Extended Rate Bonded G.shdsl IP DSLAM and CPE for Business-Class Services Fill
Need for Service Providers Looking to do More with Less
Largo, Fla. — July 5, 2005 —
Paradyne (NASDAQ: PDYN), a
leading provider of triple play
Broadband Loop Carriers(IP
BLCs), and Ethernet access equipment, today introduced the
ability to deliver Ethernet services of greater than 10 megabits per second over
two copper pairs using extended rate G.shdsl using the
Paradyne 4279 IP DSLAM and
Paradyne 1750
series CPE.
The
Paradyne 4279 IP DSLAM and 1750 CPE complement their existing
broadband triple play solutions portfolio and can be subtended by existing
Paradyne 8000 series and
Paradyne 12000 IP
BLCs. The solutions optimize throughput
for business class services and provide technology standards such as extended
rate G.shdsl, which boosts SHDSL performance to approximately 5.7Mbps per pair.
Bonding multiple pairs of copper enables even higher bandwidth capabilities,
making it the perfect solution to deliver the highly sought after 10 megabit
Ethernet service offering.
“Paradyne will increase their presence in the Ethernet over Copper market with
their new
IP DSLAM products,” said Michael Howard, principal analyst, Infonetics
Research. “The Paradyne extended rate G.shdsl products give a new option to
service providers who are always looking for ways to efficiently and
cost-effectively offer higher bandwidth Ethernet services to their copper-based
customers.”
Paradyne's extended rate
Ethernet over Copper solutions enable service providers to significantly reduce the
need for trenching and installing expensive fiber connections while capitalizing
on the latest 5.7 Mbps per pair capabilities. These solutions complement Paradyne's leading bonded T1/E1 Ethernet solutions to create a complete
high-speed offering for business customers who don't have access to fiber.
“With bandwidth-hungry applications, service providers are always looking to do
more with less,” said Ken Hood, vice president of product management and
marketing, Paradyne. “Paradyne's extended rate SHDSL products are another step
forward in delivering Ethernet everywhere solutions for our service provider
customers. The
4279 IP DSLAM and 1750 series CPE provide a compelling price to
performance ratio today compared with the competition.”
Paradyne 1750 CPE supports the latest in SHDSL standards with extended rate
support. The 1750 series CPE is certified interoperable with the
Paradyne 4279
IP DSLAM for multipoint applications, and in addition the CPE can also operate
in back-to-back mode for point-to-point applications at symmetric bandwidths and
bond up to four pairs for greater bandwidth.
The
IP DSLAM market and the Ethernet in the First Mile market continue to expand
as service providers offer a wide array of bandwidth-intensive services and
applications. Infonetics Research reported in February 2005 that worldwide total
IP DSLAM revenue approached $700 million in 2004, up 58 percent from 2003, and
is projected to make up 69 percent of total DSLAM revenue by 2008.
