Based on IP and Ethernet and specifically designed to deliver video, voice, and data over a single broadband connection See broadband and wireless broadband. , the new 7700 and 7400 DSLAMs make triple play services economically viable for carriers everywhere. "We see triple play infrastructure as a long-term, strategic opportunity where our leadership in IP and Ethernet systems give us a strong advantage," said Howard Kamerer, COO of Allied Telesyn. "IP and Ethernet are a far more flexible and cost-effective means of delivering advanced services, and the 7000 Series DSLAMs leverage them to make triple play services a profitable reality for carriers. In the coming months, we will be releasing a complete line of products that support high-performance, cost-effective distribution of voice, data, and video services from the network to the customer premises." Optimized for profitable delivery of video over ADSL See DSL. ADSL - Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line , the new 7000 series next-generation DSLAMs can support up to 512 video channels.

IOCs Eager to Roll Out Triple Play Services Independent Operating Companies (IOCs) have been hungry for triple play capabilities because they are facing declining voice revenues along with increased data service competition from cable and satellite operators. By offering triple play services over existing copper customer connections, these IOCs will gain a key weapon in the battle to retain customers. Until now, however, DSLAMs have either lacked the capabilities to support broadband video, or they have been so expensive to deploy that carriers can't profit with them. With its new 7700 and 7400 next-generation DSLAMs, Allied Telesyn is the first company to offer DSLAMs that leverage the low operating costs of IP and Ethernet while delivering the high video distribution performance and customer density required to make triple play services profitable. "ATM-based DSLAMs have proven too costly and cumbersome for video deployments, and IOCs are all looking toward IP-based solutions to make triple play a reality," said Deb Mielke, principal at Treillage Network Strategies, Inc. "Allied Telesyn has strong Ethernet and IP capabilities, in-house manufacturing, and a global service organization, so they're a natural leader as the market moves toward IP video." "Allied Telesyn's IP-based DSLAMs give us the flexibility we need to meet our customer satisfaction and revenue goals, and they're a great company to work with," said Bryan Campbell Bryan Campbell (born March 27, 1944 in Sudbury, Ontario) is a retired professional ice hockey forward who played 260 games in the National Hockey League and 433 games in the World Hockey Association. , network engineer with Steelville Telephone. "Our vendor relationship with Allied Telesyn is one of the best we have ever had."
