RAD is preparing to commercialize its new Service Assured Access (SAA) offering that features a service-lifecycle toolkit designed to “normalize the access network using a vast array of capabilities that go beyond MEF CE 2.0 requirements, and supports multiple deployment mode scenarios over various bearer circuits: fiber, DSL and PDH,” the Israel-based company says. Operators reportedly can configure the SAA to fit their rollout plans, existing infrastructure, migration plans and opex/capex objectives. With the SAA’s help, they can build a Carrier Ethernet access network, including smart demarcation and Ethernet service pre-aggregation.
