TELLABS INTRODUCES NEW IP ACCESS PACKAGE FOR MARTISDXX(TM) SYSTEM IP ACCESS PACKAGE ENABLES SERVICE PROVIDERS TO PROVIDE MULTIPLE BUSINESS Services Over One Platform LISLE, Ill., Sep 22, 1999 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Tellabs (Nasdaq: TLAB) today announced the availability of the IP Access Package, which enables service providers to offer IP-based data services over the MartisDXX platform and manage them under one network management system. Business service providers can use the Tellabs IP Access Package to broaden their existing product portfolio to offer IP-based services, such as managed Internet access, secure LAN-interconnect services, corporate intranets, and native IP services. With the IP Access Package, all of these services can be managed with the MartisDXX Manager (network and services management system) and delivered to customers over one access line. The MartisDXX provides operators with a migration path from the current time-division multiplexed (TDM)-based service platforms to next-generation data communications access platforms through an integrating network and services management system. "The unique modular structure of the MartisDXX system allows service providers to easily and cost effectively migrate to the IP service environment," said Jukka Harju, vice president and general manager of Tellabs Oy. "The IP Access Package enables them to use their existing infrastructure to quickly deploy new IP-based services." The Tellabs MartisDXX managed access and transport network system is currently deployed in more than 160 networks in over 60 countries worldwide, providing intelligent transport for mobile services and multi-service platforms for a broad range of business services, including LAN interconnect, digital leased line, frame relay and PBX interconnection.
