DZS Launches XCelerate by DZS, a New Line of 10 Gig-Class Fiber Access Cards and Systems that Redefine Network Evolution Economics - Seite 2

“XCelerate by DZS represents a true technology breakthrough in the industry – enabling service providers to leverage each port in a new line of fixed form factor and small and large chassis systems to serve a variety of 10 gig-class services, depending on the needs of the end users,” said Miguel Alonso, Vice President of Global Product Management at DZS. “Furthermore, our unique ‘system-on-a-card’ innovation enables a non-blocking architecture for an unimpeded leap to not only multi-gigabit services, but also the ability to evolve seamlessly to a disaggregated, software-driven architecture with ease while leveraging the same systems. This combination can be game-changing for service providers and the economics and timing of their network transformation, allowing them the flexibility to evolve at their own pace, and even accelerate if and when necessary, without having to replace hardware along the way. We believe that this blows away estimated cost savings of 50% and higher often attributed to traditional combo cards as XCelerate by DZS class systems can support multi-gigabit on any port and transformation to disaggregated architectures in the same systems and are not aware of any other access vendors offering this level of versatility and value.”

The next generation XCelerate by DZS line was designed to achieve the highest-performance – high capacity, low latency, unrivaled flexibility and openness. While traditional combo card approaches claim savings of more than 50% in CAPEX, power and space, and significant extensions network asset lifespan, these solutions are only addressing part of the evolutionary challenge. Service providers that already have point-to-point architectures or that have prescriptive SLAs with key customers may need the flexibility to offer dedicated gigabit and multi-gigabit services, and should not be required to deploy separate specialized equipment to meet these needs. Additionally, most service providers recognize the value of open and disaggregated architectures and aspire to move to these models in the future. XCelerate by DZS class systems can support this transformation in the same deployed hardware, and do not require a future forklift upgrade like other vendors. Fifty percent savings for service providers deploying XCelerate by DZS solutions are just a starting point, and we believe network asset lifespan extensions are prolonged from a typical 3-5 years to beyond the foreseeable future.
