The TE3-FALC® is a complete solution for a T3/E3 broadband interface. It includes DS3/E3 framing, analog line interface, two jitter attenuators and the mapping of ATM or PPP/HDLC. The TE3-FALC® also integrates a microcontroller which is running the device driver and gathering statistics as managed MIB objects.

On the line side the TE3-FALC® interfaces to a 75 Ω co-axial cable via transformers. Highly accurate analog pulse shaping removes the need to measure cable length and set the Line Build Out. On the system side, industry standard UTOPIA and POS-PHY interface as well as a serial clock/data port are provided. This allows the TE3-FALC® to be connected to a wide array of Layer 2/3 & 4 network processors.
