Fine Point Networks' ServPoET(R) Releases Upgraded Support for AdvancedTCA Solutions.NEW YORK New York, state, United States New York, Middle Atlantic state of the United States. It is bordered by Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and the Atlantic Ocean (E), New Jersey and Pennsylvania (S), Lakes Erie and Ontario and the Canadian province of -- Fine Point Technologies a leader in broadband network connectivity, today announced that the new release of its Broadband Management Server Network Operating System An operating system that is designed for network use. Normally, it is a complete operating system with file, task and job management; however, with some earlier products, it was a separate component that ran under the OS; for example, LAN Server required OS/2, and LANtastic required DOS. (NOS) ServPoET BMS BMS abbr. Bachelor of Marine Science v3.7 offers enhanced Advanced Telecom Computing Architecture* (AdvancedTCA*) support. ServPoET 3.7 on AdvancedTCA* in conjunction with the newly released feature of no interruption of subscriber's service during PPPoE configuration changes and its previously released patent-pending SmartCluster(TM) Advanced Clustering Technology solidifies ServPoET BMS as the completely redundant solution for providing mission critical PPPoE termination services. Bob Carrick, Broadband Product Manager at Fine Point Networks, commented, "Enhancing our AdvancedTCA* support for the BMS 1000, which we've already sold and deployed to two US based providers, enables Service Providers to offer residential PPPoE Internet services on a fully redundant, up to 72,000 subscriber capacity, and load balancing The fine tuning of a computer system, network or disk subsystem in order to more evenly distribute the data and/or processing across available resources. For example, in clustering, load balancing might distribute the incoming transactions evenly to all servers, or it might redirect them on a standardized carrier grade communications platform, that we feel only standards-based, modular building Modular buildings are sectional prefabricated buildings that are manufactured in a plant, and delivered to the customer in one or more complete modular sections. Modular buildings are considerably different from mobile homes. blocks from Intel could deliver." The ServPoET BMS 1000 is deployed using standards-based, modular building blocks from Intel, more specifically on the Intel NetStructure(R) MPCBL MPCBL Maple Plain Community Branch Library (Maple Plain, MN) 0001 Single Board Computer, which is housed in the Intel NetStructure MPCHC0001 14U Shelf. Fine Point Networks also deploys the BMS 1000 using the Intel NetStructure MPCMM0001 Chassis Management Module. Also included in the ServPoET BMS 3.7 release is Bridged Ethernet over Asynchronous Transfer Mode See ATM. (communications) Asynchronous Transfer Mode - (ATM, or "fast packet") A method for the dynamic allocation of bandwidth using a fixed-size packet (called a cell). See also ATM Forum, Wideband ATM. ATM acronyms. Indiana acronyms. (ATM) support and the ability to modify server configuration changes without interrupting currently connected subscribers. "TEMs and service providers are increasingly requiring flexible, scalable network infrastructure built on industry standards," said Staci Palmer, director of marketing, Modular Communications Platform Division, Intel. "AdvancedTCA solutions, such as SERVPOET(R) from Fine Point, meet these requirements and help to accelerate CapEx and OpEx benefits in a standards-based network." The new release of the ServPoET BMS NOS empowers Service Providers to not only terminate PPPoE and PPPoEoA subscriber sessions, but now also Bridge Ethernet over ATM subscriber traffic through the ServPoET BMS. This enhancement allows Service Providers who have a mix of subscriber base, from PPPoX through Bridged Ethernet to all be aggregated on to one central ServPoET BMS as well as bridging costly ATM traffic over to Ethernet, lowering network deployment costs significantly. The ServPoET(TM) Broadband Management Server (BMS) platform provides the industry-leading family of PPPoE subscriber management products that offload and terminate PPPoE sessions for all types of broadband service See broadband and broadband service provider. at nearly 1/3 the cost and 3x the performance. The ServPoET BMS(TM) platform offers carriers and service providers worldwide a solution for aggregating and managing broadband PPPoE subscribers and value-added services.
