You might start hunting on the used market for Occam/Calix B6 equipment,
specifically the B6-252 ADSL2+ and POTS card and the 12 slot chassis.

You'll have to put in some supporting infrastructure, but they do work
well, and I know of at least two aftermarket repair places that will repair
them for a reasonable (for the telecom world) cost.

 Is there a logical way to distribute the termination?  You might be able 
 to get better performance (not that you perhaps care, in this case) at 
 minimal additional cost if you can do building-local termination of each 
 customer circuit and then backhaul on e.g. bonded VDSL2 or G.FAST over 
 shorter distances (perhaps hopping building to building).

 I'm assuming there's no data grade copper or fiber if there's no coax. 
 Obviously if you've got those, distributed termination makes even more 
 sense.

 If you do want a centralized solution, an Adtran TA5006 (the small 
 chassis) with 6x 48 port VDSL2 combo modules (with or without vectoring, 
 depending on your needs) would do the job (though it fills the chassis 
 and doesn't allow for expansion, so the full-size TA5000 may be 
 desirable).  I've played (and am playing with) the same system but with 
 GPON termination and have been happy with it so far.

They don't have a large budget and although I'm yet to get prices on
adtran's (understandable, holidays 'n all) I doubt it will fit within their
budget, it's looking more like getting a few planet dslams and configuring
a linux box as the bng, been 10 years since I've had to do that kind of
setup, memories hazy, but I know it worked, and well, so thanks to all for
suggestions but the adtrans and nokias are not for those on shoe string
budgets, which wouldnt even allow me to include an asr1k for the bng, and
although it would allow for, I'd rather not grab an ebay 7200/7300 :)

Indstead of using a  Vega 3050 for voice I would just get a DSLAM with a
Combo card, and be done with it. VDSL2+ ports plus SIP FXS all on the same
card. With that you get metalic testing which would be good for your
situation.

How many units are you talking about? Do you have access to Coaxial cable?

If you're wanting to buy used gear, ADSL2+ DSLAMs are indeed probably 
cheaper, but you might have trouble finding native IP/Ethernet ones.  A 
lot of the older stuff predating the VDSL era was very ATM-centric.


I'm not sure anyone's still really making ADSL2+-only DSLAMs, so I'm not 
sure a 1:1 cost comparison is even possible on new gear.


Note that most VDSL/VSDL2 DSLAMs do support ADSL2/ADSL2+ fallback, so 
you're not stuck with VDSL if you do have a problematic link, and you've 
got a bit more future-proofing.  You can also get G.FAST DSLAMs with 
VDSL and ADSL2 fallback if you wanted to really have some future-proofing.


800m is probably pushing it for G.FAST, but VDSL2 should run on that 
just fine even on crummy old voice-grade copper.  Depending on how it's 
bundled, you might not be able to use every pair in a cable for VDSL2, 
but if you're putting POTS on a separate pair, that means half your 
pairs right there are not running DSL at all.  Again, with most VDSL 
DSLAMs, you've got the option of ADSL2 fallback if you do need it on the 
long-distance links.


ADSL2 does have the advantage that you can (probably) run POTS+DSL on 
the same pair if you need to.  I'm not sure that's possible with VDSL, 
but I'd love someone to prove me wrong.

Carl,

What did you select to replace your MX BNG?

To Nick, we use Adtran Total Access 5000's today. They work fine, but if I
was doing a new install I would do Calix with their newer lines that have
SDN BNG functions. Calix just has better CPE to go along with it, but they
are just G.Fast and ethernet only CPE's.

Why only ADSL2+?

What are you doing for voice?

Do you have access to Coax cable? If so I would do a small 32x10 CMTS with
cable modem. Much cheaper and future proof.

I'd consider breaking down the two functions.
Set up your customer connections using ADSL Ethernet, etc and put each unit
in the building on its own CVLAN.  This should never change even when the
subscribers in the unit change.  This way you can configure it once and
never touch it again.  I'd use Calix G.fast but I have no idea what your
budget/wiring looks like and I'm not sure where their e3-48 and E5-48 are
in general availability.

Then hand the SVLAN with all the CVLANs off to the BNG and authenticate the
circuits using IPoE.  Waystream has an ASR6000 switch with BNG
functionalities (I've never used it, just came across it when looking for
other options to replace my MX BNG.

+1 for Adtran TA5000 .. we use them, my former employer uses them with great 
success.  There’s also the Calix series of gear that is quite good too …

Howdy,
We have a requirement for an aged care facility to provide voice and data, we 
have the voice worked out, but data, WiFi is out of the question, so are 
looking for IP-Dslams, preferably a system that is all-in-one, or self 
contained, as in contains its own BBRAS/LNS/PPP server/Radius, such as has a 
property managment API, or even just a webpage manager where admin can add in 
new residents when they arive, or delete when they depart I know these used to 
be available  many years ago, but that vendor has like many vanished, only 
requirement is for ADSL2+, prefer units with either 48 ports or multiples of 
(192 etc) and have filtered voice out ports (telco50/rj21 etc)
If anyone knows of such units, would appreciate some details on them,  
brand/model suppliers if known, etc, we can try get out google fu back if we 
have some steering:)
Thank Y'all

Any old Nokia DSLAMs gathering dust?

2010-03-17 Thread Michael Sokolov
Hello NANOGers,

I wonder, would anyone here happen to have an unused Nokia / Diamond
Lane Speedlink DSLAM chassis that's laying around gathering dust and
which you wouldn't mind donating to an open source xDSL CPE project?

Just wondering if anyone here might perchance have one they are trying
to get rid of - after all, one man's garbage is another man's
treasure...

IP DSLAMs

2009-02-17 Thread Church, Charles
All,
 
Looking for a recommendation on DSLAMs to replace our unsupported
Cisco 6015s.  Requirements are:
 
G.SHDSL 2 and 4 wire mode (CPEs are strictly Cisco 828, 878, and small
cisco routers using WIC-1SHDSL and the V2/V3 of them)
QOS would be nice, not a necessity
SNMPv3 and SSHv2 support
IPv6 support now or in a future upgrade
Doesn't need to actually route, but if it can bridge one or more
downstream CPEs into an ethernet dot1q VLAN on an uplink, that'll work
Don't want ATM uplinks, ethernet only, dual uplinks preferred
Looking for port density ranging from 15 to about 100 in a chassis
Power can be DC, but AC is greatly preferred
 
Off-list responses appreciated, since this is kind of OT.  These are for
large campus environments where some remote buildings are maybe a mile
or two from a campus-owned telecom shack, with only copper connectivity
to said building.  No POTS is required over the DSL links, the copper
pairs are dedicated.
 
Thanks,
 
Chuck
