New trunk module enhances multi-service transport over any network
architecture
Las Vegas (From NAB 2009)- April 20, 2009 - Net Insight, a leading
developer of efficient and scalable optical transport solutions for
media, IP and broadcast networks, today unveiled its 3 x IP/Ethernet
Trunk Module, the latest addition to its family of trunk interfaces
for the Nimbra One and Nimbra 300 series of next generation
multi-service switches. Net Insight's IP Trunk Module extends the
scope of the Nimbra platform by enabling the transport of
high-quality, next-generation consumer and business services over
virtually any network type.
The 3 x IP/Ethernet Trunk Module provides a transport solution
featuring multi-service operation, optional intermediate switching
and signal regeneration for enhanced QoS preservation. With the new
module, operators now have the option to create next generation IP
media network over existing IP, SDH/SONET, WDM or fiber.
To accomodate increased market demand for digital video services
without incurring additional costs, operators need to use existing
infrastructure to deliver high QoS on-demand connections over wide
area networks. Net Insight's 3 x IP/Ethernet Trunk Module delivers
the flexibility that operators need by opening up the usage of the
steadily growing amount of low cost IP/Ethernet connections.
Operators can also set the QoS transport bandwidth which optimizes
the use of the network infrastructure, a critical component for last
mile connections. "Net Insight's Nimbra combined with its IP Trunk
Module provides the industry's most cost-effective multi-service
solution offering a media centric platform, with flexible end-to end
management, and the best possible bandwidth allocation," said Per
Lindgren, VP Business Development at Net Insight. "As broadcaster
requirements continue to evolve across a wide range of needs based on
resolution, coding and usage, service providers' ability to deploy an
optimal mix of IP capacity and optical links to provide better QoS is
key to differentiating and optimizing their service offerings."
Fitted in a Nimbra One or Nimbra 300 series switch, the 3 x
IP/Ethernet Trunk Module enables a flexible access solution that can
access and aggregate native video, audio and data services for
broadcast and media network applications. The new modules are fully
interoperable with the other interfaces found within the Nimbra One
and Nimbra 300 series.
Key product features include:
* Three 1000/100/10 Ethernet ports for link diversity and
aggregation
* Configurable trunk bandwidth
* Configurable Forward Error Correction (FEC)
* Advanced clock recovery
* Comprehensive protection options
* Performance monitoring
* Standards compliant
Field tests for Net Insight's 3 x IP/Ethernet Trunk Module will
commence in May and with general availability in October 2009.
