Ethernet switches take more onboard
Two new devices enable network access equipment to aggregate, inspect and modify real-time traffic in triple play and carrier-grade Ethernet VLAN applications.
Zarlink Semiconductor has expanded its ClassSwitch Ethernet platform with two new devices enabling lower cost design and faster deployment of network access equipment that must aggregate, inspect and modify real-time traffic in triple play and carrier-grade Ethernet VLAN (virtual local area network) applications Seeking new ways to deliver the complete range of applications over more efficient network architectures, carriers are deploying PON technology to carry triple play voice, video and data services over fibre networks
