Avara launches its shdsl product line for its DynaFlex Multiservice Node

Avara today announced the availability of its shdsl line cards for the DynaFlex Multiservice Platform. Two units have been announced to support functionality requested by many of Avara Rail and Utility customers. The first is an access card which allows users to connect their multiplexers to spur locations over copper to deliver 2M services using industry standard shdsl capable modems. The second is a transport card which allows DynaFlex nodes to be inter connected in linear, ring and mesh topologies to deliver protected services over copper infrastructure.

Stephen Lacey, CTO at Avara, said: "The shdsl access card provides a means of extending services such as serial data, voice and even Ethernet to remote locations in a very cost effective manner. The transport card is equally important and necessary to support the protected applications that our customers need to operate their mission critical networks."

Avara successfully demonstrates full DynaFlex to FMX-2 Interoperability to main Rail customer in Australia

Avara today demonstrated full interoperability with now end of life FMX-2 Multiplexer product from Siemens. A full battery of tests from serial data to FXS/FXO interoperability to G.703/64K co/contra directional operation were conducted with a major Rail operator in Australia, making DynaFlex a fully verified solution to maintain or replace FMX-2 deployments.

Alex Lioznov, Business Development Manager at Avara, said: "This level of interoperability gives our customers an unprecedented level of options. They can now extend their existing FMX-2 networks or replace them and they can do this at their own pace: node by node or even on a circuit by circuit basis. This will mean a significant saving in operational costs of maintaining and rebuilding FMX-2 networks."
