Telcos

The race is on for cable operators and Telcos to capture new revenue streams by delivering the triple play of services--voice, data, and video--over a common network infrastructure. From a hardware perspective, IP-based products that enable the migration from a circuit-switched to packet-based network infrastructure is of paramount importance, including soft-switches for voice, digital head-ends for IP video, and broadband loop carrier systems. Broadband Loop Carrier (BLC) enables carriers to profitably deliver POTS, broadband and IP services such as video from a single, converged all-packet voice and data access network.

The mensa puzzle for carriers is on the balance sheet--optimizing the return on their network assets, reducing equipment operating costs, and leveraging legacy equipment, while unveiling next-gen IP services. GigabitsDirect.com is uniquely positioned to lend assistance with a complete portfolio of new, used, refurbished and OEM-compatible 10GB optical transport products, replacement end-of-life equipment and related services.


Gigabitsdirect has helped many Telcos with next generation solutions at discounts beyond the best normal distribution pricing. Gigabitsdirect.com has advised many Telcos on aggregation and transport solutions for different traffic types—Ethernet/IP, ATM, and TDM. In addition, GigabitsDirect.com can assist in the conversion from legacy protocols—for example, ATM to Ethernet/IP and TDM voice to packet-based voice. This is a crucial step to enable service providers to migrate from circuit-based to packet-based architecture and deploy killer triple-play offerings.
