Gigabit Ethernet Interface Module

The Aranea-1 is a backbone terabit router designed for the core of the Internet, featuring a powerful carrier-class networking system. Seamlessly integrating cell and packet based traffic with a rich set of QoS tools, it is the ultimate platform for integrating Voice, Multimedia and data networks.

The module features non-blocking wire-rate throughput on all ports. A total of 128 GE ports can be installed on a single Aranea-1 chassis. In addition, it provides unprecedented advanced filtering capabilities. The GE Interface offers a cost-effective solution for dramatically expanding connectivity to core and edge routers and switches, Gigabit networks and host server farms.

The Aranea-1 network processor technology handles millions of traffic flows, offering the means to analyze, monitor, control and forward data for billing applications. The router is a true multi-service system, enabling not only IP and ATM services, but also TDM circuit emulation and cross-connect functionality. The solutions give precise, predictable and measurable information about the quality of service (QoS) guaranty being delivered. This enables service providers to ensure unmatched reliable services and unlimited capabilities for future growth.
