It also has advanced security to protect the edge of the network and the ability to interoperate with core network security protocols. The LE-135B’s advanced hardware design combined with LE-OS and Mediatrix support enables the device to deliver triple play features and a wide range of critical business and residential services.
“World Wide Packets’ LightningEdge platform provides customers with the scalable and flexible triple play services they require to cost effectively expand their service offerings to subscribers,” said Marc Skinner, Director of Sales – Americas for Mediatrix. “In an ever increasing competitive landscape for service providers, we anticipate the combined offering will provide them with several distinct advantages from a cost, performance and integration perspective.”
