Core Switch (SCS) systems.
The Tellabs 5500 DCS 4608 CCS switch matrix resides in a single
shelf, with two shelves required for redundancy. A fully redundant
Tellabs 5500 DCS 4608 switch matrix, along with Administrative
Complex (AC) shelves, fits into just two bays compared to the
nine bays required for a SCS 3072 configuration. In addition, Tellabs
continues the commitment to support existing equipment in
customers networks by providing the capability to expand any
existing Tellabs 5500 SCS (256, 1024, 1536 and 3072 core sizes)
to over 4K core size with as little as one additional bay of equipment.
This capability offers significant savings in both floor space and power
consumption compared to current standard density core configurations.
