About This Part
The Lucent UN395B, identified as Part Number UN395B, is a critical packet interface module designed for integration within the Lucent 5ESS digital switching system. As a key component of the 5ESS product family, this card typically assumes a modular, hot-swappable form factor, enabling seamless installation and maintenance within the switch chassis. Its primary function is to facilitate the handling and routing of packet-based data traffic, acting as a bridge between the traditional TDM architecture of the 5ESS and modern packet networks. The "2CKT" designation indicates its capability to manage two independent circuits, allowing for efficient aggregation or segregation of data streams. While specific data rates can vary based on configuration, these interfaces are engineered to support various protocols such as IP, ATM, or Frame Relay, crucial for delivering data services over legacy infrastructure. This module is instrumental in enabling the 5ESS to process and switch non-voice traffic, extending the system's utility beyond pure circuit-switched voice. The Lucent UN395B is predominantly deployed within the central office environments of major telecommunication operators, specifically integrated into the Lucent 5ESS digital switch. These switches form the backbone of many incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs) and national telecom providers globally, handling a vast array of voice and data services. This packet interface card supports the modernization of existing network platforms by allowing the 5ESS to interface with newer packet-switched networks, thereby enabling services like DSL backhaul, IP-based VPNs, or ATM PVCs. It addresses the challenge of evolving data demands within a TDM-centric core, providing a cost-effective solution for operators to introduce or expand packet data capabilities without a complete rip-and-replace of their established infrastructure. The UN395B effectively upgrades the 5ESS's capacity to manage diverse traffic types, ensuring continued service delivery and network relevance.
