Type: News

Overture Networks, a provider of Carrier Ethernet solutions, announced that the ISG 6000 platform is a recipient of the 2011 NGN Leadership Award from Technology Marketing Corporation's (TMC) publication, NGN Magazine.

The ISG 6000, a multi-service Carrier Ethernet aggregation platform, was lauded by the magazine for its design and capabilities in accelerating the continued evolution of Carrier Ethernet infrastructures and services.
"Overture Networks has been recognized for their work in advancing NGN services and technologies," said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. "The ISG 6000 is an exceptional, transformative technology that will benefit the industry at large. Congratulations to the entire team at Overture and I look forward to seeing more of their accomplishments in the coming year."

The scalable ISG 6000 is an aggregation platform that allows service providers and network operators to meet rising service demands while extending the life and value of previous infrastructure investments. It also lays a firm foundation for the ongoing evolution in Carrier Ethernet technologies. Offering support for direct Ethernet, TDM, and SONET / SDH, it offers a means for delivering ubiquitous Carrier Ethernet service from a single aggregated platform regardless of infrastructure. The ISG 6000 also addresses carrier portfolios that include IP service offerings such as direct Internet access, VoIP, or managed router service, as well as wholesale Ethernet services.

"Overture Networks delivers solutions to service providers that help them get to market and differentiate their service offerings while decreasing operating costs, and the ISG 6000 is a great example of this," said Vijay Raman, VP, product management and marketing, Overture Networks. "By designing a Layer 2 access network using Carrier Ethernet, a service provider can actually simplify the job of their core network while still reaching all customer sites with a consistent set of Ethernet, IP and TDM services."
