RAD Helps Yipes Extend Ethernet Services Network Beyond Fiber Reach

RAD Intelligent Converters Help Expand Customer Access over Leased Lines


Application

Ethernet Service Extension

Challenge

To provide a reliable and economical means of extending managed Ethernet services across leased TDM connections to serve out-offootprint (off-network) customers

Solution

Deploy RAD’s RIC family of intelligent Ethernet over TDM converters to extend Ethernet across T1/E1, T3/E3, and SONET/SDH leased lines from third-party service providers to reach customers outside of normal coverage areas. The RIC family enables affordable Ethernet delivery at a variety of speeds, using copper bonding to fill the “bandwidth gap” between T1/E1 and T3/E3

 

Benefits

  • Extend managed Ethernet services over TDM infrastructure
  • Provide uniform Ethernet services to both in and outof-footprint (off-network) customers
  • Minimize service disruption and reduce operating costs via sophisticated diagnostic tools

 

RAD’s RIC products provide a reliable and cost-effective means for extending our Ethernet service over leased lines in service areas beyond the reach of our network.

Yipes Enterprise Services, Inc. is the leading global provider of managed, end-to-end Ethernet solutions for enterprise customers. Yipes operates a global native Ethernet network that leverages 14,000 route-miles of fiber infrastructure and has a large and rapidly growing customer base. Yipes offers a uniquely scalable suite of networking services that combine the speed, simplicity and cost effectiveness of native Ethernet with Yipes proprietary bandwidth-on-demand functionality.

In order to reach off-net customer locations, Yipes extends its core fiber-based Ethernet service over leased SONET facilities. By mapping the Yipes service over DS-3, OC-3 and in the future OC-12, their service can reach all customers, even when the customers are beyond the reach of the Yipes fiber-based core network.

 

RAD’s technology allows us to meet the rapidly increasing demand for managed Ethernet services
through leased-line connectivity.

An Intelligent Bridge between Ethernet and TDM

RAD’s RIC family of intelligent converters is used to bridge between the Yipes Ethernet network and the leased TDM lines. “RAD’s RIC products provide a reliable and cost effective means for extending our Ethernet service over leased lines in service areas beyond the reach of our network,” said Kamran Sistanizadeh, Chief Technology Officer and co-founder of Yipes. “We are continually working to expand our network and add POPs in strategic locations. At the same time, RAD's technology also allows us to meet the rapidly increasing demand for managed Ethernet services through leased-line connectivity.”

RAD’s RIC family of intelligent converters enables service providers to extend their Ethernet footprint by delivering transparent wire-speed Ethernet services over DS-3 or OC-3/STM-1 lines. They provide simple, efficient and cost-effective bridging of Ethernet with support for Q-in-Q VLAN tagging, QoS prioritization, simple set-up, and a full range of management capabilities and diagnostics. RAD is also currently testing a version for transport of Ethernet over OC-12 facilities.

RAD’s Ethernet Access Portfolio

The RIC family is part of RAD’s extensive portfolio of Ethernet access solutions. “RAD is at the forefront of delivering highly scalable and cost effective Ethernet access solutions,” said Oded Ilan, President of RAD Data Communications USA. RAD’s solution for Ethernet over DS-1, DS-3 and OC-3 includes the Egate, an aggregation device typically deployed in a POP, and the RIC products, typically deployed at the customer premises. The ETX intelligent demarcation devices are used for Ethernet transport over fiber. RAD also leads the industry in pseudowire solutions for transporting TDM streams across Ethernet networks.
