) introduced a chip set designed to substantially increase fiber efficiency and decrease provisioning times in metropolitan optical access networks. The CHESS-Narrowband(TM) (CHannelizer Engine for SONET/SDH Narrowband In communications, transmission rates up to T1 speeds (1.544 Mbps). The upper limit is moving target. At one time, narrowband meant 150 bps (that is 150 bits per second!). Then, the upper limit became 2,400 bps. Later, it moved to 64 Kbps. Contrast with wideband and broadband. ) chip set provides high density grooming Combining, consolidating and segregating network traffic using devices such as digital cross-connects, add/drop multiplexers and SONET switches. Grooming is a telephone term that typically refers to managing high-capacity lines between central offices, carriers, ISPs and very large  and aggregation to better utilize bandwidth in next generation SONET/SDH edge networks. With the CHESS-Narrowband's flexible fiber channel management capabilities, system designers are able to develop cost-effective, scalable platforms.
