Salira selects AdventNet for comprehensive management of
broadband access networks
AdventNet and Salira Penetrate the Asian Service Provider
Market with Widespread Deployment of the Salira Access Management
(SAM) System.
Pleasanton - June 30, 2003
AdventNet, the industry leading vendor of network management
frameworks and tools, and Salira Optical Network Systems,
Inc., a leading provider of optical access systems, announced
successful deployment of the Salira Access Management (SAM)
system at numerous customer locations in China. Based on AdventNet's
Web NMS framework, the system has been designed to provide
best-of-breed management capabilities for the Salira 2000
Platform. The Salira 2000 Platform is the first intelligent
Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON) access system designed
for the rigorous requirements service providers face in delivering
network services to businesses.
"AdventNet's Web NMS has enabled Salira to deliver a
robust set of integrated provisioning, element management
and maintenance applications that reduce Op Ex and enhance
carrier profitability," said Wei Gao, Salira's Chief
Technical Officer. "The partnership with AdventNet made
the introduction of the Salira Access Management (SAM) system
possible."
The SAM system provides an integrated Java-based application
for element management, service creation and subscriber management
that is independent of the server OS. SAM serves as a unified
platform and enables operators to visualize the network end-to-end
from a central management console. It enables remote provisioning,
trouble-shooting and preventive maintenance along with full
FCAPS functionality. SAM further enables smooth OSS integration
that accelerates time-to-deployment, and simplifies the typical
operational burdens associated with evolving network infrastructures.
