T5Pro is a highly integrated IP platform with Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, and VDSL capability on the customer side, and the ability of encapsulating IP packets on to a SONET payload for transport over a carrier’s fiber optic facilities.
FDDI, Fast Ethernet and ATM provide solutions for backbone traffic, but with backbone traffic increasing, 100 Mbps FDDI and Fast Ethernet links are not enough to prevent bottlenecks.
Moreover, with the smooth migration path between Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet, Fast Ethernet switches can be used to aggregate 10 Mbps Ethernet workstation connections and pass the aggregated traffic to a Gigabit Ethernet switch over a Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet link.
