Featured Products

Megaplex-4
Megaplex-4

The Megaplex-4’s ability to handle a broad range of Ethernet, data and voice services, as well as a large variety of network technologies, in a single compact managed node, makes it an ideal solution for carriers and service providers. The device also provides a perfect fit for large enterprises, utilities and transportation companies who require an efficient way to transport and provision multiple legacy and next-generation services over their high capacity pipes. Megaplex-4 can be used as a central aggregation unit for TDM and Ethernet CPEs that are connected over various access link technologies, e.g., HSDSL and SDH/SONET.

The Megaplex-4 is available with a cable management solution to reduce storage space and handling, and eliminate cable waste.

Megaplex-1
Megaplex-1

The Megaplex-1 is specifically designed to address the needs of critical infrastructure network operators who are migrating to next-generation Ethernet or IP/MPLS communications. This includes utilities, transportation, and government users. It is specifically designed to address the needs of critical infrastructure network operators who are migrating to next-generation Ethernet, IP, or MPLS communications. It enables seamless service migration with a scalable TDM over packet pseudowire engine and comprehensive multiservice support for PDH, high and low-speed data, analog voice, and Teleprotection devices.

CypherPlug
CypherPlug

CypherPlug is an SFP sleeve form factor, capable of hosting any standard MSA compatible 100M or 1GE SFPs. CypherPlug transparently envelops a large variety of SFPs, enabling full reuse of customer equipment and seamless deployment over multiple access infrastructure types, such as short-haul and long-haul fiber connections, bidirectional single-fiber links, and copper lines.

The SFP sleeve is easily pluggable into standard MSA compatible SFP ports of switches, routers, DSLAMs and mobile base stations, eliminating the use of external power and reducing space and cabling expenses.

The CypherPlug functionality is based on a powerful FPGA that enables easy customization to additional or different customer requirements.

  • End-to-end static transport mode IPSEC encryption
  • Designed for seamless protection enhancement of any existing SFP-based network device
  • Wire-speed encryption (1000 Mbps)

CypherPlug enables OpEx savings due to lower power consumption, space needs, and installation costs compared to other solutions.
