RSS sonetA Modular Gigabit Ethernet Backbone for NEPTUNE and Other Ocean Observatories
White Paper Recently, Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) technology has successfully competed with SONET and other legacy alternatives such as ATM and Frame Relay for Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) and Wide Area Network (WAN) implementations. [18 Jul 2008]
Joint Source-Channel Multistream Coding and Optical Network Adapter Design for Video Over IP
White Paper The paper consists of three equally weighted subtopics which cover some novel thoughts in designing and implementing the video over IP system in the different areas, namely, a Synchronous Optical NETwork (SONET) network adapter for backbone... [18 Jul 2008]
A CSMA/CP MAC Protocols for IP Over WDM Metropolitan Area Ring Networks
White Paper To solve the explosively growth of the Internet demands, Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN) use SONET to provide huge bandwidth. However, the SONET network is suitable for Constant Bit Rate (CBR) traffic. [11 Jul 2008]
Cass Cable TV, Inc., Deploys the MSP-10GE for Data and Video Transport
White Paper The options were to expand the existing SONET infrastructure or transition to a next generation packet-centric transport platform with bandwidth efficient support for all the services. Cass Cable TV, Inc.needed to extend its service offering of... [11 Jul 2008]
Dynamic Bandwidth Adaptation in NG SDH/WDM Transport Networks Using LCAS
White Paper This paper adopts dynamic bandwidth adaptation to transport networks, using new features of next generation SDH/SONET known as Virtual Concatenation (VCAT) and Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme (LCAS), which can flexibly provision subwavelength... [11 Jul 2008]
The Metro Ethernet Network: Comparison to Legacy SONET/SDH MANs for Metro Data Service Providers
White Paper This paper focuses on the results of a study commissioned by the MEF to quantify how Ethernet-over-fiber and next-generation SONET/SDH-based architectures afford the operational simplicity, data transport efficiency, and scalability required to... [10 Jul 2008]
A Reconfigurable Ethernet/SONET Circuit-Based Metro Network Architecture
White Paper This paper proposes a service concept in which high-speed Ethernet interfaces from end hosts are dynamically cross-connected to equivalent-rate Ethernet-over-SONET (EoS) optical circuits for transport across metro-area networks and/or wide-area... [10 Jul 2008]
Understanding Ethernet Over SONET Services Over a Multiservice SONET/SDH Provisioning Platform (MSPP)
White Paper This paper discusses the merits of deploying Ethernet over a Multiservice SONET/SDH Provisioning Platform (MSPP), as well as some of the technical breakthroughs that will aid in Ethernet over SONET/SDH (EOS) deployment. [10 Jul 2008]
The Economics of New Ethernet/IP Access Networks
White Paper Other access network architectures including Next-Gen DLC and New SONET/ATM while capable of supporting most of these services do so less flexibly and with higher Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). New Ethernet/IP's Total Cost of Ownership advantage... [10 Jul 2008]
Video Transit on an MPLS Backbone: A Solutions Brief From Juniper Networks
White Paper Historically, video was either compressed in MPEG2 or digitized without compression, and then distributed via backbone networks that have been based on ATM or SONET/SDH. However, as service providers migrate to IP-based video, ATM and SONET/SDH... [10 Jul 2008]
Network Convergence Over MPLS
White Paper Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is emerging as a flexible technology that can transport voice, IPv4, IPv6, layer 2 services (Frame Relay, ATM, Ethernet, etc.and even PDH and SDH/SONET circuits over a single packet infrastructure, in a new... [10 Jul 2008]
Delivering Ethernet Services in the MAN Using Corrigent's Distributed Architecture
White Paper Ethernet traffic, as well as other forms of data traffic, are carried today over traditional SONET-based networks. The volume of data traffic carried over the public network has dramatically surpassed voice traffic. [10 Jul 2008]
Technology Brief: Carrier Vs. Enterprise Ethernet Silicon
White Paper With the latest developed standards and Ethernet products specifically built for carrier applications, Ethernet has begun to penetrate applications where TDM, ATM or SONET have been the prevalent solution for many years. [08 Jul 2008]
Ethernet as Transport Technology of Choice in Campus Ring Environments
White Paper It has become clear that a packet-centric infrastructure is preferred and it is therefore displacing technologies like SONET, ATM and Frame Relay due to the high cost and lack of flexibility associated with these legacy technologies. [07 Jul 2008]
Public Multi-Vendor Carrier Ethernet Interoperability Test
White Paper A number of technologies are available today to carry Ethernet frames over xDSL lines, point-to-point radio links, PDH, SDH/Sonet and obviously fiber. Ethernet's ubiquity is one of the highlighted reasons for its success. [06 Jul 2008]
