FibroLAN announced today, May 19th, 2009 its line of Synchronous Ethernet fiber NTUs  - the Falcon SE series.

The Falcon SE series addresses mainly the fast growing market of mobile backhauling. While the original Falcon T series (announced last year) provided a robust and moderately priced point-to-point solution for cellular backhauling, the Falcon SE (including the Falcon SET)  series is an open ended, versatile and more flexible solution. It supports Stratum 3 level of synchronization along with 8 E1/T1 links over Ethernet, for either point-to-point or across  the network based on the CES/MEF8 standards.

In addition it allows the aggregation of virtually any number of E1/T1s on a ring, and offloading them as TDM links in a central location  (for instance - feeding SDH/SONET) or sending them across a next generation network.

The Falcon SE series cater to most of the current and envisaged methods in the mobile  backhauling arena being currently specified, including 2G (GSM), 3G (UMTS) and 4G as well as WiMAX base stations.

Israel Stein, FibroLAN's CEO comments: "the introduction of the Synchronous Ethernet capabilities to the current Falcon series  offers an affordable yet future proof solution to carriers. In addition, as many carriers operate in 2 or 3 of the target markets, the Falcon's multiple functionalities allow great saving due to simplified OAM, OSS and logistic processes". 

FibroLAN is a 13 years old leading vendor of fiber-optic access systems with a global presence, more than 25 carrier customers and a massive installed base that proves extremely high product reliability. FibroLAN is a public company with shares traded in TASE.
