Broadband Network Systems partners to bring mVPN network to life
Apr 14, 2004 12:00 PM
Broadband Network Systems (BNS) has announced with Cisco Systems,
Millennium Information Technologies, TANDBERG Television, BitBand and
Sri Lanka Telecom (SLT) a demonstration of the world’s first
successful mVPN network deployment for multicast video on VPN and
video-on-demand.
In the weeklong trial, BNS provided turnkey IP video solutions for
this world’s first mVPN network. On a Cisco platform with mMPLS
core from SLT, using IP video servers from BitBand Technologies, MPEG
encoders and IP streamers from TANDBERG Television and BNS P200 IP
set-top boxes, the tests consisted of multicast live TV channels and on
demand movies, successfully brought from the headend via mMPLS core and
mVPN link.
The multicast and VOD streams were then transported to several edge
locations in the network, including the client side, and the result was
that all video streams were tested at 4Mb/s on DSL network.
The result of the collaboration was a reliable, secure, private and
easily managed network that is — for the first time —
capable of delivering multicast video on IP-VPN networks. This
collaboration also demonstrated how mVPN can cater to Multi-ISP
users.
