Significantly, ANDA is adding support for the new Provider Backbone Transport (PBT- PBB-TE) proposed standard, as well as traditional Q-in-Q and MPLS deployment options. The EtherReach 1000 series is a family of fixed Ethernet access and demarcation products sharing a common software and hardware architecture to terminate Ethernet over fiber with a mix of different 10/100, 100FX and Gigabit Ethernet interface options. ANDA said EtherReach 1000 also supports extensive VLAN and OAM functionality to enable tiered service offerings for carriers. The series features multiple encapsulation methods, policing, port/VLAN mirroring, and new quality of service features for performance management from Iomtetrix Systems. EtherReach 1000 is sampling with key carrier accounts and will be generally available in June 2007. In partnership with Iometrix Systems, ANDA's EtherReach 1000 will help further carriers OAM capabilities by supporting Iometrix's new Cnode software agent technology, which enables carriers to assess their Ethernet network's end-to-end performance for Service Level Agreements. It supports and leverages the new Ethernet OAM management specifications (802.1ag/Y.1731 compliant) and other rich software features supporting both Q-in-Q and new proposed PBT (PBB-TE) p802.1ay standards for Ethernet service deployment architectures. http://www.andanetworks.com 02-May-07 Learn How to Get Your Video on this Site Recent Packet Systems News Alcatel-Lucent Acquires OpenPlug, Extending its Application Enablement Strategy 9/1/2010 HP Launches CloudStart Services 8/30/2010 Two Minute Video: Carrier Ethernet Service Engineering 8/28/2010 SK Telecom Selects ALU's MPLS-TP Packet Optical Backhaul 8/27/2010 AFORE Debuts CloudLink Management Solution 8/25/2010 IBM Warns that Security Vulnerabilities Reach Record Levels 8/25/2010 Arista Offers Visibility into VMWare Switch Virtualization 8/24/2010 Allied Telesis Switch Cuts Power Consumption with Firmware Upgrade 8/24/2010 Juniper Releases Media Flow Engine Appliances 8/24/2010 Ericsson Selects GoAhead's OpenSAFfire 8/24/2010 VSS Monitoring Raises $20 Million for its Distributed Taps 8/24/2010 Stoke Delivers its 100th Mobile Broadband Gateway 8/23/2010 Advantech and NetLogic Partner on 40Gbps ATCA Chassis 8/23/2010 U.S. Senators Raise Security Concerns about Huawei 8/20/2010 Empirix Extends its Service Quality Assurance Testing to LTE 8/18/2010 > More news...   Search  this site   Search the Web   Get Your Column Published Emergency Response and Wireless Location Systems by Manlio Allegra Interview: NSN's Sue Spradley on LightSquared's Wholesale Mobile Data Paradigm by Sue Spradley Mobile Backhaul Transition Requires New Testing by Joe Zeto Cybersecurity Requires Public/Private Coalition by Greg Oslan A Rethinking of Cloud Services and Network Architecture by Jim Theodoras Delivering Scalable Video Solutions <br><i> Advantages of SVC-Optimized QoS</i> by Andy Singleton
