Meanwhile, a new Linux-based router from the combined Nbase and Xyplex divisions of MRV Communications takes the notion of carrier empowerment a step further. NRV's OSR8040 router bears the Open2 moniker, which Nbase-Xyplex chief executive Phillippe Szwarc said refers to two degrees of openness: the software programmability of a Linux platform and an open cell-based switching fabric that can scale from 40 to 160 Gbits/second while letting carriers optimize bandwidth usage for their network applications. Nbase-Xyplex is also recruiting third-party software developers to write the platform, Szwarc said.
