OcularIP™, the industry’s leading SLA customer portal, allows carriers to choose from technologies that represent over 85% of the installed carrier Ethernet market.
September 20, 2013 Orlando, FL — Local Backhaul Networks announced today that 100 technologies are now supported in the OcularIP SLA assurance and reporting portal. These technologies include carrier Ethernet technologies manufactured by industry leaders such as Adva (ADV.DE), Alcatel-Lucent (ALU), Accedian, BTI Systems, Cisco (CSCO), Fujitsu (FJTSY), Overture, Omnitron, and Telco Systems (BC.L), among others. “Based upon demand from our clients, we are able to leverage OcularIP’s open standards-based architecture to integrate and support these technologies,” stated Raymond Chiu, CTO of Local Backhaul Networks. “Service providers have relationships with many manufacturers and want to be positioned to leverage new technologies, therefore it is important that we grow our partnerships with industry leaders.”
OcularIP is the first IP circuit performance monitoring and reporting portal to leverage MEF standards, including Y1731 and RFC2544. “The open architecture of OcularIP enables the rapid integration and certification of technologies from most manufacturers,” states Robert Kittner, VP Sales of Local Backhaul. “Our Performance Connect™ API offering allows quick and easy integration with other systems, platforms and applications such as SDN or customer-enabled provisioning. Examples include ALU’s SAM, BTI’s proNX Systems and OSS platforms such as Remedy and Granite. Unlike other performance portals, with OcularIP, carriers can leverage their investment in their entire infrastructure to meet business Ethernet and Tier1 cell providers’ SLA mandates and differentiate themselves from competition.”
The new OcularIP capabilities add to an already impressive list of functionality supported by the system. Operators typically offer a multitude of services that utilize an assortment of technologies, representing substantial outlays in capital and operational assets. OcularIP’s status as an independent solutions provider means true, open multi-vendor support allowing operators to build on their technology investment.
