Pictures of AT&T's Boston Multiple Switching Center

»www.thebostonchannel.com/slidesh···ail.html

Found this while I was browsing the local news website. It appears to be pictures of a core switching center. The captions are a little crappy, and seem to mostly push AT&T's future 4g service, but the photos are still cool.

Should be called "MSC" or "Mobile Switching Center". Essentially in a cellular network ALL the cell sites are connected by fiber/T1 back to a controller/switch, this is it for the Boston area. Looks like Ericsson/ALU/Nortel and Ericsson MSCs. Good stuff!

There are also recent pics of Verizon's MSC in Orlando which was given to journalists during a CTIA tour. Google for it...

Wait, are you telling me the facility pictured doesn't handle 21 billion calls per day?

The captions are crappy because many of them are not relevant to the specific equipment shown in the picture.

Exactly what I was thinking. Either didn't or couldn't get the details we would like to know.

Can you give us a hint on what to search for? "Verizon's MSC in Orlando tour" and similar searches just find this thread.
