ETX-201

Carrier Ethernet Demarcation Device

RAD's ETX-201 Carrier Ethernet demarcation device is installed at the customer premises to transport Ethernet traffic over fiber access.

Part of RAD’s unique EtherAccess^® portfolio, the ETX-201 Carrier Ethernet demarcation device employs a service-targeted design to enable EPL (Ethernet private line) services with standard Carrier Ethernet attributes per MEF (Metro Ethernet Forum)-9 and MEF-14 specifications. These include Ethernet OAM features for proactive quality-of-service (QoS) and SLA (service level agreement) monitoring over the entire service path, as well as remote management of differentiated services with traffic classification and prioritization – all starting at the service hand-off points.
