Axerra Networks, who pioneered the concept of multiservice over packet (now called Pseudo-Wires) with our unique AXN Pseudo-Wire Gateways and Access Devices, recently participated in the drafting of the Metro Ethernet Forum’s White Paper entitled “Introduction to Circuit Emulation Services over Ethernet.” As a member of the Metro Ethernet Forum and a frequent contributor to their work in defining the standards and requirements for circuit emulation services, we were pleased to lend our expertise to this informative document.

This White Paper provides an excellent introduction to Circuit Emulation Service over Ethernet (CESoE), which enables the support of synchronous services such as T1/E1 over an asynchronous Ethernet infrastructure. The paper discusses the benefits of Circuit Emulation Service over Ethernet to service providers offering Ethernet access services, as well as to the subscribers to those services in various applications. Finally, the paper discusses the current activities of the Metro Ethernet Forum in standardizing and promoting CESoE.
