Overview
The 6315 metro Ethernet node is a standalone unit designed for Ethernet traffic aggregation. The 6315 node complements the growing range of Fibcom Ethernet interface modules for edge and switch nodes.
The 6315 metro Ethernet node is an ideal Ethernet traffic aggregation node and ideal in use, for example, in cases where multiple Fast Ethernet connections are aggregated into Gigabit Ethernet uplinks. Using the 6315 node for traffic aggregation, service providers can maximize the use of their available fiber infrastructure and do so much more efficiently in comparison to standard bandwidth over provisioning techniques. The 6315 metro Ethernet node facilitates all sorts of Ethernet based services such as triple play (data, voice over IP, and video), enterprise Ethernet services, wholesale services, etc. Dynamic bandwidth provisioning also provides greater granularity in service offering. Small & medium sized companies can use Ethernet private lines for inexpensive connectivity between their head and branch offices – thus reducing complexity, increasing flexibility and saving money.

Dramatic Bandwidth Gains without Jeopardizing VoIP Traffic
Combinations of the 6315 node with Fibcom Ethernet over SDH portfolio represents a strong blend of cost-effective Ethernet traffic aggregation and transport through SDH networks. This combination offers managed end-to-end hard QoS from ingress to egress. The statistical gain can provide as much as 20 times bandwidth concentration, yet without jeopardizing Voice over IP (VoIP) traffic. Ethernet traffic from up to 38 end-users or customers is terminated at the 6315, and then concentrated in the 2 x Gigabit Ethernet uplinks. Simultaneous traffic policing and Pseudo-Wire (PW) MPLS (multi-protocol label switching) capability ensure adherence to individual customer Service Level Agreements (SLAs), including quality parameters such as CIR, PIR, and latency.
Wide Range of Ethernet Capabilities Provides Exceptional Performance and Flexibility
The 6315 metro Ethernet node provides two Gigabit Ethernet uplink interfaces, up to eight Gigabit Ethernet user interfaces, and up to 32 Fast Ethernet user interfaces. All interfaces are SFP pluggable for optimum flexibility. Here are just some of the other key 6315 features:
• Strict Quality of Service via physical port or VLAN
• Complete separation of customer traffic using MPLS tagging at Layer 2
• Integrated network management of the 6315 node and Fibcom Ethernet over SDH network nodes
• VLAN stacking capability, 802.1p, and IP DS awareness support a wide range of service implementation scenarios
• Rapid Spanning Tree and 1:1 LSP protection
