Telect Adds High-Density, Cost-Effective Platform to Comprehensive DSX-3 Product Line with New BCS 4R

LIBERTY LAKE, Wash., June 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Telect today released the new BCS 4R high-density DSX-3 system, fully configured 24- or 32-termination panels available at industry-leading pricing of just $100 per termination. The 4-inch-high panels ship as fully configured solutions, helping to streamline purchasing and installation, while at the same time decreasing overall operational expenses and lead time for turning up circuits.

To ensure that BCS 4R users are able to install and use the panels quickly, Telect is guaranteeing shipment of each panel in 10 days or less through 2010.

"Customers who choose the BCS 4R will receive the same high termination density and quality design backed by a lifetime warranty, only it will cost a lot less," said Grayling Love, Telect's product manager for the BCS 4R line. "We're confident that users will switch to the BCS 4R over more expensive panels from our competitors, and we're guaranteeing quick shipment to make the BCS 4R even more appealing."

Telect, a global provider of layer one infrastructure solutions for communications networks, developed the BCS-4R specifically to address cost-reduction efforts by service providers while still maintaining reliable DS3 connectivity capabilities between SONET equipment, multiplexers, microwave equipment, and other communications network elements. Key BCS 4R features include:

• Versatile connectivity: Pre-loaded 6-port DSX-3 modules enable access to both directions of the DS3 signal (in and out) at a single module, greatly simplifying monitoring and troubleshooting.
• Lowest price in the industry: 24-circuit panels are $2,400; 32-circuit panels are $3,200.
• Highly reliable: NEBS-certified and backed by Telect's DSX lifetime warranty.
