UFE412 Universal Front End Processor Preliminary Product Brief Product Overview This product brief describes the UFE412, the leading device in PMC-Sierra's Universal Front End 4 (UFE4) product family in terms of features, port density and performance. The UFE412 is a preconditioning co-processor for WinPath3-based Applications targeted for Wireline and Wireless Backhaul Solutions. Together, the WinPath3 and the UFE412 create a platform that enables highly integrated solutions for a range of port densities and bandwidth configurations scaling to 4xOC-3/STM-1 rate with full APS 1+1 redundancy. Benefits * * * * * Any Service, Any Port architecture for all backhaul applications High performance, fully featured solution Lowers overall system BOM cost Reduces time to market Minimizes design effort and risk Clock Recovery Highlights The UFE412 device enables the WinPath3 to efficiently support a variety of services: TDM, ATM, HDLC, PPP, and Circuit Emulation. The WinPath3 itself also supports many protocol interworking services, including CES over PSN, ATM over PSN, IP interworking (routing), ATM cell switching, IMA, ML-PPP and others. The WinPath3/UFE412 platform allows maximum flexibility and feature richness together with efficiency in cost, power and board space. * Independent Clock Recovery Per Channel (up to 336 channels) * Support for both Differential and Adaptive Clock Recovery for There are two variants of the UFE412: the UFE412-T4 is optimized for CESoP/SAToP applications, while the UFE412-M4 provides multi-protocol support. Electrical & Mechanical Product Highlights * Up to 8 Optical Line Interfaces * Fully featured Framer/Mapper for up to OC-12/STM-4 * * * * bandwidth Up to 1K channels, ranging from a single DS0 to full OC-12c/STM-4 1+1 APS protection on all ports (up to 4 working ports and 4 protection ports) Up to OC-3/STM-1 per port, for a total of OC-12/STM-4 bandwidth Requires only 2 x DDR3 devices for full bandwidth. ECC supported. Data Path Highlights * Support for CES, ATM, HDLC, POS and GFP pre-processing * Independent Protocol Machines, scalable to the full device bandwidth Integrated Framer/Mapper * Each of the 4 ports can be configured as OC-3/STM-1 or * * * * OC-12/STM-4 for a total bandwidth of OC-12/STM-4 Up to 336/252 T1/E1 or 12 E3/DS3 Alarms and Events processing via Asynchronous Host Interface Overhead Processing via Asynchronous Host interface 1+1 APS protection on all ports (up to 4 working ports and 4 protection ports) PMC-2110545, Issue 1 Copyright (c) 2011 PMC-Sierra, Inc.
