"Ethernet Switch Fabrics provide a low cost, standard-based architecture that eliminates the need for a separate FIC on the line card."
FocalPoint provides advanced features such as congestion management, QoS and load distribution, making it an ideal low-cost solution for high-bandwidth telecom backplane applications.
Carrier Ethernet is emerging as a standard to replace traditional SONET-SDH network backhaul equipment such as switch-routers and access systems. FocalPoint can form the backbone of these Carrier Ethernet systems.
Traditional Telecom Servers contain standard CPU blades running applications such as intrusion detection, VPN routing and spam filtering. FocalPoint provides an efficient method for distributing traffic across these CPU blades at 10G to enable full line-rate packet processing.
