Converting X.25, HDLC LAPB or Bisync to TCP/IP

Latest News

Alcatel-Lucent Shanghai Bell has approved Advanced Relay's LayGO® PXSu as interface for their BSC/PC X.25 terminal, used to control Alcatel-Lucent's cellular Base Station Controller.

Advanced Relay develops products and solutions to exchange synchronous interfaces (RS-232/422, V.35) for Ethernet and synchronous protocols (X.25, LAPB, LAPD, RDIF, HDLC or BSC) for TCP/IP. Higher layer file transfer protocols for telecom phone switches, such as FTAM, AFT, XFER or AMATPS are replaced with FTP or SFTP.

The primary reasons for converting X.25 to TCP/IP are:

• Mounting maintenance costs for X.25 connections and equipment
• No documentation or onsite know-how about X.25 and equipment
• High costs and low speed or discontinuance of X.25 networks
• Internet connections are faster, cheaper, already available or easy to get

Recommendation: PXSe gateway at legacy system exchanging X.25 for TCP/IP

XOT is outdated; it continues using the X.25 protocol, albeit over TCP/IP
