The prevalence of new Ethernet
delivered services requires increased investment in new packet
networks. Customers demand the continued support of
non-Ethernet services such as TDM voice and data which raises
a concern regarding the cost impact of supporting two networks
- one IP and one TDM-based. With the MX408e Pseudowire
Gateway, Ethernet service delivery is consolidated onto a
single multi-service network supporting the delivery of cost
effective broadband service and legacy service revenue
streams. The pseudowire solution reduces operational costs by
retiring expensive TDM leased lines.
The MX408e:
Transports DS1 circuits over Ethernet, allowing TDM delivery
over Ethernet networks.
DS1 or fractional DS1 circuits are transported using
Pseudowire emulation Edge-to-Edge (PWE3), which is a tunneling
protocol.
