As next-generation Ethernet services begin to extend out from the metro network they will drive demand for versatile, cost-effective aggregation out at the network edge. The blurring of aggregation and transport networks occurs as WDM, OTN, SONET, ROADMs, MPLS-TP and other high performance optical services enhance Ethernet aggregation solutions. This creates a high-performance aggregation platform that will stem the surge of new services aggregation requirements.

• Simplified aggregation of all residential, business and backhaul access services
• Increases services scalability, improves time to market
• Supports multi-service, multicustomer premium SLAs
• Reduces service down-time and MTTR
• Increases network flexibility, minimizes dark fiber utilization
• Lowers cost per new service installation
