ADVA's FSP 150 Ethernet access family will be used to demonstrate the simplicity of deploying key Ethernet-based next-generation services in the metropolitan area network. "Ethernet is set to emerge as the cost-effective, simple transport foundation for a broad array of high-demand services, including VoIP (voice over Internet Protocol), IPTV (Internet Protocol TV) Also called "TV over IP," IPTV delivers scheduled TV programs and video-on-demand (VOD) via the IP protocol and digital streaming techniques used to watch video on the Internet. (IP television), carrier VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) and high-speed Internet access," said Abdul Kasim, ADVA's vice president, Ethernet business development. "ADVA's FSP 150 series was expressly designed for mass-market rollout of Ethernet-based carrier services. Our new release of the product family offers a new tandem node protection mechanism, an enhanced customer premise demarcation unit and a new Gigabit Ethernet aggregation device - all intended to improve carrier flexibility, simplify management and reduce total cost of ownership for Ethernet services." Kasim will be one of the contributors in the MEF's "Ethernet Services Over Packet-Aware Transport" presentation taking place at 11 a.m. on June 9 at SUPERCOMM. ADVA will also demonstrate the FSP 150 - based on the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields. 802.3ah, Ethernet in the First Mile Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM), also known as IEEE 802.3ah, is a collection of protocols specified in IEEE 802.3, defining the Ethernet in the Access networks, i.e. First/Last Mile. (EFM (Ethernet in the First Mile) Using Ethernet to provide connectivity from the customer to the carrier. See 802.3ah. ) standard for Operations, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) - in the company's booth, #39025, at SUPERCOMM. Plus, Lars Ramfelt, ADVA's vice president, Ethernet technology strategy, will speak on "Mass Deployment of Ethernet Services: At Last Profitable & Carrier-Class" at 9:15 a.m. on June 7 at SUPERCOMM.
