| BTI Photonic's Netstender 2060 Platform BTI Photonic Systems Inc. has announced the availability of its next generation Netstender 2060 platform which is expandable to 24 service slots with in-service expansion to meet requirements for economical bandwidth capacity growth for the Metro Edge and Regional markets. BTI is delivering the first truly scaleable product for the edge. The Netstender 2060 now supports an expandable architecture allowing carriers to grow from 6 to 24 service slots seamlessly and cost-effectively as broadband service penetration rates increase. The next generation 2060, featuring an expandable architecture, is fully compatible with the field population of Netstender 2060s through an in- service system processor upgrade. Currently deployed installations of BTI's Netstender 2060 are fully upgradeable (in-service) to the new expandable architecture with full investment protection. This provides customers with a growth path as their networks continue to grow, without the up front cost of competing solutions. The 2060 scales with the addition of a next generation Multi-Port System Control Processor which includes integrated OSC functionality for lower management costs. The new platform will also deliver enhanced ease-of-use by enabling auto provisioning and auto-in-service of modules via BTI's innovative photonic layer 'no-key-touch'. As part of its next generation Netstender WDM platform, BTI is introducing a wide range of new optical service modules including: high gain EDFA amplifiers, Fiber Bragg Grating Dispersion Compensation modules, wavelength conversion service packs with optical protection switching, and DWDM Multiplexers with Automated Power Management. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Networking News :: home page |
