Carrier Ethernet Carrier-class Ethernet enables service providers to leverage the ubiquity of Ethernet to provide service scalability, end-to-end service level agreements (SLAs), performance and fault management, bandwidth efficiency, and support for multiple services that will differentiate them in a very competitive market.
Ethernet's adoption by global data-communications service providers, enterprises and the home networking market has spurred its evolution into a more complex technology. Beneficial new features, increased speed, capacity and power have raised questions of proper usability and service delivery for network operators. The standards and protocols for deploying and supporting carrier Ethernet services are being written by the ITU-T, IETF and IEEE. These same protocols can be easily used to support carrier Ethernet services as defined by Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF).
Telco Systems use of industry-standard engineering protocols to effectively deploy carrier Ethernet services provides a practical blueprint for service providers looking to bridge the gap between today's Ethernet/Legacy deployments and tomorrow's carrier-Ethernet services. T-Marc® 280 Series Ethernet Service Demarcation Solution Enlarge  The T-Marc® 280 is an intelligent, remotely-managed demarcation devices which has been purpose-built to integrate networking, testing and assurance capabilities. Like other members of the T-Marc family, the T-Marc 280 supports advanced Layer 2 networking using Telco Systems' AccessEthernet® technology to allow total flexibility in deployment, provisioning, and delivery of Carrier Ethernet services.
Two tri-speed customer access ports enable providers to support two separate customers on a single device. The second access port may also be used to create a DMZ (demilitarized zone or data management zone) to separate external (public) traffic from the customer’s internal network. Each access port supports a single EVC and UNI with four traffic classes. Dual network uplinks include an SFP-based fiber and a combo tri-speed/fiber port. The dual network ports provide a rich set of protection options, including link aggregation, resilient, link, and Spanning Tree protocols.
Standards-based Ethernet OAM features include IEEE 802.3ah link OAM, IEEE 802.1ag connectivity fault management, and ITU-T Y.1731 fault and performance monitoring for end-to-end Ethernet services. Physical and virtual networking capabilities provide automated address management and discovery, bandwidth profiles, advanced traffic classes, and complete control over how subscriber traffic is transported across a service provider’s network.
