Tejas Networks Participates in Carrier Ethernet World APAC, Singapore
Demos Ethernet Ring Protection Switching at the Interop Event
Singapore, Nov 13, 2008 – Tejas Networks, a leading enabler of high-performance transmission infrastructure, announced its participation at the Carrier Ethernet World Asia Pacific (CEW APAC). As part of the participation Tejas is demonstrating end-to-end Carrier Ethernet Service delivery over a PBB/PBB-TE Aggregation Network at the Multi-vendor Interop organized by the European Advanced Networking Test Center (EANTC). The Tejas solutions showcased are part of the new range of Carrier Ethernet products it launched last quarter at CEWC, Berlin.
The TJ2000 are the new series of Carrier Ethernet Products launched earlier by Tejas Networks which are designed for use in the access/metro network. These equipment enable highly-scalable Ethernet networks through the adoption of PBB/PBB-TE. The TJ2000 series is capable of catering to a wide range of application segments ranging from Residential Triple-Play Services (DSL-based Broadband, IPTV), Mobile Backhaul and Enterprise Services (Point-to-Point & Multipoint Ethernet Services).
Sanjay Nayak, CEO Tejas Networks said “We are delighted at the response we’ve witnessed to the introduction of the TJ2000 series of products. We are excited to be at the forefront of technology and intend to demonstrate this during the Interop testing being conducted at the event.”
Celcom, Malaysia, the wireless division of Telecom Malaysia International has been evaluating these products. “We evaluated Tejas' TJ2030 & TJ2050 Carrier Ethernet platforms and were pleased with the specific performance parameters of Multipoint ELAN services over PBB with 50ms Ethernet Ring Protection Switching adhering to the latest ITU-T standards (G.8032). In addition we also tested Traffic Engineered E-Line Service over PBB-TE. We believe that Carrier Ethernet is a very promising technology and will certainly be considering supporting Carrier Ethernet on our network in the future", said Ronhazli Adam, Senior Manager, Celcom
The Carrier Ethernet World Asia Pacific is taking place at the Concorde Hotel, Orchard Road, Singapore between 12th-14th November 2008.
