Tellabs Expands its Next-gen SDH portfolio

Tellabs introduced a new high-density Ethernet-over-SDH switch that uses Layer 2 MPLS to offer true QoS for data transport. The Tellabs 6345 is a 10 Gbps multi-service provisioning platform designed to provide lower-order access, integrated Fast and Gigabit Ethernet ports and full Layer 2 switching in both metropolitan and regional networks. The Tellabs 6345 features a cross-connect capacity of 384 x STM-1 and 8,064 x VC-12, making it the most powerful and compact ADM-64 system on the market, according to Tellabs. First customer shipments are expected in Q4 2003.
