CM-4140 Selected A Winner In Carrier Ethernet Switch Category
Orckit-Corrigent announced today that Network Products Guide, industry’s
leading publication on information technologies and solutions, has named
the CM-4140 product, a winner of the 2009 Product Innovation Award. This
annually venerated award recognizes and honors vendors from all over the
world with innovative and ground-breaking products that are bringing
essential and incremental changes and are setting the bar higher for
others in all areas of information technology.
CM-4140 is a Layer 2 MPLS Carrier Ethernet + Transport (CE+T) switch
highly optimized for 1st layer aggregation mainly due to its
cost efficiency, high port density, small from factor and low power
consumption. In addition, the CM-4140 supports wide set of transport
features, including the ability to deliver both Ethernet, PDH (E1/T1)
and SDH (STM-1/4/16) services over packet–based networks, and enables
gradual migration of the existing SONET/SDH networking infrastructure to
a next generation Carrier Ethernet networks.
CM-4140 is the first product to introduce standard and interoperable
Layer 2 MPLS at the metro edge network domain, and the first to
introduce high switching capacity of 168Gbps at small 3RU footprint with
minimized power consumption. Thus, CM-4140 is breaking the MPLS
cost-performance paradigm. To read more about this product innovation,

“Innovation is clearly an important factor for greater success and has
the most impact on staying competitive," says Rake Narang,
editor-in-chief of Network Products Guide. “Innovative products such as
CM-4140 are bringing improvements in telecommunication service
providers’ abilities to extend Layer 2 MPLS technology to the access
edge and smoothly migrate legacy TDM services, in a cost-optimized
Carrier Ethernet network.”
“We are proud to receive Network Products Guide’s product innovation
award and recognition in our CM-4140 switch. This further validates our
CM-4000 Carrier Ethernet + Transport (CE+T) products as
excellence-in-class and ahead of the curve,” says Sharon Mantin, VP
marketing at Orckit-Corrigent. “Product innovation is a key to our
continued commitment to meeting our customer needs and providing them
with solutions that are ground-breaking.”
