MANSFIELD, MA – May 4, 2011 - Telco Systems, a BATM company (LSE: BVC) and provider of multi-service Carrier Ethernet access and demarcation solutions, has been chosen by K-PowerNet to provide the demarcation solution for their mobile backhaul network serving northeast Oklahoma and southwest Missouri.
The T-Marc 3208SH is specifically designed for cell site deployment and can operate effectively in temperatures ranging from -40° to 158°F (-40 to 70C). It supports a full complement of OAM tools which allows K-PowerNet to monitor end-to-end services, identify connectivity and performance issues and isolate any problems from a remote location.
K-PowerNet utilizes 2500 miles of fiber optic cabling to provide data services to service providers and businesses. Acting as a wholesale provider, they also sell excess capacity to other carriers and ISPs and offer bandwidth profiles up to 10G. They offer virtual leased line services that support both voice and data as well as MPLS services.
K-PowerNet plans to migrate all of their existing Ethernet services to the MPLS network which is designed to be extremely scalable capable of supporting hundreds of services and customers at very high bandwidth. In addition they plan to move some of the data services and video conferencing they offer to other utilities onto the MPLS network as well.
Telco Systems designs, manufactures and markets multi-service Ethernet edge solutions which enable service providers to migrate their services from a circuit-based network to a more cost effective packet network. These solutions support voice, video and data traffic over the Ethernet edge network to create a high degree of reliability, service assurance and guaranteed service quality for both business and residential customers. By implementing intelligence in these edge network solutions, Telco Systems enables carriers to differentiate their services, transform the user experience and lower their overall operating expense.
