Over the years, many different solutions to automating metallic cross-connects in distribution frames have been proposed, from traditional robotic solutions, relay solutions to innovative new Micro-Electro-Mechanical (MEMS) technologies.
In the NeXa system, Network Automation’s solution for automating distribution frames, this has been achieved in a unique combination of sophisticated mechanical and electronic components in combination with advanced software controls providing connectivity with the characteristics of a twisted copper pair.
The mechatronic technology chosen has proven to be superior in terms of cost as well as technical benefits to all other alternatives available today.
The NeXa system is the only commercially available Automatic Distribution Frame that can be configured from small in-building and street cabinet systems up to central office deployments.
The configurable size of a NeXa system ranges from 20 lines (40 ports) up to 160,000 lines (320,000 ports) in any-to-any, non-blocking configurations.
