ZyXEL MSC1000A Management and switching card with 4 FE/GE uplink/subtending Internal network switch component

MSC1000A Management and switching card with 4 FE/GE uplink/subtending The importance of Broadband IP Access has been demonstrated by the year-after-year increase of new and innovative Internet, Voice, and Video applications. The adoption of IP gives service providers much more flexibility and efficiency than traditional networks comprised of various technologies such as frame relay, ATM, and TDM.

ZyXEL IP Express IP-based DSLAMs offer advantages over traditional technologies such as increased efficiency, faster speeds, and improved management. For example, they reduce the complexity of data format conversion, solve traffic congestion problems with high-speed, nonblocking Ethernet switching technology, and also provide a good mechanism for video multicasting applications, such as IGMP snooping. Thus, by eliminating protocol transformation over the access network, Telco operators have an alternative method to deploy a more cost effective Ethernet infrastructure from metro to core networks.

ZyXEL’s IP Express series terminates and converts ATM traffic directly into an Ethernet environment. It covers a wide range of Central and Remote IP DSLAMs well suited for services with different deployment scales and requirements.
