Integrated QoS Platform From Sitara

QoSWorks, Sitara claims, is the first complete Quality of Service (QoS) solution for the network edge, targeted at service providers, enterprise data centers and branch offices. It incorporates all the QoS tools that a network manager needs to set effective policies, such as a built-in traffic classifier, policy manager, Sitara AccuRate Traffic Management (combines and coordinates multiple QoS traffic management mechanisms), policy-smart web caching, and real time monitoring and reporting.

By incorporating multiple QoS tools into one platform, QoSWorks saves network managers the task of installing and synchronizing multiple QoS products at the network edge. QoSWorks is completely transparent to existing network operations and requires no software or hardware changes to network or computing devices. NM

NIC And Hubs From Select Technologies

aceNIC

The ace NIC (Network Interface Card) is based on the "full Wake on LAN (WOL)" function. Ace features 10/100 Auto Switching, in-built Boot ROM socket and WOL function with cable to make it compatible with any motherboard.

Ace NIC supports a wide variety of Interface 1000 STP/UTP cable with CAT 3,4,5 for 10 Mbps and CAT 5 for 100 Mbps.

aceHUB
AceHUBs come with various ports such as 8/16/24 ports. AceHUB is palm sized, lightweight, and easily installable in tight desktop space with no limitations in cascading/expanding.

It also features, AAPP (Advanced Automatic Port Partition), which prevents failure due to network collision. Thus when a port malfunctions, the data is transferred to the other ports and the ace HUB continues to work. The MDI-II UPLINK PORT enables more ports to be available to the network, i.e. the uplink function is built into aceHUB for easy HUB cascading. The LED display enables easy monitoring of the aceHUB.

EtherFast 10/100 Switches From Linksys

The EtherFast 12, 16 and 24 Port 10/100 switches allow seamless communication between 10Mbps and 100Mbps network segments. Unlike regular hubs that bounce data around the network until it reaches its intended target, a switch sends data to the specific location.

The EtherFast 10/100 Switches will immediately improve the efficiency and performance across the network, offering up to 200 Mbps of full-duplex dedicated bandwidth to any node such as PCs, file servers on the network. As the network grows, optional 100BaseFX Fiber Optic Distance Extender module can be added to uplink to the fiber optic LAN and WAN backbones.

5 And 8-Port 10/100 Switches

(VoIP-Ready)

The EtherFast and 8-Port 10/10 Switches offer VoIP transfers over the Internet. This is designed to meet the needs of SME businesses and home users. The EtherFast 10/100 Switches are VoIP-ready and thus enable networks to handle Internet telephony applications. These Layer 2 switches perform packet prioritization at balancing Layer 3 network speeds, thus making them ideal for VoIP applications.

The EtherFast 10/100 Switches, feature full-duplex bandwidth for each port and QoS-enabled port prioritization.

Tejas Network has developed the TJ 100 family of optical access products designed to manage bandwidth and derive services from the optical core. The products are designed to support end-to-end provisioning and management of services across all the segments of the optical network. It combines optical networking software with the intelligence of SONET/SDH.

The TJ 100 family of products includes terminal multiplexers (TMUX), add/drop multiplexers (ADM) and VC-12 cross connects in various configurations with E1, E3, STM-1 and 10/100 Mbps Ethernet tributary interfaces and truck interfaces as STM-1 and STM-4 rates. The multiplexers have built-in non-blocking across-connects at VC-12 granularity and drop-and-continue functionality.

TJ 100 features a high port density of 63 E1 ports in a 3.5" chassis and is software intelligent. The TJ100 family of products is compatible with Silvx NMS that manages all Sycamore equipment. This, along with Sycamore Networks Intelligent Optical Networking products, provides the customer with an end-to-end provisioning from a single platform over multiple service types, from E1s and 10/100Mbps Ethernet up to STM-64 services, across the whole network, from access to regional to DWDM backbone.

In addition, its Element Management System (EMS) provides standard interfaces enabling the network to be managed by third party management systems like HP OpenView.
