ARROW2488 with unprecedented integration, can be used for the next generation of optical transmission, while meeting the operators to upgrade and expand the demand for
China, Beijing, November 7, 2006? PMC-Sierra Inc. (Nasdaq: PMCS) today announced PM5336ARROW2488, which is a function of a variety of high-capacity single-chip program, which integrates multi-rate SONET / SDH framers, non-blocking STS / AU and VT / TU Internet, as well as first-class backplane SERDES, can be used in next-generation compact and scalable chassis-based SONET / SDH platform. Operators are now actively promoting the adoption of converged networks to more effectively manage both new Ethernet Service And has been built based on existing SONET / SDH infrastructure T1/E1 services, in order to meet these requirements, OEM Must deliver highly integrated, scalable metro transport solutions with reduced power consumption, cost and complexity. ARROW2488 makes the system OEM to build carrier grade optical access aggregation equipment, it is compared to available silicon solutions with greatly improved the chip size and power, is PMC-Sierra's new highly integrated solution, with the company has been successful in the market and CHESS broadband CHESSTMIII SONET / SDH product line in the software compatible. ARROW2488 features include:
Can be optimized compact OC-48/STM-16 Multi-Service Provisioning Platform (MSPP), and can be extended to multi-port OC-192/STM-64 applications;
Support packet MSPP optical add / drop requirements and reconfigurable optical add / drop multiplexer Multiplexer (ROADM);
Integrated tested by the CHESSIP, through the CHESS software reuse can reduce development cycles and accelerate time to market;
With existing programs could be reduced by 80% compared to the number of chips, significantly reducing bill of materials cost and board space requirements;
A full hardware PS Algorithm (MAPS ), may be more than 50msec protection switching time requirements up to 5376 branch.
"We are constantly in critical technologies Investment To enable operators to transition to converged networks, through SONET / SDH backplane transmit IP data, "PMC-Sierra Inc. Communicate Products Division, vice president of marketing and applications DinoBekis said. "With the deployment of quad-play service industry on rapid rise in demand for broadband, SONET / SDH remains the metro network operators to ensure the best choice for performance and reliability. Our ARROW2488 application for OC-48/STM-16 optimized, and can be expanded to OC-192/STM-64, to ensure that SONET / SDH to remain the most competitive transport technology and allowing carriers to leverage existing infrastructure to meet the network expansion requirements. "
Some of the leading metro Transmission equipment Manufacturers have in their existing network using the actual PMC-Sierra's CHESS products.
"PMC-Sierra's CHESS portfolio ARROW2488 with our cost-optimized SONET / SDH system, an important part," Lucent Technologies Director of Product Development JayFahey said. "PMC-Sierra shows the demands on our understanding of the program by providing a stable and durable so that we can use the existing platform, thus reducing development costs and accelerate product speed to market."
Flexibility advantages ARROW2488 for the system designer provides a framework for a variety of applications and devices:
For pocket-sized (pizza box) MSPP's multi-port OC-48/STM-16 single-chip solution
