Supporting up to 2.4Gbps line speed, the new Sun OC48 Packet Over Sonet Adapter opens the door to unparalleled network bandwidth and reliability by connecting Sun servers directly to OC48 RPR networks. Sun OC48 Packet Over Sonet Adapter allows companies to deploy a wealth of revenue-producing and cost-saving applications. Companies experiencing performance limitations with their existing LAN/MAN network backbones can easily migrate to OC48 to gain increased performance and reliability for mission-critical applications at a low cost. By supporting direct server connections to an OC48 RPR network, the Sun adapter allows ISPs and data service providers to reduce port counts and minimize space needed for equipment in web hosting, caching and proxying applications, resulting in lower costs. Other high-value benefits include increased network availability, enhanced traffic routing, and faster delivery of readily accessible data. Sun OC48 Packet Over Sonet Adapter is designed to meet industry standards such as Spatial Reuse Protocol (SRP) and Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP). This interoperability protects your investment while ensuring a smooth migration and low total cost of ownership.
