OTS 4700 Shelf Controller
System Control
The OTS-4700 shelf controller provides system maintenance control for the OTS-4000 terminal sub-system. Two redundant controllers work together to monitor the health and status of the system. One OTS-4700 acts in active mode and one in standby mode. Both controllers have access to all line cards independently providing high reliability monitoring and control of the OTS-4000 sub-system.
Local Craft Interface
The OTS-4700 hosts an embedded web server enabling local or remote element management via a standard web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. No proprietary Local Craft Interface (LCI) software needs to be stored on a PC. This eliminates the logistical issues of maintaining and distributing new LCI software versions to field technicians.
The easy-to-use Graphical User Interface (GUI) allows users to provision line cards, view alarm, performance monitoring, user session and configuration logs and perform software upgrades. The user can navigate through the equipment tree directory structure and view graphical window panes with status, provisioning, performance monitoring and alarm browser details.
Network Management
The OTS-4700 acts as the network management gateway providing XML or SNMP reporting of alarms and performance information.
