Huawei OptiX OSN 550

The Huawei OptiX OSN 550 is a packet and TDM-oriented next-generation multi-service optical transmission system positioned at the access layer of end-to-end Hybrid MSTP networks. It delivers large capacity, high availability, low power consumption, and a compact structure — making it an ideal choice for enterprises and telecoms across the UAE.

 

Description

The Huawei OptiX OSN 550 UAE is next-generation optical transmission equipment that adopts a TDM and packet dual-domain architecture and supports a variety of service access modes. It applies to the access layer of metropolitan area networks and local transmission networks to access services over VIP private lines and from wireless base stations.

Furthermore, the OSN 550 supports service bearing in both the TDM domain and the packet domain. With dual-domain networking, it achieves smooth evolution from the TDM network to the packet switching network. This makes it a future-ready investment for telecom operators and enterprises across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah.

Beyond that, the OptiX OSN 550 supports MPLS, MPLS-TP, PWE3, Ethernet, ATM, WDM, SDH, and PDH technologies — enabling pure TDM, pure PTN, or hybrid network deployments. As a result, UAE network teams gain the flexibility to build and evolve their infrastructure without replacing existing equipment.

In addition, the OSN 550 provides a planning tool for packet transport networks, enabling end-to-end visible service configuration and instrument-free site deployment. It also supports automatic fault locating and performance monitoring of packet services.

Key Features:

  • Large Switching Capacity — To begin with, it supports up to 64 Gbit/s packet switching capacity and up to 20 Gbit/s SDH cross-connect capacity
  • Dual-Domain Architecture — Moreover, it handles both TDM and packet services on a single platform for seamless network evolution
  • Compact 2U Chassis — In addition, it fits in a compact 2U height chassis with 8 service slots and supports interfaces from 2 Mbit/s to 10 Gbit/s
  • Multi-Protocol Support — Furthermore, Huawei OptiX OSN 550 UAE supports MPLS, MPLS-TP, Ethernet, SDH, PDH, ATM, and WDM technologies
  • High Availability — It includes 1+1 equipment-level protection for the power supply board and system control, switching, and timing board
  • Flexible Installation — It supports flexible installation in racks, cabinets, walls, desks, or poles with AC or DC power supply
  • Care-Free Maintenance — Alongside this, TP-assist enables end-to-end visible service configuration and instrument-free site deployment
  • Ideal for Base Station Backhaul — Finally, it meets 2G, 3G, and LTE base station backhaul demands across UAE telecom networks
