EXTREME NETWORKS EXTENDS ETHERNET TO PACKET-OVER-SONET INFRASTRUCTURE Extreme Networks announced a Packet over SONET/SDH (PoS) optical services module, initially available for OC-3 and OC-12 interfaces, thereby extending Ethernet long range connectivity over traditional network infrastructures based on SONET/SDH. Extreme Networks' PoS module is designed to enable scalable bandwidth services with increases in 1 Mbps increments over both fiber and copper media. Rate-limiting functionality is mapped between Ethernet and SONET. Additional features of the PoS module include wire-speed 'netflow' for accurate accounting and billing information and policy-based traffic classification with IETF DiffServ. Integration with Extreme's MPLS solution would allow SONET-based services to be transparently delivered over MPLS networks. extremenetworks.com Extreme Networks, May 8, 2001
