Sunrise Telecom to Demonstrate ITU-T Y.1564 Ethernet Service Activation Solution at EANTC European Interoperability Event

SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunrise Telecom® Incorporated (OTC: SRTI) today announced the company's participation at the Carrier Ethernet interoperability event at the Carrier Ethernet World Congress (CEWC) 2011, organized by European Advanced Networking Test Center (EANTC).  The company will showcase Intellisam™, its full implementation of the ITU-T Y.1564 Carrier Ethernet Service Activation standard.

IntelliSAM provides the key procedures required to test, troubleshoot and accept today's sophisticated Carrier Ethernet services. With these procedures, service providers can demonstrate proper service configuration and performance from User Network Interface (UNI) to UNI, giving total confidence that the SLA will be met according to the bandwidth profile purchased and the promised class of service. These efficient procedures save technicians' time while making sure that all the problems are eliminated from service before it is handed over to the customer, enhancing the customer experience and reducing customer churn. They are a huge step forward from procedures previously used, and should be deployed in the network as rapidly as possible. Sunrise Telecom introduced the industry's first full Y.1564 bandwidth profile test configuration capability, ensuring service providers and Carrier Ethernet users that services meet performance objectives for both bursty and continuous-rate traffic.

Sunrise Telecom will participate in the multi-vendor Interoperability Showcase organized by the EANTC at the CEWC 2011 in Amsterdam, October 11-13, 2011.  The 18 vendors participating in the test include: Albis Technologies, Aviat Networks, Brocade, Calnex Solutions, ECI Telecom, Ericsson, Extreme Networks, Hitachi, Ixia, Linkra Networks, NEC, Nokia Siemens Networks, Rhode & Schwarz, Siklu Communications, Spirent Communications, Sunrise Telecom, Symmetricom, and Veryx Technologies.

The vendors will showcase a single interoperable multi-vendor Carrier Ethernet network supporting MEF-defined business services and mobile backhaul solutions. The showcase will demonstrate the results of a two-week hot-staging at EANTC including mobile backhaul synchronization, Ethernet OAM implementations and high availability protocols. The tests will validate the interoperability of different transport technologies including MPLS-TP solutions and PBB-TE/VPLS interworking. In addition, a range of microwave solutions will be tested in a Carrier Ethernet services context. Additional information can be found at http://www.eantc.com/cewc2011
