The Entra Access Switch is a remote cloud managed, eight port x 10GbE weatherproof switch capable of supporting Carrier Ethernet services in almost any deployment environment, says Vecima.
It is designed to extend the capacity of networks with insufficient fibers while minimizing the use of expensive DWDM optics. Capital expenditure costs are significantly reduced for short run fiber extension, deep fiber deployments and R-OLT for PON. Metro Ethernet support enables deployment at business parks, while full support for IEEE 1588 and SyncE timing provides the capability for mobile network backhaul and as well as DOCSIS 3.1 distributed access aggregation. The Entra Access Switch will ensure maximum ROI from existing short and long range fiber links, the company says.
