| Aspen Optics Launches New Configuration Tool for SIs and ISPs Aspen Optics is launching a configuration tool for system integrators (SI) and internet service providers (ISP) to generate solutions for fiber network connection. This industry first configuration tool is capable of giving instant recommendations on how to connect fiber networks. It will revolutionize the way network engineers work, dramatically speeding up tasks that previously involve unnecessary trial and error. Network quality and cost-effectiveness is ensured with the best options for connection being generated automatically. This is a great news to SI, ISP, telecom operators, government and large enterprises that need frequent network expansion. The tool, known as "Aspen Optical Ethernet Configurator", is now available on www.aspenoptics.com and is open to public usage. Users only need to choose the switch models they wish to connect and the distance between. The configuration engine will automatically recommend the best options to connect based on customer input. For every situation, the tool will fully consider the specifications of that piece of hardware, compatibility, interoperability, transmission mode and the distance to be connected. The tool is an extremely valuable guide under multiple-vendor environment. One of the concept behind the development of the Aspen Configurator is to help network engineers to save time in design and implementation. Aspen Optics offers fiber connectivity products of high reliability, compatibility and interoperability, crucial to facilitate quality deployment. More than satisfying the customers on product level, the configuration tool is on operation level an added value to support and improve the daily working needs of SI, ISP and telcos, effectively allocating their manpower time and resources to higher value activities. Aspen Optics is a renowned supplier of fiber connectivity products. The launch of the Aspen Optical Ethernet Configurator at www.aspenoptics.com is to further enhance its service offer to its customers that include leading telecom operators and SI in the USA, Asia, Europe and The Middle East. Imagine how much valuable time is saved with this new tool from Aspen Optics. Now time can be better spent on revenue generating activities like designing the network and optimization rather than countless hours searching for hardware specification sheets. Previously, fiber connection in a network deploying devices from multiple vendors is a complicated task. Now with the configurator tool, one of the most challenging network problems is easily solved. First of its kind in the industry, it will revolutionize the way we look at optical network connection, helping the industry to speed up fiber optic expansion. As fiber connection becomes standardized with the Aspen Optical Ethernet Configurator, network reliability is enhanced. Users of the tool will be greatly impressed by the comprehensiveness of the Aspen Optics product range as it is able to match a virtually infinite combination of network connection needs. Aspen Optics's SFP, GBIC, media converters and switches assists customers to control capital spending by utilizing current switching equipment and employing cost effective ways to upgrade their networks easily and quickly. Typical network connection questions like how to connect a switch with GBIC ports to a switch with SPF ports at 10km distance, how to connect fiber network with CAT 5 copper lines, how to connect switches in a multiple vendor environment, needing 1 Gigabit, 2 Gigabit, single-mode or duplex-mode… using SFP, GBIC or media converters… these problems can now be answered with just a few clicks. As an open platform, SI, ISP and distributors can contact Aspen Optics if they wish to employ the configuration tool on their own websites too. It will become a de facto tool for network engineers to figure out network connection solutions for quick and accurate results. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Networking News :: home page |
