World Wide Packets receives Level 3 Compliance from NEBS Program
August 15, 2006 Spokane Valley, WA -- World Wide Packets announced that members of its LightningEdge Carrier Ethernet product family have received official compliance from Underwriters Laboratory through its Network Equipment Building System (NEBS) Test Program.
The NEBS Test Program is a value-added service provided to manufacturers of telecommunications equipment. It is designed to provide independent third-party validation of a vendor's telecommunication products and formally document that it has been tested and meets the requirements of NEBS Level 3, Telcordia Technologies. Specifically, the documents used for testing are the GR-63-CORE (which tests for physical protection) and the GR-1089-CORE (which tests for electromagnetic compatibility and electrical safety).
"The NEBS compliance marks another major milestone for World Wide Packets and LightningEdge. The company continues to meet industry standards, delivering customers well supported, highly functional Carrier Ethernet solutions," said Dave Curry, CEO of World Wide Packets. "We are excited to be included in this testing process and look forward to continued validation of this nature for members of the LightningEdge family."
