Zhone Technologies’ converged access platform improves network capabilities and reduces costs. Their platform allows operators to deploy premium services quickly on their existing copper and fiber infrastructure. It also provides operators a smooth path to an all Internet Protocol (IP) network. The Company achieves this with their MALC Broadband Loop Carrier. The MALC delivers voice, data, and video services over a pure packet access network. The MALC also gives carriers the flexibility to deliver triple play services over existing facilities and move these services to a pure packet network. It enables service providers to deploy a wide variety of business and residential services in a single platform.
Zhone also provides Ethernet Over Bonded Copper solutions. They provide Ethernet services to business customers. Ethernet Over Copper loop bonding technologies can deliver fiber-like bandwidth and quality over existing copper. Creating services based on seamless LAN to WAN IP connectivity with native Ethernet creates new service and revenue opportunities for the Company.
Recently, Zhone Technologies announced that Ritter Communications selected Zhone’s high-density multi-service access platform (MSAP) to support the company’s network upgrade throughout their northern Arkansas coverage area.
