Ciena's Ethernet Services Manager (ESM) is a ground-breaking carrier-grade, automated service activation, creation, and management platform for Ciena's Carrier Ethernet Service Delivery Switches and Service Aggregation Switches. The ESM enables subscriber managed services and lets users efficiently build and deploy large-scale Carrier Ethernet networks; cut time to market for new services; accelerate service revenue; maximize service availability; assure service quality; and leverage existing systems.
These combined functions cut Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), reduce time to market, and speed revenue. The ESM also paves the way to implement new services cost-effectively for increased revenue and competitiveness. The ESM is built on a low-touch, service-oriented architecture that transparently handles all the complexities and details of deploying, delivering, and sustaining True Carrier Ethernet services. This comprehensive suite of integrated software tools lets service providers respond rapidly to the demand for new Ethernet-based services that drive top-line revenue growth while significantly reducing operating expenses. The service and network management platform scales from small utility, municipality, and Independent Operating Carrier (IOC) networks to the large, geographically dispersed networks of Tier 1 service providers and Multiple Service Operators (MSOs).
