Defining Intelligent Demarcation
EtherNID and MetroNID demarcation units define the boundaries of your network, enabling end-to-end
service provisioning and assurance with carrier-grade performance. The EtherNID and MetroNID units
are built on a patent-pending architecture, a unique hardware-based design that provides advanced
performance testing and service creation capabilities in a compact, cost efficient, carrier-grade in-line
element. Unlike store-and-forward architectures, these units' proprietary silicon design provides wire-
speed pass-through performance without adding jitter or delay, while at the same time providing
microsecond measurement resolution and real-time processing for every packet flowing through the
unit.With transparent fail-over, NEBS Level 3 certification, no fans or moving parts, and 3-way redundant
power, EtherNID and MetroNID units are truly carrier-grade. A variety of mounting options mean flexible
installation at customer premises, cell sites, central offices and aggregation nodes
