Transition Networks to showcase broadband portfolio at Broadband World Forum

 

Transition Networks announced that it will be showcasing
its comprehensive broadband hardware portfolio at Broadband World Forum this
month, highlighting the company’s increasing presence across Europe following
the acquisition of UK-based Patapsco Communications.

 

Parent company Communications Systems, a global provider
of broadband network solutions, acquired Patapsco Designs (who trade as
Patapsco Communications) to significantly bolster Transition Networks’ position
as a leading manufacturer of broadband delivery solutions aimed at service
provider, enterprise and government networks.

 

The Patapsco acquisition adds pseudowire, also known as
TDM over IP or Circuit Emulation Services (CESoIP), and a variety of ISDN
products including ISDNoIP to Transition Networks’ portfolio and capabilities.

 

Their wide range of technology allows for the
transportation of TDM traffic over IP and Ethernet packet networks. Patapsco
has built a 20-year reputation for quality, customer support, and a focus on
delivering solutions for difficult technical challenges, such as
highly-accurate clocking and synchronization necessary for applications such as
mobile backhaul delivery via packet networks.

 

Other established products address challenging migration
issues from legacy systems to Next Generation Networks (NGNs).

 

Patapsco’s product line is a strategic addition for
Transition Networks in expanding its product offering to the service provider
market across Europe and worldwide. We are thrilled to be demonstrating these
products for the first time under the Transition Networks’ brand at Broadband
World Forum,” said Dirk Steinkampf of Transition Networks.

 

The addition of Patapsco’s technology to Transition
Networks’ portfolio allows the company to offer new and innovative
architectures for broadband delivery of both new and legacy services.

 

Paired with Transition Networks’ established portfolio of
robust carrier Ethernet products, the company will now be able to offer a wider
portfolio of flexible, cost-effective, and unique solutions for customers as
they migrate to packet-based networks.

 

Patapsco’s focus on quality and support is also a direct
fit to Transition Networks’ business model which includes customer-friendly
warranties and 24×7 customer support.

 

This acquisition continues Transition Networks strategy
to increase its global presence with products, facilities, and staff to serve
customers worldwide.  Patapsco’s offices in the UK will become the EMEA
Development office for Transition Networks, and expands its physical presence in
EMEA by adding to the warehouse and returns facility it added in the UK earlier
this year.

 

Transition Networks recently announced the Asian launch
of its new 10 Gigabit Ethernet fiber-to-fiber media converter.

 

 

The converter, which is already being trialed by a number of service providers
and is field-proven to work with the Cisco 7600 model, is designed to meet the
steady increase in network traffic that is driving service providers and
enterprise network managers to explore newer 10 Gigabit technologies.
