TSEC Certification a Key Requirement for supplying GPON access solutions to the Indian Telecom Networks

New Delhi, Delhi, India, Friday, December 12, 2008 -- (Business Wire India) --

Alphion® Corporation announced that it has received the Technical Specification Evaluation Certificate (TSEC) for its Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) access equipment that supports the deployment of the next generation of multiple play FTTx services.

The Alphion GPON product family consists of the state-of-the-art Optical Line Terminal, Optical Network Terminals, and Passive Optical Splitters. The Alphion Optical Line Terminal offers high-density 40 GPON ports per shelf, ultra-fast 200 gigabit per second backplane, and 56 gigabit per second uplink capacity. The platform supports PON architectures with path and equipment redundancy, and includes Optical Network Terminals for single family residences, small businesses, and multiple dwelling units. Alphion will be displaying its full line of GPON equipment at the 2008 India Telecom show, December 11th to 13th, in New Delhi.

"Alphion is the first telecommunications equipment manufacturer to successfully complete TSEC certification of GPON based access equipment," commented Dr. Bijoy K. Mishra, Alphion Vice President of Sales. "This is a major milestone for Alphion. It is a testament of quality and reliability of Alphion GPON products and positions Alphion to be a leading supplier of GPON access solutions in the Indian Telecom Networks."

TSEC is a lengthy and rigorous certification process carried out by the Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) Quality Assurance (QA) organization that validates that a vendor's equipment conforms to all of the technical specifications and requirements specified by Telecom Engineering Center's Generic Requirements (GR) and ensures that the products meet the highest quality standards. TSEC certification also requires compliances to stringent environmental standards such as QM333, QM301, QM303, CE, EMI/EMC, IP55, NEBS, UL, etc. TSEC certification is a necessary requirement for deploying GPON products in BSNL and Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited (MTNL) networks in India.
