NPT 1800 Family – AR Router Series
Aggregation Router Optimized for High Availability
The NPT 1800 family of aggregation routers is designed for next
generation services and applications. With a fully redundant, modular
architecture and service-aware packet transport, the NPT 1800 router
family is optimized for operators requiring a high-availability multiservice
packet transport solution. There are two variants of the NPT 1800:
• NPT 1800 - supports IP/MPLS and MPLS-TP and provides coherent
routing (IPoDWDM) with a full set of optical interfaces
• NPT 1800 R - supports IP/MPLS only and does not provide IPoDWDM
NPT 1800 provides 2 Tbps switching capacity, 100G interfaces in an 8RU form factor. NPT 1800 uses Ribbon’s industry proven IP
Wave rNOS network operating system to efficiently aggregate and route services over the network, meeting their service performance
needs (SLAs) on a service-by-service basis.
With such a rich and robust feature-set, NPT 1800 is well suited for a wide variety of applications and networking scenarios, these include:
• Converged Aggregation for the Intelligent Middle Mile: Supporting 5G xHaul, broadband backhaul, business services, and TDM
migration all from a single converged platform
• 5G backhaul: with 5G specific functionality including, Class C timing, Segment Routing, EVPN, network slicing and 5G interfaces
• Aggregation for Business services: provides packet transport to meet service SLA’s on a per service basis
• TDM migration: supporting voice trunk and legacy service migration with circuit emulation services (CES) mapping a full range of
legacy TDM interface speeds onto the packet switched network (PSN)
