Business Ethernet

As organizations continue to expand and build remote offices, the ability to effectively share information between headquarters and remote locations has become critical. As Gigabit Ethernet and packet-based networks quickly becomes the technology of choice for business services, networks are expected to deliver carrier-grade quality of service (QoS) while maintaining, or decreasing, OPEX.

Today, service providers are facing challenges including visibility in the Ethernet backhaul and the ability to identify, isolate and resolve issues quickly to minimize the impact on the services. These service providers need to deliver real-time and effective connectivity services for enterprises, as this is essential for their profitability and sustainability.

Accedian’s Business Ethernet Service assurance is fully monitored and QoS optimized. Features include:

• End-to-End OAM Visibility (See figure 1)
