- CAPACITY, PERFORMANCE AND SCALABILITY: The SkyFlux products feature full-duplex switching fabric reaching extreme switching capacity of up to 28.8Tbps. The products support high-capacity interfaces up to 400GE including Native Ethernet, FlexE DWDM and FlexE
- EFFICIENT TUNNELING MECHANISMS: The solution implements Segment Routing technology that provides efficient and flexible packet forwarding, at the same time reducing network complexity (states only maintained at the edge of networks, no complicated distributed protocols like LDP and RSVP-TE). The solution provides support also of MPLS-TP technology for backward compatibility with NetRIng metro transport networks
- WIDE RANGE OF SERVICES: L2 VPN (E-LINE/VPWS, E-LAN/VPLS, E-TREE/VPLS), L3 VPN (L3 VPN for IPV4, L3 VPN for IPV6), L2/L3VPN bridge, EVPN*, Point to Point Ethernet service over FlexE (CBR)
- COMPREHENSIVE NETWORK SLICING: hard network slicing based on FlexE Group TDM multiplexing and/or FlexE/G.mtn Cross-Connect, and soft network slicing based on Segment Routing Policies and VPN services
- LOW-LATENCY FORWARDING based on FlexE /G.mtn Cross-Connect mechanism that forwards the traffic directly between FlexE clients bypassing the switching function. This enables extra low-latency forwarding with minimum delay variation virtually independent of the frame size
- EXCELLENT TIMING ACCURACY: The provides support of IEEE1588v2 PTP and SyncE technologies on all interfaces, including native Ethernet and Flex Ethernet. Operating as a PTP T-BC, the SkyFlux platform products can reach accuracy up to TE<5ns
- RESILIENCE: The SkyFlux platform supports strong hardware redundancy with hot-swappable components to ensure uninterrupted device operation. High service availability and minimal service disruptions on sub-50ms level are ensured through use of OAM-based failure detection and various protection mechanisms that work on different levels: FlexE, SR, MPLS-TP, PW, L3VPN
- OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY: Centralized control and network operation via the Integrated Control and Management platform SOO Station, SDN-based automation, zero-touch provisioning, strong OAM features – all of it adds up into a comprehensive yet simple network and service control resulting in reduced efforts, costs, and time of network deployment, operation, and service provisioning
