Internet Exchanges & Hosting
New bandwidth-intensive services, such as video on demand (VOD), IPTV, multimedia streaming and P2P applications, increase customer expectations and infrastructure requirements. Business and residential customers alike require higher levels of bandwidth, network reliability and service predictability at lower prices. Deploying infrastructure that offers hitless software upgrades and seamless growth without forklift chassis upgrades ensures minimal network downtime and investment protection.
To accommodate new services and traffic growth, NTT-ME and True deployed the Force10 E-Series family of switch/routers to expand their network capacity. The E-Series 3-CPU architecture delivers industry-best resiliency and embedded security, providing the tools to enforce differentiable Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and prevent catastrophic failure. The E-Series delivers both switching and routing at line-rate Gigabit and 10 Gigabit throughput regardless of traffic type or enabled features. The E-Series supports packet over SONET / SDH and is 100 GbE ready, ensuring growth without network disruption.
