Overture 24 and 26

Carrier Ethernet Optical Edge


Overture 24 and 26

High performance optical Ethernet demarcation and SLA monitoring

  • Generate & Preserve Revenue

  • Reduce CapEx and OpEx

  • Regain Control of your Services

Overview

The Overture 24 and 26 products implement standards-based OAM (including 802.3ah EFM OAM) and loopbacks. In addition, the Overture 2x's provide performance monitoring that measures and tracks end-to-end SLA parameters such as latency, jitter, packet loss and availability - while the services are running.

The Overture 2x series is a low cost family of products that:

  • Set a clear and consistent demarcation point between the customers' and the carriers' networks—no matter which vendors’ products are used in the core or edge networks
  • Deliver a consistent management interface through standards-based operations, administration and maintenance (OAM) protocols
  • Act as onsite technicians, responding to remote service requests for loopbacks and other remote diagnostics, which keeps truck rolls to a minimum

Applications

Business Services
The Overture 2x enables services to single or multi-tenant business to any location with native Ethernet. It provides fast fault propagation, <50 ms on all interfaces and the client and network ports design delivers the reliability required by enterprise customers. H-QoS, dedicated queues per flow, complete Ethernet OAM and flow-level service differentiation deliver sophisticated enterprise services.

Mobile Backhaul
The Overture 2x enables Ethernet for mobile backhaul to one or multiple carriers at the cell tower. Overture 2x enables service to all towers: on-net or leased networks, Ethernet over fiber or radio.  A compact, hardened solution fits in any tower cabinet. Fast fault propagation, <50 ms on all interfaces, client and network ports, and Ethernet OAM enable a carrier-grade scalable solution.

Wholesale Ethernet Services
The Overture 2x has the breadth and depth of carrier features for Wholesale Ethernet services include SOAM, and H-QoS.
