GM4 Network Interface Devices
Carrier Ethernet 2.0 Certied Compliant NIDs
The iConverter
®
GM4 is a Network Interface Device (NID) that
delivers advanced Carrier Ethernet 2.0 services and provides
demarcation at the edges of a network. The GM4 enables
rapid service deployments, Service Level Agreement (SLA)
assurances, comprehensive fault management and service
protection. These advanced capabilities reduce operating
costs, provide faster return on investment (ROI) and improve
customer satisfaction.
Advanced Trafc Management and Policing
The GM4 supports MEF-certied User-to-Network Interface
(UNI) functions including Class of Service (CoS) management,
granular rate-limiting, and 802.1ad Provider Bridge VLAN
stacking (Q-in-Q) for service multiplexing of multiple E-Line,
E-LAN and E-Tree services. The GM4 provides exible per-
ow service mapping, trafc policing and shaping. CIR/EIR
“two rates, three colors” ingress port policing provides the
granular bandwidth optimization required for CE 2.0 services
such as Business Ethernet Services and Mobile Backhaul.
The GM4 also provides advanced classication and ltering
of subscriber trafc as an EVC or CoS ow based on Layer 1,
2, 3 or 4 identiers.
Comprehensive Service OAM
The GM4 provides comprehensive support of the latest carrier-
class Ethernet Service OAM standards, enabling service
assurance and reducing operational costs. IEEE 802.1ag
Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) pro-actively monitors
service availability and provides tools for rapid fault isolation.
ITU-T Y.1731 Performance Monitoring provides the ability to
monitor SLA parameters including frame delay, frame delay
variation and frame loss. Hardware-based Delay Measurement
and Loopback Measurement with nanosecond resolution
provides the highest level of service testing and SLA assurance
for delay sensitive voice and nancial services.
Service Provisioning
Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP) enables efciencies in service
activation that accelerate turn up and reduce the need for
on-site technicians. ZTP allows service provisioning to be
centralized, standardized and remotely managed to reduce
OPEX and provide faster return on investment. For Cable
MSOs, the GM4 supports the CableLabs
®
DEMARC Auto-
Conguration (DAC) standard for automating the provisioning
of Ethernet services over DPoE networks.
