Abstract

Ethernet CES provides emulation of TDM services, such as N x 64 kbit/s, T1, E1, T3, E3, OC-3, and OC-12, across a Metropolitan Ethernet Network (MEN). The objective is to allow MEN service providers to offer TDM services to customers. Hence it allows MEN service providers to extend their reach and addressable customer base. For example, the use of CES enables metro Ethernet transport networks to connect to PBXs on customer premises and to deliver TDM voice traffic alongside data traffic on metro Ethernet.
