Description:

G7860A supports both MPLS-TP and Carrier Ethernet (EPL, EVPL, EPLAN, EVC defined in MEF) for packet transportation. In addition to native Ethernet transport, G7860A can be used as the gateway for PDH and SDH/SONET networks to enter PSNs using Circuit Emulation and Encapsulation technologies. Encapsulation technologies include TDMoE, TDMoIP, and TDMoMPLS. Circuit Emulation include CESoPSN (NxDS0/64K), SAToP (Unframed E1/T1), and CEP (SDH/SONET paths). Pseudowires make grooming and multiplexing DS0, E1/T1, and SDH/SONET paths easier, and service integrity can also be monitored and protected via packet network protection schemes.
