New FSP 150EG-X Combines Ethernet Aggregation with Gateway Functionality for
Synchronization and Pseudowire Services
Norcross, Georgia, USA and Martinsried/Munich, Germany. April 12, 2011. ADVA
Optical Networking today announced the availability of its FSP 150EG-X edge
gateway, which delivers cost-effective capacity, scalability and resiliency for
Carrier Ethernet access and backhaul networks. The product combines scalability
with operational simplicity and enables service providers to migrate toward a
universal, Ethernet-centric network architecture below the provider edge.
The FSPÂ 150EG-X is a high-capacity, non-blocking edge gateway that provides a
central aggregation solution, acts as a timing gateway for synchronization
services and includes the termination of pseudowire services. It enables service
providers to scale their Carrier Ethernet backhaul offering to address larger
applications, while providing a manageable, cost-effective platform that is
optimized to deliver intelligent services.
"Service providers need to deliver Ethernet services that meet or exceed the
reliability and security of SONET/SDH," said Christoph Glingener, the company's
Chief Technology Officer. "With our FSP 150EG-X, we have introduced a platform
providing highest service availability, scalability and simplicity for open
access, mobile backhaul and business Ethernet applications."
The new product enables access network operators to optimize their Ethernet
backhaul networks and simplify handover at the provider edge. Incorporating the
company's Etherjack(®) technology, the FSP 150EG-X offers advanced service OAM
performance, complying with the latest standards and scaling to a large number
of monitored services. The integration of ADVA Optical Networking's
comprehensive Syncjack(TM) gateway technology for timing distribution and
delivery of SLA-based synchronization services makes the FSPÂ 150EG-X the ideal
aggregation solution for mobile backhaul applications.
When deployed in combination with the company's FSP 150CC demarcation products,
the FSP 150EG-X edge gateway delivers a consistent design model for end-to-end
Ethernet service management across the entire access and backhaul network. The
complete solution is supported by the FSP Service Manager for seamless end-to-
end provisioning and service-based network operations.
"Service providers around the world are evolving their Carrier Ethernet
networks," stated Michael Howard, principal analyst and co-founder of Infonetics
Research. "In particular, service aggregation and handover are recurring issues
that require a central aggregation solution for mobile backhaul and business
Ethernet that involves packet timing and synchronization services. ADVA Optical
Networking designed its FSP 150EG-X, Etherjack service assurance and Syncjack
timing gateway to address the need for timing and synchronization integral with
providing mission-critical business services."
