ONE™ recognized with TMC’s Mobility Tech Zone Visionary Award for
advancing wireless broadband services delivery
HUNTSVILLE, Ala.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 5, 2013--
ADTRAN®, Inc., (NASDAQ:ADTN), a leading
provider of next-generation networking solutions, today announced
that TMC and Crossfire Media have named ADTRAN’s Optical
Networking Edge (ONE) solution a recipient of the 2012 Mobility Tech
Zone LTE Visionary Award. Honored for developing a long term evolution
backhaul solution geared towards bridging the gap between mobile
broadband wireless and wireline, ADTRAN’s ONE allows operators to
modernize their network for new LTE services and avoid the high costs
and network complexity associated with traditional deployments.
ONE leverages packet optical networking innovation to address the
capacity bottlenecks created by the often combined aggregation of
high-bandwidth services from homes, businesses and cell sites. With the
ability to bridge the gap between network access and transport, ONE
allows service providers to leverage their existing network assets by
extending the bandwidth efficiencies of the core to the optical edge,
metro and middle-mile. By combining wavelength, Ethernet and OTN
switching separation with a web-based service level agreement (SLA)
monitoring tool, each type of traffic can be guaranteed and provisioned
over a common network infrastructure as needed with ONE. Additionally,
the scalable, compact Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer
(mini-ROADM) system-on-a-blade, provides service providers with more
operational flexibility that is essential for cost effectively
responding to shifts in traffic and capacity demands throughout their
networks.
“ADTRAN has optimized its packet optical technology in order to redefine
service delivery and aggregation; essentially blurring the boundaries
between access and transport,” said Mano Nachum, packet optical
solutions product line manager for ADTRAN’s Carrier Networks Division.
“ADTRAN’s innovation is focused on further right-sizing core packet
optical technology and uniquely differentiating the products to address
current and future services, while speeding up time-to-revenue,
eliminating complexity, simplifying operations and reducing overall
costs.”
“It is a pleasure to recognize ADTRAN with this award. Their
contribution toward the future of mobile broadband is noteworthy,”
stated Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. “I look forward to more innovation from
ADTRAN in the future.”
