Hatteras
Networks carrier class Ethernet service delivery Product Family enables
service providers to deliver broadband services to businesses over the
existing last-mile, copper infrastructure. Hatteras' Ethernet access
and transport systems allow service providers to fully leverage the
benefits of offering data, voice over IP, and video services over an
Ethernet network. With a low initial cost and plug-and-play
installation, the product family easily scales from point-to-point
applications to multi-point applications serving hundreds of customers
from a single wiring center (Central Office, Remote Terminal, Pole, or
Vault). While other systems offer transport and aggregation
functions, the Hatteras Product Family’s flexible architecture provides
the industry’s first hardened, multi-service Ethernet system designed
for the access. Hatteras products allow multiple services per port
using our patented VLAN product architecture to provide both E-Line and
E-LAN services as defined by the Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF). With this
feature, Hatteras systems offer true Quality-of-Service going beyond
the simple Class-of-Service solutions others offer today. In
cases where maximum port density is required, Hatteras' patented
Virtual Node enables service providers to deploy multiple load-sharing
systems as a single managed entity. Unlike other vendor offerings, our
VN is managed as a single node providing a fully redundant architecture
and industry leading port density. In summary, Hatteras Networks systems provide the following benefits: - Completely standards-based and spectrally compatible solutions
- Complete Quality-of-Service rather than simple class-of-service solutions
- Complete business-grade resiliency rather than a semi-redundant system
- Complete carrier-grade OAM on an Ethernet network
- Ultra-compact, front access products with industry leading port density per rack unit
- Full temperature hardening for versatile deployment
- Plug-and-play turn up of services (ask for a live demo at your location), reduces OPEX and time to revenue
- Patented
VLAN-aware product architecture enabling multiple services per physical
connection, with a smooth migration from tag stacking to MPLS
- Sharing of single or multiple network uplinks across hundreds of customers
- Distributed
bonding of copper pairs across multiple units for ultimate business
class resiliency, simplified pair management, and no stranded ports
- Robust
architecture preventing any single points of system failure using
redundant, Virtual Node interconnections with distributed management
control agents
With
Hatteras' Product Family, service providers can economically grow their
product offerings from a cost-effective point-to-point single service
to larger, point-to-multipoint deployments with multiple service
offerings. The illustrations below demonstrate how the Hatteras Product
Family economically supports growth while efficiently adding services. The
figure below demonstrates a low-cost alternative for delivering
broadband services at the fringes of the customer service area (CSA)
using the HN400 series of products. This application is ideal for areas
where growth is minimal or in test markets where service demand has yet
to be proven.

following illustration demonstrates how an HN4000 can be added after a
success-based carrier approach to marketing is achieved and there is
clear demand for high-density applications from a single wiring center
(Central Office, Remote Terminal, Pole, or Vault).

customer demand grows, the HN4000 VN addresses the additional demand
for connectivity from a wiring center by seamlessly integrating
multiple HN4000 systems into one virtual node. Demonstrating even more
versatility, the HN4000 and HN4000 VN can also be deployed in remote
terminal applications as shown below.
