M-ETH is a high-density, 8-port I/O module that enables cost-efficient Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. It provides the Megaplex-4 multiservice access nodes with multirate FE/GE interfaces.
The M-ETH module can be used to provide LAN connectivity among Ethernet ports on the same module, as well as Ethernet services, thus eliminating the need for an external switch while providing a dependable Ethernet connectivity solution.
Coupling the Ethernet I/O module with the CL.2/A module adds Service Assured Access capabilities to Megaplex, allowing operators to more easily plan, deploy, provision, and maintain existing and new services with lower TCO, while offering resilient, always-on service with predictable QoS/QoE.
M-ETH complements the ability of Megaplex-4 to handle a broad range of Ethernet, data and voice servic es, meeting all Service Assured Access and Service Migration Hybrid Access solution needs.
