Occam lets slip details of new gear
more on the topic
Details of a new, unannounced product appeared temporarily this week on the Web site of Occam Networks.
Listed among the blades for Occam’s 6000 broadband loop carrier platform earlier this week was the 6450, which enables 10 Gb/s Ethernet links for access aggregation rings and business Ethernet services.
According to the product’s data sheet, each one-rack-unit 6450 blade includes four 10-GbE ports (two optical, two copper) and 22 1-GbE ports (16 optical and six 10/100/1000X copper). That represents a step up in capacity from Occam’s 6440-01 Optical Packet Transport blade, which offers 10 1-GbE ports. In fact, it’s closer in scale to the 6314 Optical Packet Transport blade Occam introduced a year ago, which also has four 10-GbE ports (two optical, two copper) and 22 1-GbE ports (16 optical and six 10/100/1000X copper).
The page detailing the 6450 was removed from Occam’s site Wednesday. An Occam spokesperson told Telephony the posting had been “a mistake.”
“The webmaster posted it too early,” she said.popular articles
