Aricent's Intelligent Switching Solution (ISS) has been tested and deployed in the field on Broadcom’s StrataXGS Ethernet Switch to provide a carrier-grade mobile backhaul solution. The framework can render  Layer 2 and VLAN switching, Layer 3 routing, multiprotocol label switching (MPLS), MPLS-TP, provider backbone bridging (PBB), operations, administration and management (OAM), protection, timing, and synchronization features to help equipment vendors build next generation carrier grade mobile backhaul solutions, while reducing time-to-market and development costs. 

“In today’s highly competitive network equipment landscape, equipment manufacturers are faced with delivering high performance products at reduced costs,” said Sridhar Raju, Assistant Vice President and Wireline Business Practice Head at Aricent. “The complexity of capabilities, standards, and interoperability must be addressed in order to introduce carrier grade products. Our collaboration with Broadcom aims to achieve this.”

“The proven commercial success of Aricent’s ISS framework and Broadcom’s StrataXGS Switch underscore the benefits that equipment manufacturers will receive when leveraging this joint time-to- market solution for developing mobile backhaul solutions,” said Srinivasan Balaji, Senior Product Line Manager of StrataXGS/Core Switching at Broadcom.
