Allied Telesis Announces Game Changing FTTx Solution
New design delivers flexibility with true resiliency
Dubai, UAE - Allied Telesis Inc., a global provider of secure IP/Ethernet switching solutions and an industry leader in the deployment of IP Triple Play networks, has launched the SwitchBlade® x3112 FTTx switch platform, the latest in its range of Fiber-to-the-Home/Premise/Node (FTTx) solutions.
The SwitchBlade x3112 combines Allied Telesis' technical leadership in Ethernet switching, carrier access and IP Triple Play to deliver the first in a new series of access chassis solutions targeting the growing FTTx market. The result is a next-generation service provider FTTx platform that offers much greater flexibility than competing switches, without compromising on resiliency. Platform 'flexibility' reduces rack-space and cuts the cost of new FTTx build-out, by eliminating redundant features and ports. The SwitchBlade x3112 features an 800 Gigabit switching fabric providing non-blocking wire-speed performance to every port while redundant hot-swap power supplies and the widely deployed carrier-grade iMAP operating system ensures true carrier-class 99.999% reliability.
The SwitchBlade x3112 is a chassis-based Ethernet switch with 12 slots supporting any combination of 100/1000 optical Ethernet, 10 Gigabit optical Ethernet or Gigabit Power over Ethernet (PoE) service modules. For FTTx services, 24port 100/1000 SFP based modules provide full bandwidth customer connectivity. Fourport 10G modules are typically used in a redundant configuration for high-throughput connectivity to the core of the network. Support for Ethernet Protected Switched Rings (EPSR) combined with redundant management fabric controllers delivers a true high-availability solution.
"We're seeing strong demand for 1Gbe Fiber-to-the-Home and 10Gbe mid-mile solutions," said Melvyn Wray, Senior VP of Product Marketing EMEA at Allied Telesis. "Customer reaction to the SwitchBlade x3112 has been extremely positive and we see this product delivering the performance service providers are asking for with FTTx deployments."
