Ekinops has expanded its optical transport solution with the introduction of a line of integrated, highly scalable Layer 1, 2 and 3 Ethernet switching and routing solutions that span the network edge to the core. The products are being offered in partnership with a leading supplier of Ethernet switching and routing technology (name not disclosed).
The new solutions, all MEF (Metro Ethernet Forum) certified, offer operational simplicity. Their flexibility allows customers to choose the exact switching, routing, and transport capacity needed, as well as the necessary types, rates, and numbers of physical interfaces. Wireless Backhaul, Business Ethernet services, Carrier Ethernet, and triple or quad play are just some of the Layer 1, 2 or 3 customer applications that the switching, routing, and transport solutions address.
The Layer 2 and 3 capabilities include MPLS, VPLS, IP routing, Carrier Ethernet, and Ethernet switching. The solution set includes an integrated management capability focusing on FCAPS (Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance, Security) and end-to-end service monitoring and provisioning.http://www.ekinops.net
