Ethernet Over SDH

Ethernet over SDH
Multi-Service Platform
Ability to handle SDH, PDH, SAN,Ethernet & WDM on a common platform for efficient presentation, switching, aggregation & transport over NG-SDH
Highly flexible 2M STM64 TDM interfaces Full non-blocking VC-12 Switching 20G (128x128STM-1)- 60G (384x384 x STM-1) Flexible Any port in Any slot type Architecture Data bus enables the SMA16-64 as data centric hub Highest Port density to reduce costs Use of SFP technology to increase flexibility and reduce costs
Legacy TDM Services Storage Area Network Ethernet Leased Line Optical Network Internet Access Single MSP Platform
Virtual Private LAN
Flexible Mapping Benefits

LCAS (Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme) Variation of the link capacity in units of VC12, VC3 or VC4, as appropriate Ability to re-use protection bandwidth GFP (Generic Framing Procedure) Support for multiple protocol traffic Standardisation provides component cost savings
Virtual concatenation Allows more granularity for network efficiency Delivers Ethernet services flexibly without the need to upgrade intermediate nodes Diverse routing means more efficient use of bandwidth

L2 Aggregation Card
Provides point-to-multipoint functionality
Acts as hub or switch for PacketSpan customer located products

Introduces new services when the market is ready Provides functionality from the core, not from every box in the deployment - lowers cost throughout, especially when upgrades are needed Dramatically reduces the cost of interfaces on SDH & data side Single tributary card much cheaper than overlay equipment, no new training/personnel or NMS needed
Standard GFP, Virtual Concatenation (with LCAS and HO/LO SDH support) QoS options (committed rate, best effort etc) allowing differentiated & prioritised services
