Axerra Networks’ AXN10-A55 is a cost-effective, compact, customer-located Pseudo-Wire access device designed to enable cost-effective ATM-based Pseudo-Wire solutions, such as mobile voice and data backhaul over Carrier Ethernet or IP access networks.

With the AXN10-A55, service providers can convert any packet access network (Carrier Ethernet, broadband wireless including WiMAX, cable HFC, xDSL, PON, etc.) into a full-service alternative to costly leased line access and avoid multiple overaly networks. Wireline service providers are able to preserve customers' revenues from traditional services while migrating to next generation networks. Carrier Ethernet service providers are able to open up new and immediate revenue opportunities by offering profitable traditional ATM services, as well as advanced Ethernet services.

The AXN10-A55 enables ATM service emulation over Packet-Switched Networks by implementing standards-based Pseudo-Wire Emulation Edge-To-Edge (PWE3) ATM encapsulation methods. The AXN10-A55 enables those services by encapsulating ATM cells (AAL0) on a per VP, VC, or VC-bundle basis as well as ATM frame (AAL5) and transports the resulting packets over IP, MPLS, and Carrier Ethernet networks.

The AXN10-A55 Pseudo-Wire access device is available with one OC-3c/STM-1 ATM UNI port plus Fast Ethernet (FE) ports for subscribers' LAN interfaces and for network uplink interfaces. It is based on Axerra’s field-proven Multiservice over Packet (MSoP) technology and is fully interoperable with the other members of the AXN family: AXN10, AXN100, AXN800, and AXN1600, delivering the industry’s most scalable family of Pseudo-Wire gateways and access devices.
