Packet / Cell

Overview

Aliathon’s Packet/Cell products integrate seamlessly with our TDM products to form legacy and next-generation packet transport solutions.

The Cores support multiple paths and are available in channelized and non-channelized variants.  This fine-grained flexibility supports a wide range of mappings to carry packets over any TDM based network.
