Huawei Demonstrates IP/MPLS and MPLS-TP Interoperability in EANTC's Tests

During testing, Huawei's PTN series and CX600 router series, including CX600-X1/X2, the industry's first 300mm depth metro service platform, performed successfully in the areas of mobile backhaul capabilities and flexibility. Huawei's IP Transport Infrastructure for Multi-play Experience (IPTime) solution, CX600 and PTN were shown to be advanced in clock synchronization, end-to-end network protection, and IP visualized operations.

Carsten Rossenhoevel, managing director of EANTC, speaks highly of Huawei's participation in the interoperability tests, announcing that Huawei has been actively participating in the EANTC multi-vendor interoperability tests for years. This time, we are happy to see that Huawei joined our showcase with three product types including the new CX600-X1/X2. Huawei's products successfully participated in a wide range of interoperability tests with other vendors in both the IP/MPLS and the MPLS-TP domains.

Our successful performance on the interoperability tests demonstrates the state-of-the-art nature of Huawei's routers. As part of Huawei's All-IP convergence strategy, these solutions offer top video quality, and will allow operators to achieve multi-services operation, simplify their operations, administration and maintenance, and lower operating costs, stated Mr. Hu Kewen, President of Carrier IP Product Line, Huawei.

The EANTC interoperability tests were based on the Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF), International Telecommunications Union (ITU-T), Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and IEEE standards, and focused on mobile backhaul, converged transport, network operations and protection, with scenarios that focused on IP/MPLS and MPLS-TP technologies.
