Broadband Access

Starcom offers a complete line of Carrier Ethernet (CE) switches, aggregation and demarcation devices. The MEF- certified Carrier Ethernet 2.0 product line can be used to deliver E-Line, E-LAN, E-Tree, and E-Access services.

These services can provide end-to-end SLA and QoS monitoring and full service performance visibility as well as OAM, CFM, multi-CoS and other carrier-grade Ethernet protocols.

Typically used to provide SLAs and service assurance for business services, CE2.0 products are vital for demarcation between service providers.
