Title: PacketFront launches BECS 3 - the world's most advanced triple
play control and provisioning system
New
and enhanced system offers carrier-class scale and further reductions
in OPEX
PacketFront, the world leader in open access FTTH technology and next
generation broadband aggregation, has launched BECS 3, the world's most
advanced triple play control and provisioning system, at the Broadband
World Forum 2005 in Madrid.
Deployed in conjunction with PacketFront's ASR broadband routers, BECS
3 represents the industry's only purpose-built and fully automated control
and provisioning platform for large-scale carriers looking to deliver
triple play services to a mass market.
BECS 3 provides the essential functionalities for control and provisioning
of advanced services such as carrier-class TV over IP, and enables unprecedented
capacity and network scalability. The system's unique automation features
accelerate network and service deployment and provide operators with considerable
reductions in OPEX costs.
Thanks to an open and modular architecture, BECS 3 seamlessly integrates
with any legacy OSS over an all-IP infrastructure. Furthermore, in combination
with ASR 10000, BECS 3 gives network operators the flexibility to reach
end users via all types of access technologies (DSL, Wireless, Ethernet
over Coax , broadband over power lines) with one single cost-effective
solution . It is also specifically tailored to meet the demands of the
emerging open access broadband model, allowing multiple service providers
to deliver services over the same physical infrastructure -simultaneously.
Martin Thunman, CEO of PacketFront, said "PacketFront has been a
pioneer of new broadband technologies since its inception, and now we
believe that BECS 3 will provide carriers with the missing link they've
been looking for in terms of both scalable, flexible and cost-efficient
deployment and operation of broadband networks. While BECS 3 is an exceptionally
sophisticated system, operators will be attracted by the simplicity it
brings to service deployment and the huge potential reductions in OPEX
costs."
As well as being able to meet the needs for service quality and control
of all types of triple play operators, from utility companies and city
carriers to major international telcos, BECS 3 continues to uniquely offer
the ability for home users to self-provision services without the need
for time-consuming and costly premises visits.
The BECS 3 platform harnesses an innovative design to simplify and reduce
network operation costs. It is designed to meet requirements at any scale
- from small greenfield networks to large telecom operators deploying
PacketFront technology in existing networks - and is based on a scale-as-you-grow
model. BECS 3 also benefits from the support for IPv6, giving flexibility
in the management of IP addresses.
