Solid Information Technology (booth #53015) announces the release of version 4.5K of its carrier-grade data management platform. Solid version 4.5K is a failover-transparent link that optimizes version 4.5K for carrier-grade production environments. A new feature called CarrierGrade Connection uses Solid's own drivers to retain the connection handle between applications and databases after failover/switchover — thus avoiding time-consuming application tasks such as error-processing and determining the IP address of the new primary DB. The addition of CarrierGrade Connection to Solid's version 4.5K platform results in the shortest failover/switchover times in the industry.

TANDBERG Television (booth #24053) will display its high-definition products for MPEG-4 AVC and Windows Media Video 9. The company's EN5990 MPEG-4 AVC and EN5980 Windows Media Video 9 (VC-1) HD encoders, both based on its groundbreaking HD Intelligent Compression Engine (ICE), achieve real-time delivery of outstanding high-definition images at substantially lower bit-rates than MPEG-2 compression — potentially doubling capacity compared to the previous MPEG-2 telco video model of sending two channels into the home. TANDBERG Television will show separate MPEG-4 AVC and Windows Media Video 9 (VC-1) multi-channel IPTV encoding solutions for TV over DSL. The live demonstrations will show how telcos can truly compete with cable operators today by using advanced compression to send multiple channels into the home and feed multiple TV sets.

Tollgrade (booth #57000) introduces the DigiTest HUB next generation central office test platform for both emerging broadband and legacy network testing.

The DigiTest HUB is designed to support multiple testing and network assurance scenarios by retaining the interfaces to legacy equipment while providing testability to subscribers served on next generation network elements. The DigiTest HUB is a modular, 12-slot chassis for medium-to-large CO applications where a variety of services emanate. Plug-in modules can be added, as required, to support POTS, DSL Layer 1-7 and specials testing. Test plug-in resources can be shared to multiple network elements by the use of a module that multiplexes the test access path. This includes sharing a test resource to remote access elements as fiber is driven further out into the network in topologies such as FTTx.
