Internet Protocol (IP)-based services have caught the attention of large carriers for some time, but the complexity associated with provisioning these services has historically been an impediment to wide-scale deployment.
Startup Seranoa Networks Inc. this month launched products designed to provide IP service providers with a less-expensive alternative to edge aggregation routers from Cisco Systems Inc., Juniper Networks Inc. and other equipment vendors.
Juniper Networks Inc. is set to unveil a plan designed to let service providers profitably address underserved markets without commoditizing their offerings.
Juniper Networks Inc. earlier this month announced a new deployment of its routers in the Internet2 research network at the same time an investment research firm cut its estimates for the company based on edge router trials underway at Verizon Communications Inc.
