MRV Demonstrates H-VPLS Ethernet Demarcation and MPLS Ethernet Aggregation Interoperability February 8th, 2006 OSM207 ETHERNET DEMARCATION AND OS9000 METRO ETHERNET AGGREGATION SERIES DEMONSTRATED MULTIPOINT ETHERNET SERVICES INTEROPERABILITY AT MPLS WORLD CONGRESS IN PARIS CHATSWORTH, CA – February 8, 2006 – MRV COMMUNICATIONS, INC. (Nasdaq: MRVC), a leading provider of products and services for out-of-band networking, WDM and optical transport, metro Ethernet, fiber optic components, 10GE and other service aware networking products, today successful demonstrate its Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) and MPLS Ethernet aggregation and Ethernet demarcation interoperability on both its OptiSwitch Master 207 (OSM207) and OptiSwitch 9000 (OS9000) series as part of the MPLS & Frame Relay Alliance Interoperability Demonstration at MPLS World Congress, Paris 2006. The demonstration is one of the industry’s first interoperability events to showcase H-VPLS and VPLS Multipoint Ethernet Service. H-VPLS extends the capabilities of VPLS, allowing carriers to further optimize their networks for triple-play Ethernet services. “Our continued successful demonstration of MPLS point to point Ethernet services and VPLS Multipoint Ethernet Services interoperability using the OS9000 and OSM207 series shows MRV’s commitment to increase the scalability of carrier Ethernet networks and enhanced the reliability of Ethernet services. Being certified by organizations such as the MFA, EANTC and Metro Ethernet Forum validates our commitment to providing truly service enabler solutions for optical access and metro networks.” said Chen Genossar, Senior Vice President for MRV Communications. MRV’s OptiSwitch 9000s are the first carrier-class Ethernet aggregation routers that integrated optical Ethernet connectivity, provision enhanced MPLS Ethernet services, and aggregate WDM optical transport. OS9000 series offer enhanced optical Ethernet services for triple-play voice, video and data networks and Ethernet carriers. The router series is used to aggregate FTTX or DSLAM devices and provision flow-based and application-aware QoS, per subscriber enhanced security and physical layer to service layer end-to-end multilayer management capabilities for optimal carrier Ethernet aggregation solutions. The OSM207 VPLS Ethernet demarcation series was one of the first metro Ethernet compliant products as certified by the Metro Ethernet Forum. It is a compact carrier-class metro Ethernet demarcation platform support EPL, EVPL and E-LAN Ethernet services. TheOSM207 enables the delivery of differentiated metro Ethernet services thanks to built-in support for dynamic QoS and intelligent service enabler features. The OSM207 is ideal for service providers seeking to deliver profitable business services, such as point-to-point and Multipoint VPNs Ethernet services, over a variety of bandwidths and with different service-level agreements (SLAs).
