Next Generation SONET/SDH and PDH Technologies
Next Generation SONET/SDH and PDH (NG-SONET/SDH and NG-PDH) are two solutions developed to support efficient transfer of packet data across the existing telecommunications network. Read more >>
Connection Oriented Packet Transport
Connection Oriented Packet Transport is a general term to describe the concept underlying both Provider Backbone Bridge - Traffic Engineering (PBB-TE) and Transport MPLS (T-MPLS). Read more >>
Carrier Ethernet Services
Carrier Ethernet Services are connectivity services based on Ethernet User Network Interfaces (UNI) and packet formats. Defined by Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) in a number of recommendations, Carrier Ethernet Services are proposed as an alternative to traditional leased line services as well as layer 3 services (IP/MPLS) services, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPN).

Pseudowires and Ethernet over MPLS (VPWS, VPLS)
A pseudowire is an encapsualtion of a service for transmission over a packet switched network. A number of different types of pseudowires have been implemented, but the IETF Pseudowire Emulation End-to-End (PWE3) for transport of Ethernet packets over MPLS is probably the most widely known.
