                         IP Services Implementation on an Optical MAN

Solution Provider: The Quarry Technologies

The Business Challenge: An Optical MAN service provider to deliver IP services to corporate and small business customers residing in multi-tenant units and industrial parks. The Optical MAN service providers are threatened by the competition and fear that their current high-speed Internet access will become a commodity unless they offer value added services.

The Opportunity: Optical MAN service providers to offer full complement of IP services to their clients.

The Quarry Technologies Solution: The Optical MAN service providers are to deploy the Quarry Technologies IP Services Edge Switch, iQ4000, at each of its POPs and large aggregation sites. This solution will help the service providers to offer advanced IP services, like application level QOS, Virtual Private Networks, advanced security services without impacting existing infrastructure.
