BATM's Telco Systems Adds 100GE Capabilities

New Aggregation and ATCA solutions to meet ever-increasing demand for bandwidth

BATM Advanced Communications Limited (LSE: BVC), a leading provider of real-time technologies for networking solutions and medical laboratory systems, announces that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Telco Systems, has added 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GE) capabilities to its switching platform solutions to address the increasing demand for bandwidth due to growing traffic across telecom networks.

By providing 100GE capabilities, Telco Systems will help service providers to continue to reduce both operational expenditure and capital expenditure. Telco Systems' new 100GE platforms use the industry-leading QSFP28 technology, which brings lowest cost per bandwidth, and will allow service providers to gradually phase out legacy dark fiber WDM-based transport layer.

Telco Systems has released two solutions with 100GE capabilities: the T-Metro 8100 and T-ATCA 510:

· The T-Metro 8100 is designed for service providers that need high reliability and flexibility to aggregate multiple services over 1GE, 10GE and 100GE port rates in a metro Ethernet environment.

· Telco Systems has also launched a new 100GE AdvancedTCA switch blade, the T-ATCA 510, which enables the rapid development of mission critical telecom applications, including LTE evolved packet core, IP-based multimedia services and metro Ethernet aggregation service routing. The T-ATCA 510 is also SDN-enabled.

Zvi Marom, Chief Executive Officer of BATM, said: "These are exciting times for the networking industry and we are proud to be at the forefront of developing important new innovations to help telcos improve performance and provide better services. Our approach to 100GE access overcomes the drawbacks of alternative attempts to expand access and will help meet the ever-increasing demand for more bandwidth and the constant need to reduce total cost of ownership."

Telco Systems will be exhibiting the T-Metro 8100 and T-ATCA 510 at the Big Communications Event in Austin, Texas at booth number 200 from 24 - 25 May and at CommunicAsia 2016 in Singapore at booth number 6 in the Israeli Pavilion from 31 May - 3 June.
