The 1645 AMC supports cost-
efficient and reliable transport of
TDM and Ethernet services in the
metro access. Figure 1 shows the
1645 AMC and the Alcatel-Lucent
1643 Access Multiplexer Small (AMS)
platforms working together to support
a typical metro-access application,
with the 1645 AMC providing STM-4
transport and the 1643 AMS
supporting STM-1 transport for
multiservice traffic.
