Spirent to Provide Service Quality Management for Zhone's Local Access Architecture

Spirent Communications and Zhone Technologies announced a strategic interoperability agreement designed to ensure service quality management (SQM) in the access network. Spirent’s REACT remote test operations support system (OSS) is matched with Zhone’s ARCA-DACS 100 and SECHTOR 300 products, two digital access, cross-connect (DCS) and universal gateway systems for grooming and concentrating voice and data traffic before it hits the transport network. Last year, Spirent significantly expanded its interoperability partnership program, which now includes optical edge devices, DSLAMs, digital cross-connects, ADMs, Frame Relay switches, ATM switches, ISDN switches, voice switches, routers, and voice/media gateways from nearly two dozen manufacturers.
