Description
The Multiple Rate Digital Switch (MRDX) is an
upgraded version of Zarlink's MT8980D Digital Switch
(DX). It is pin compatible with the MT8980D and
retains all of its functionality. This device is designed to
provide simultaneous connections (non-blocking) for
up to 256 64 kb/s channels or blocking connections for
up to 512 64 kb/s channels. The serial inputs and
outputs connected to MT8986 may have 32 to 128
64 kb/s channels per frame with data rates ranging
from 2048 up to 8192 kb/s. The MT8986 provides per-
channel selection between variable and constant
throughput delays allowing voice and grouped data
channels to be switched without corrupting the data
sequence integrity.

Applications
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Medium size digital switch matrices
Hyperchannel switching (e.g., ISDN H0)
MVIP™ interface functions
Serial bus control and monitoring
Centralized voice processing systems
Voice/Data multiplexer
In addition, the MT8986 can be used for switching of
32 kb/s channels in ADPCM applications. The MT8986
is ideal for medium size mixed voice and data
switching/processing applications.
