CHAPTER 1 System Introduction This chapter describes the system features, specifications and applications of the IES. 1.1 System Description The IES is an IP-based DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) that connects subscribers to the Internet. As a high-performance yet compact platform, it conveniently gives telephone companies and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) the ability to deliver broadband Internet access and voice services to subscribers. The IES platform allows for convenient management and support of various technologies. The IES-5106M can hold a maximum of five line cards, so up to 240 subscribers (360 when using the ALC1272 72-port line card) can simultaneously utilize a wide range of powerful broadband services. The IES-5112M can hold a maximum of ten line cards, so up to 480 subscribers (720 when using the ALC1272 72-port line card) can simultaneously utilize a wide range of powerful broadband services. The IES-6000M can hold a maximum of sixteen line cards, so up to 768 subscribers (1152 when using the ALC1272 72-port line card) can simultaneously utilize a wide range of powerful broadband services. Additionally, the line cards are hot-swappable; thus, you do not need to interrupt the service of other cards to change or service an individual card. A single management switch card can provide the convenience of centralized network traffic supervision. The IES also has dual, hot-swappable power modules that reduce the chance of system shutdown.

System Introduction
This chapter describes the system features, specifications and applications of the
IES.
1.1
System Description
The IES is an IP-based DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) that
connects subscribers to the Internet. As a high-performance yet compact
platform, it conveniently gives telephone companies and Internet Service
Providers (ISPs) the ability to deliver broadband Internet access and voice
services to subscribers. The IES platform allows for convenient management and
support of various technologies.
The IES-5106M can hold a maximum of five line cards, so up to 240 subscribers
(360 when using the ALC1272 72-port line card) can simultaneously utilize a wide
range of powerful broadband services.
The IES-5112M can hold a maximum of ten line cards, so up to 480 subscribers
(720 when using the ALC1272 72-port line card) can simultaneously utilize a wide
range of powerful broadband services.
The IES-6000M can hold a maximum of sixteen line cards, so up to 768
subscribers (1152 when using the ALC1272 72-port line card) can simultaneously
utilize a wide range of powerful broadband services.
Additionally, the line cards are hot-swappable; thus, you do not need to interrupt
the service of other cards to change or service an individual card. A single
management switch card can provide the convenience of centralized network
traffic supervision.
The IES also has dual, hot-swappable power modules that reduce the chance of
system shutdown.
