Coastcom Introduces Two New Ethernet Over SONET/SDH (EoS) Platforms to Its Product Family.ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Coastcom, a leading manufacturer and supplier of metro/access network solutions for connecting voice, data, and video services to public and private networks, announced today it has broadened its optical product line to include the RazorAccess 1600 Multi-Service Provisioning Platform (MSPP (MultiService Provisioning Platform) A high-end Cisco router that supports TDM circuits, packets and optical connections at the edge of the network. See MSSP and MSTP. ), and the RazorAccess 800 Next-Generation SONET/SDH Add Drop Multiplexer (ADM See add/drop multiplexer. (language) ADM - A picture query language, extension of Sequel2. ["An Image-Oriented Database System", Y. Takao et al, in Database Techniques for Pictorial Applications, A. Blaser ed, pp. 527-538]. ). The RazorAccess 1600 combines the functionality of a SONET/SDH ADM, Layer 2 Ethernet Switch, Channel Bank, and Digital Access Cross-Connect (DACS DACS Data & Analysis Center for Software DACS Design and Analysis of Communication Systems (University of Twente, Netherlands) DACS Digital Access & Cross-Connect System DACS Data Acquisition and Control System (NASA) ) in a single rack unit (1 RU) over an optical trunk with speeds up to OC-12/STM-4. In addition, the RazorAccess 1600 platform allows for a variety of voice and data services via plug-in modules that can be added and removed as required. This allows service providers to optimize their networks by installing only the actual services required when they are required (pay as you grow). The RazorAccess 800 platform delivers Gigabit Ethernet, Fast Ethernet and TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) A technology that transmits multiple signals simultaneously over a single transmission path. Each lower-speed signal is time sliced into one high-speed transmission. services from a very compact (1/2 RU wide) platform, that is well positioned for 3G and Broadband wireless backhaul. With a list price of $4,995.00, the RazorAccess 800 is a very cost effective add/drop multiplexer that combines nxT1/E1 digital access and Ethernet Virtual Concatenation (VCAT) with powerful grooming and cross connect capabilities. According to Arturo Zarate, Coastcom's Director of Marketing and Business Development, "The RazorAccess 1600 & RazorAccess 800 provide a common Ethernet over SONET/SDH (EoS) transport network infrastructure that can enable an efficient migration to next-generation packet interfaces as well as more economical delivery of traditional TDM and leased line interfaces." About Coastcom Since its inception 36 years ago, Coastcom, which pioneered development of the first intelligent T1 access multiplexer (D/I D/I Due-In D/I Debt to Income ratio D/I Drop/Insert D/I Distinctive Insignia D/I Decimation/Interpolation Mux), has now expanded its family of product offerings to support leading edge technologies. These technologies include CWDM (Course WDM) An optical transmission method that is used for shorter distances than dense WDM (DWDM). Also known as "wide WDM," CWDM transmits fewer channels and uses wider spacing between the channels for distances up to 60 km. Wider spacing up to 25 nm, compared to 1. ROADM ROADM Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer ROADM Reconfigurable Add Drop Multiplexing , Next Generation SONET/SDH (EoS), MSPP, IP-DSLAM, GigE Switches, and Broadband IADs. As a result, Coastcom enables customers to optimize their existing networks, and offer new IP services with a minimal investment by leveraging their existing infrastructure.
