Accedian Networks - The Carrier Sense of EthernetStore this angel in big sizeMontreal, QC, May 9th, 2007 — Accedian Networks Inc., a arch provider of Ethernet Demarcation Devices, today appear that it has added a new EVC Aggregation Ethernet Demarcation Device to its EtherNID™ artefact family.

Because businesses may not accept the appropriate centralized IT ability or assets to un-bundle aggregated Ethernet services, they will sometimes crave the account provider to action a fan-out of EVCs (i.e. VLANs) on altered concrete ports, e.g. for VoIP, Best-Effort Internet or Transparent VLAN Services. The EtherNID™ VEE and EtherNID™ VOE action an simple band-aid to this charge by accouterment one 10/100M Network-side anchorage (Electrical for VEE and Optical for VOE) and two 10/100M Client-side ports, anniversary assigned with its own EVC, in accession to assuming a complete Ethernet Demarcation function.

“On top of alms differentiated and ready-to-use EVCs, the EtherNID VEE/VOE now allows account providers to save big-ticket ports on their upstream provider bend platforms and accordingly bifold the aggregate of chump ports that can be offered aural a account area” said Patrick Ostiguy, President and CEO of Accedian Networks “all of this while accouterment the industry’s a lot of able Ethernet Demarcation functionality.”
