RAD Data Communications now has the technology to enable carrier Ethernet to replace TDM/SDH in the access.
“We are confident that the enhancements we are introducing in our EtherAccess feature set for carrier Ethernet solutions will assure carriers and mobile transport operators that the access segment of the packet access and backhaul network is as reliable as TDM/SDH,” said RAD director Yacov Cazes.
Cazes refers to versatile timing over packet capabilities, hardware-based Ethernet operations and maintenance, performance measurement and traffic management as well as support for G.8032 ring protection.
“The intelligence and processing power we have incorporated in our Ethernet access devices eliminate a major stumbling block to high capacity service delivery for business and mobile applications, particularly high-speed packet access and long-term evolution,” he added.
