SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- Juniper Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: JNPR) today announced that its E-series platform has completed the Telcordia New Generation Systems (NGS) Adapter Strategy for the Telcordia Network Configuration Manager System. Similar to the OSMINE process, the NGS Adapter Strategy was created by Telcordia Technologies to help ensure products are compatible in multi-vendor networks prior to deployment in the incumbent service provider networks for the new generation of network elements. Approximately 80 percent of established telecommunications infrastructures depend on Telcordia software platforms to help minimize the impact of OSS (Operations Support Systems) integration and to ensure flow-through service provisioning. This enables incumbent carriers to provide continued Operations, Administration, Maintenance, and Provisioning (OAM&P) of services to a large number of subscribers in a time-efficient manner while upgrading network and service infrastructure. 'The Telcordia NGS Adapter Strategy provides flow through automation, reducing operational costs for service providers utilizing Telcordia OSS,' said Doug Fantuzzi, vice president/general manager, New Market OSS Product Management, Telcordia. 'By completing this process, Juniper Networks is demonstrating its commitment to the RBOC market while minimizing the impact of its OSS integration into incumbent networks.' 'This milestone is significant to Juniper Networks and our customers since interoperability with Telcordia OSS is a requirement for the incumbent service providers,' said Kevin Dillon, director of portfolio marketing, Juniper Networks. 'In addition, Juniper will continue its ongoing commitment to the OSMINE and NGS programs with support for additional Juniper devices and Telcordia applications.' Juniper Networks Inc.
