Bringing Ethernet Services Where Fiber is Not Available
Hatteras Networks is headquartered in Research Triangle Park, North
Carolina and was started several years ago to develop high-performance
telecommunications access platforms. Hatteras Networks provides
standards-based Ethernet access solutions, which leverage the fully
ratified Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM) standards from the IEEE and
ITU.
Significantly Increasing the Market Opportunity for Ethernet Services
Hatteras' innovative Ethernet over bonded copper access solutions enable
carriers to leverage existing dry copper loops to deliver up to 45 Mbps
of symmetrical business-grade Ethernet services to the 90% of buildings
that do not have access to fiber. Carriers that previously deployed
Ethernet services over fiber have come to realize the huge untapped
market opportunity of Ethernet over copper services.
Completely Standards Based for Easy Integration
Hatteras is a founding member of the Ethernet in the First Mile
Alliance, and was a leader in the development of the IEEE 802.3ah
standards for delivering symmetrical Ethernet services natively over
copper access loops. Hatteras' corporate commitment to standards and
interoperability provides our customers with the certainty that their
capital investments are protected.
