Connecting People

Breakthrough technologies that are integral to 5G, such as Massive MIMO, network slicing, beamforming and network function virtualization (NFV) necessitate phased approaches to 5G deployment, as well as significant investment, with telecom companies expected to spend upwards of $300 billion on 5G network deployment over the next decade. This monumental task lends itself to a wide variety of strategies and options, each with inherent benefits and drawbacks.

How a Single Score can Identify and Resolve End-User Experience Issues

Empower network engineers to more simply investigate problems and resolve them more swiftly to everyone’s satisfaction. Whether your ‘end user’ is a person or an application, when they experience issues it often results in network engineers having to piece together information from a variety of sources and metrics to try and work out what exactly the user experienced and who the owner of their problem really is. It feels like nine times out of ten it’s the network that unfairly gets the blame!

Mellanox Ethernet Switches

Not all switches are created equal... So what makes the difference? The real difference between all switch manufacturers is the ASIC (switch silicon). Most manufacturers rely on merchant silicon from companies such as a Broadcom*. This is where we think Mellanox Spectrum is different; Mellanox offers a game-changing ASIC that can transform your network and supercharge your data centre.

Pluggable 100G/200G multiprotocol, multirate, multireach muxponder with twenty multiprotocol SFP+ client ports. Multiple configuration options (20 x 10G; 2 x 40G + 12 x 10G; 4 x 40G + 4 x 10G). Single integrated coherent FlexRate 100G/200G line port with DynaFEC and SD FEC.

Alien Wavelengths – WDM & DWDM

Find out how quick and easy it is to use Alien Wavelengths on top of your DWDM network to increase your bandwidth. An “alien” wavelength is any wavelength that originates on networking equipment that is not the same as the equipment used in the optical line system. It can be from a different type of equipment such as a router with colored optics connected to an optical line system even if they are both from the same vendor.

What's New?

We’ve recently refreshed our website, and we hope that you will find the changes to be a big improvement. We’ve worked hard to make it easier to navigate the site, and to find exactly what you need from among our vast and diverse range of products.

Missing e-commerce?

One thing that we’ve not carried over from the previous site at this time is the facility to order online for a select range of our products, which you may have been used to in the past. “Off-the-shelf” items represent a small part of our product range; most often a purchase requires a more in-depth discussion between our sales team and the customer to match the right product to the user’s application. For this reason we have focussed on making it as easy as possible to contact our sales team to request a quotation.

Please rest assured that we will get back to you with pricing promptly, and will work with you to make sure the products you buy are exactly what you need. Once you’re ready to order, our sales team will work through the process with you, to make it as seamless as possible.
