Solutions for Telco

With the rapid growth in the telecommunications (telco) industry, telco companies are looking for ways to satisfy their expanding customer base by better managing and upgrading their networks. Leading telco companies are deploying out-of-band management products to complement existing network and hardware management tools in their IT environments.

Cyclades® ACS advanced console servers have earned the telco industry’s stringent Network Equipment Building System (NEBS) Level 3 certification. This enables telco companies to rely on Cyclades ACS console servers to provide secure, consolidated and centralised out-of-band management for their demanding central office (CO) environments.

Cyclades ACS console servers are designed to manage IT assets and telecommunications equipment within networks of clustered computers through alternate paths that provide secure remote access to IT assets whether or not the production network is operational. Secure remote access to IT assets improves productivity and helps to safeguard network and IT operations against unplanned disruptions. By deploying Cyclades ACS console servers with NEBS Level 3 certification, telecommunication providers and enterprise customers now have the flexibility to run mission-critical applications across high-performance clusters with greater reliability and security.

The Enhanced Security Framework, now part of Cyclades ACS console servers, was designed from inception to tackle the diverse security requirements of today's enterprise and telecommunications networks. The ability to select pre-set security profiles (secure, moderate and open) and/or to define customised security profiles provides the means for seamless adherence to existing enterprise and telecommunications networks security policies.
