[November 04, 2009] Anda Networks Demos Ethernet Access Solutions at Cable-Tec Expo Tweet Nov 04, 2009 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Anda Networks, a developer of carrier-class fiber and copper-based access platforms for wireline networks or wireless backhaul applications, announced the introduction of its carrier-class portfolio of Ethernet access and real time monitoring solutions at the SCTE Cable-Tec Expo. Integrated with the EtherProbe real-time monitoring solution, Anda said its equipment platforms allow MSOs to non-intrusively remotely monitor and measure carrier Ethernet traffic in real time without additional test equipment or operator intervention. Anda said its EtherProbe is the first stand-alone Ethernet traffic monitoring and service level agreement (SLA) verification solution, eliminating the need for placing expensive external performance monitoring data collection tools on either end of the transmission link. According to Anda, the portfolio includes the MEF certified EtherEdge 4000 series modular Ethernet aggregation solution that enables delivery of Ethernet services over copper, fiber and wireless backhaul facilities. The EtherEdge, which can be stationed anywhere in a multi-tenant building, POP or central office, can manage traffic flows and optimize network utilization at both the ingress and egress of the base stations or POP's in real time. Anda's EtherReach 1000 and 2000 series are MEF certified single user versions of its EtherEdge 4000 series, and are designed to be located at the customer premises. The products include a family of intelligent network terminating equipment that support different WAN interfaces for either Ethernet-over-TDM (such as bonded T1/E1/DS3/E3/OCx/STMx interfaces for legacy migration) or native Ethernet-over Fiber support for standard 10/100, GigE, and 10GigE WAN interfaces to ensure maximum reach for an MSO's Ethernet service footprint at very attractive prices. All of these intelligent NTE's can either be field upgraded remotely (if already deployed) or as new greenfield equipment deployments with Anda's new EtherProbe real time performance monitoring software.
