Network Termination Unit STU4

The STU4 is an Ethernet Network Termination Unit


for the ULAF+ SHDSL product family designed to
transmit broadband traffic over multiple copper
wire-pairs.

The STU4 helps network operators bridging the


existing bandwith gap between E1 and E3/STM1
services by bundling up to 4 E1 channels, over
legacy SDH/TDM networks. In campus back-to-back
applications, the STU4 transmits up to 22,8 Mbit/s.
