Telecommunications equipment maker Network Equipment Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:NWK), a global provider of multi-service network exchange solutions for government and enterprise customers, announced general availability of netOS version 1.2 for its NX5010 platform.

The NX5010's netOS version 1.2 enables high-speed SONET transfer, extends the product's Infiniband-over-WAN capabilities, and delivers synchronized encryption to enable real-time communications. These new features significantly expand the system functionality and extend customer value. Capable of being deployed in a wide array of scenarios from high-speed video transfer, data encryption, enterprise storage, and disaster recovery applications, the NX5010 is a key infrastructure element that facilitates high-speed data links at 10GbE and OC192 data rates that seamlessly interconnects high-speed networks.

"For both government to commercial applications, customers commend its versatility, high performance, and rich feature set, and recognize the value the platform delivers," said C. Nicholas Keating, President and CEO. "We have delivered 20 units of the NX5010 and have an order for eight more. This new order from the Department of Defense (DoD) underscores the necessity for high performance multi-service aggregation platforms, which are capable of transmitting increasing data volumes under ever shrinking time constraints."

The NX5010 is jointly developed by NET and Bay Microsystems, Inc. The NX5010, with its netOS operating system, is compact and scalable, with robust capability to forward data, Infiniband, cell, or packet, at 10 gigabits per second over a wide area or local connection in a compact foot print (2RU).
