Corrigent Releases New Packet Transport Switch Product Line.CM-4000 Delivers Breakthrough Scalability for Packet Transport Networks SAN JOSE San Jose, city, United States San Jose (sănəzā`, săn hōzā`), city (1990 pop. 782,248), seat of Santa Clara co., W central Calif.; founded 1777, inc. 1850. , Calif. -- Corrigent Systems, a leading provider of Packet Transport equipment, announced today the release of the CM-4000 Packet Transport Switch (PTS PTS put to sleep; a common euphemism for euthanasia, but also used to describe general anesthesia. ) series, a new line of advanced transport products designed to provide highly scalable end-to-end delivery of packet 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 over a single, converged transport infrastructure. This new product line builds on Corrigent's industry-leading packet transport technology and is designed to provide a universal transport solution, capable of delivering any traffic mix, from 100% circuit-based TDM to 100% Ethernet services with high cost efficiency. The CM-4000 PTS, which includes the CM-4314 and CM-4206, provides full non-blocking switching capacity of 320Gbps and 160Gbps respectively, scalable to 640Gbps and 320Gbps. It provides unmatched in-service scalability through the introduction of advanced bonding technologies, which allow network operators to scale network links to up to 100Gbps per link. The CM-4000 PTS facilitates the migration towards all-IP by providing network operators with a viable path to convergence through the introduction of SONET/SDH-to-Ethernet interworking (standard) interworking - Systems or components, possibly from different origins, working together to perform some task. Interworking depends crucially on standards to define the interfaces between the components. , and high-port-density Ethernet interfaces. While still providing full support for circuit-based TDM services and applications, the CM-4000 enables service providers to cost-effectively offer standards-compliant E-Line, E-LAN and E-TREE Ethernet services. This facilitates the delivery of profitable advanced IP services such as residential Triple Play, business Ethernet and the backhaul of 3G and 3.5G wireless and WiMax services over a single, converged packet transport infrastructure. The CM-4000 PTS also offers a unique application and service-aware traffic management scheme, which guarantees end-to-end performance during congestion The condition of a network when there is not enough bandwidth to support the current traffic load. congestion - When the offered load of a data communication path exceeds the capacity. , and enables dynamic bandwidth reclamation and optimal bandwidth utilization at all times. With the CM-4000, service providers can guarantee end-to-end performance for their services, but also differentiate between application instances, effectively allowing carriers to benefit from higher margins on preferred services and overcoming net neutrality (NETwork neutrality) A level playing field for Internet transport. It refers to the absence of restrictions or priorities placed on the type of content carried over the Internet by the carriers and ISPs that run the major backbones. . Michael Howard

The CM-4000 is one of a new breed of such products embodying the characteristics that large carriers are looking for to build their next gen metro networks Metro Networks is a broadcasting outsourcing company based in Houston, Texas. It is a subsidiary of Westwood One, which is managed by CBS Radio. The company operates a number of local and regional news and traffic facilities that provide regular reports to affiliates, together with ." "Packet Transport is the next step for carriers looking to implement Ethernet-centric transport networks," said Gady Rosenfeld, VP Marketing for Corrigent Systems. "Our CM-4000 Packet Transport Switch represents the merger point for transport and Ethernet, allowing carriers to benefit from Ethernet's ubiquity, simplicity and cost effectiveness, and yet maintain the general-purpose characteristics of the transport network." Corrigent is unveiling the CM-4000 PTS product line simultaneously this week at two leading telecommunications events: the C5 World Forum in Milan, Italy and at the OFC/NFOEC exhibition in Anaheim, California “Anaheim” redirects here. For Annaheim, see Annaheim, Saskatchewan. Anaheim is a city in Orange County, California, located 28 miles southeast of Los Angeles. . The CM-4000 PTS product line addresses service providers' challenges in building carrier-class, general-purpose metro transport networks. Among the many benefits the CM-4000 offers are: * In-service scalability of network-side links of up to 100Gbps through advanced link bonding technologies * Universal packet transport of any combination of TDM and packet traffic, from 100% TDM to 100% Ethernet * Fully non-blocking switching capacity of 320Gbps scalable to 640Gbps * Support for the complete range of PDH PDH - Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy , SONET/SDH, Fibre Channel and Ethernet interfaces * Advanced TDM-to-Ethernet interworking functions on high-density, multi-service SONET/SDH and PDH interfaces * Application and service-aware traffic management to overcome net neutrality, allowing carriers to benefit from higher margins on preferred services * Multi-rate and Multi-protocol configurable interfaces for quick and flexible service activation * Colored optics and OTN OTN Oracle Technology Network OTN Optical Transport Network (Cienna) OTN On The Net OTN Open Transport Network (Apple) OTN Oncology Therapeutics Network OTN On That Note OTN Optical Network Terminal interfaces, for cost-effective integration with the photonic network * Transport-class availability with guaranteed sub-50ms service recovery over any topology * Hierarchical, fully-correlated, multi-layer OAM (Operations Administration Maintenance) Refers to managing and maintaining a network or network device. The P in "OAM&P" adds "provisioning" to the list, which is a telephone company term for setting up a service. , providing transport-class performance monitoring, diagnostics and troubleshooting functionality The capabilities of the CM-4000 PTS translate into clear business advantages for service providers offering or looking to offer the following end-user applications: * Residential Triple Play services (VoIP, Video and Internet Access) * Business Ethernet, including point to point and multipoint Ethernet services * 3/3.5G wireless and WiMax backhaul * Peer-to-peer and on-demand content distribution About Corrigent Corrigent Systems is a market leader in next generation metro transport systems. The Packet Transport Switch (PTS) product line has been designed to enable profitable delivery of voice, video and data services over a converged packet transport infrastructure. Corrigent Systems focuses in metro transport technology that maximizes revenue and profit for service providers. Used by carriers worldwide, the PTS product line integrates Ethernet, MPLS (1) (MultiProtocol Lambda Switching) The earlier name for GMPLS. See GMPLS.
