Amedia Networks, formerly TTR Technologies, has expanded its technology licensing agreement with Lucent Technologies concerning active Ethernet-based FTTP access solutions. Lucent has also delivered to Amedia Networks several Bell Labs-developed technology designs for Amedia Networks PG1000 (Premises Gateway) and the AS5000 (Aggregator Switch).
In support of this ongoing strategy, Amedia Networks has entered into a supplemental agreement with Lucent, who will provide additional technology designs for further product enhancements for the PG1000 and AS5000. This work is expected to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2004. http://www.amedianetworks.com
- In June 2004, Amedia Networks, formerly TTR Technologies, unveiled an active Ethernet-based Fiber-to-the-Premises (FTTP) access solution. The company's Ethernet Switched Optical Network (ESON) technology, which was licensed from and jointly developed with Lucent Bell Labs, provides QoS mechanisms for delivering triple play services at up to 100 Mbps bandwidth per subscriber. The Amedia portfolio includes:
The PG1000 Premises Gateway: customer premises equipment located at the subscriber's home or business to enable ultra-broadband high QoS access, wirelessly or using traditional wiring.
The AS5000 Aggregation Switch: a hardened distribution switch located between the Central Office/Head End and the end-user location.
The CS1200: Core Switch: an Ethernet and MPLS switch located at the Central Office/Head End of the service provider network.
The Director: a simple network management protocol (SNMP) based full fault, configuration, accounting, provisioning and security (FCAPS) Network Management System proving remote, end-to-end single person network operations
