GDC's Xedge 6000 Time Independent Data IV is a bit-transparent, serial-data-over-packet solution that combines clock recovery and wide area transport over private or public networks. The Xedge
TID-4 is ideally suited for the isochronous and non-standard baud rate communication of DoD, MoD, Aerospace, Transportation, or specialized commercial networks.

The TID-4 maintains the clock/data relationship in critical commercial or government applications, such as Telemetry and unidirectional data transport, as well as satellite circuits that are asymetric due to up.downlink bandwidth differences.

TID-4 Key Features:

• Provides interworking between systems that are timed independent of the transport network.
• Supports a variety of tranport interfaces and protocols.
• Allows per port configuration to standard and non-standard data rates from 2.4Kbps to 10 Mbps.
• Supports Ethernet, MPLS-Pseudowire or ATM transmission over a satellite facility.
• Supports simplex, duplex and asymmetric operations.
• Managed via SNMP or via GDC's ProSphere Network Management System

Hybrid Switching Solutions

GDC provides hybrid switching solutions for the WAN -- an approach to evolving real multiservice networks that recognizes the business values of established technology solutions along side the capabilities of more recently introduced communications platforms. That is why its latest switching platform, the Packet Cell Switch (PCx) offers a dual control plane for both Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM).

There are many advantages to the GDC approach, not the least of which is the assurance that GDCs superior traffic management technology is available for flow sensitive Quality of Service for multiservice voice, video and data over packet or multi-tier traffic shaping over ATM switching solutions. The PCx also harmonizes native services (TDM, Frame Relay, ATM, and Ethernet) in a scaleable switching platform with a breadth of interfaces unparalled in the industry.

Of special interest in the evolution of multiservice WAN is the rising demand for Ethernet services. The PCx and the Xedge Multiservice Packet Xchange support both private Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) E-Line and E-LAN services. This includes support gigabit Ethernet access and trunking as well as OCx transport) and an array of other standards-based service support. The PCx and the Xedge MSPx are fully compatible with other product offerings which underlines GDCs aim to deliver end to end, integrated solutions for its customers.
