Canoga Perkins Corporation Hardened Ethernet 9145E NID

There is a major difference between simply terminating Metro Ethernet Services, and terminating them PROFITABLY. A basic media converter can be used - but doing so won't ensure the customer's packet stream is "Transport Ready" for your network, and it will not provide the availability and service levels customers demand. Nor do media converters perform the EVC functions needed by your network or the advanced OAM functions required by your network operations and the core network. Terminating Metro Ethernet Services reliably and proftably requires more capabilities than simple media converters provide. Canoga Perkins' 9145E Network Interface Device (NID) provides the comprehensive set of features needed while being exceptionally easy to deploy. The 9145E builds on the industry leading 9145 NID with more memory, a faster communications processor family, and more fexibility in the type and number of ports. Increased communications processor power allows UNI and NNI deployments. Management Inter-connection link between 9145Es on a protected NNI link allows full management, availability and performance testing and eliminates the typical single point of failure.The scalable communication processor family enables you to complement your core network without over spending for unneeded features and capabilities. The 9145E Standard Version has the intelligence to support your EVC and EVPL services, and the tools for Network Operations to effciently provision and maintain services. With the 9145E, specifc local loop and customer termination issues are quickly identifed, so personnel can be dispatched to correct specifc issues, not just troubleshoot. This increases service availability and reduces OPEX.

The 9145E is Canoga Perkins' second generation Ethernet NID platform. The 9145E builds on the existing 9145 by adding new features and functions required by Service Providers to deliver MEF compliant Metro Ethernet Services.The 9145E's expandable, flexible architecture allows addition of new features and applications without the need of hardware replacement. This protects your investment by providing for new industry standards and techniques with a simple software download.With the features and function needed for deployment at UNI, NNI and other strategic points within the network the 9145E is key to delivering, managing and maintaining profitable Metro Ethernet Services and provide test points within a MEN.
