Capabilities Overview

Carrier Ethernet and Its Services

Carrier Ethernet , enabled by the QGate, is a robust and scalable networking technology tailored for enterprise and service provider environments, offering reliable and high-performance connectivity over metropolitan and wide area networks (MANs and WANs).

 

It extends the versatility of Ethernet beyond local area networks (LANs) by providing advanced features like Quality of Service (QoS), low-latency data transmission, and bandwidth guarantees.

E-Line (Ethernet Line)

A point-to-point connectivity service that provides secure, dedicated bandwidth between two locations. Ideal for applications such as business interconnectivity, cloud access, and data center integration, E-Line ensures consistent and predictable performance.

E-LAN (Ethernet LAN)

A multipoint-to-multipoint service that enables seamless communication between multiple locations as if they were on the same local network. This service is widely used for collaborative environments and distributed enterprises requiring high-bandwidth, any-to-any connectivity.

EVC (Ethernet Virtual Connection)

The foundational building block of Carrier Ethernet, EVC defines the logical connection between two or more service endpoints, ensuring secure and efficient transport of data. EVCs are designed to support a variety of topologies and service types, enabling flexible network design.

With these services, Carrier Ethernet provides the agility and reliability necessary to support critical applications like mobile backhaul, cloud computing, and disaster recovery.

 

Its advanced features make it the preferred choice for organizations seeking a secure, efficient, and scalable solution for their networking needs.

Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC)

Supported by QGate, is cryptographic algorithms suite developed to safeguard data against the capabilities of quantum computers. Unlike traditional methods vulnerable to quantum attacks, PQC relies on mathematical problems that remain computationally infeasible for both classical and quantum systems.

 

Leading examples of PQC algorithms include Kyber, a lattice-based encryption scheme, and Dilithium, a lattice-based digital signature scheme. These algorithms were selected as part of the NIST-203 standard for post-quantum cryptography, which focuses on public key encryption and digital signatures.

 

Additionally, ongoing efforts like NIST-204 aim to expand the suite of quantum-resistant algorithms to address a broader range of cryptographic needs. PQC ensures that organizations can transition to quantum-resistant systems, securing communications and data in the quantum era while maintaining compatibility with existing infrastructure.

QGate supports interfaces richness
and variety including 100G/10G/1G Interfaces

Providing scalable networking bandwidth options for diverse applications.

 

100G interfaces deliver ultra-high-speed connectivity for data centers and backbone networks, supporting massive data volumes with low latency.

 

10G interfaces offer a cost-effective solution for enterprises and service providers, while 1G interfaces remain essential for legacy systems and smaller networks.

​

As technology evolves, networks are transitioning to even higher speeds, with 400G interfaces now powering hyperscale data centers and carrier backbones, enabling unprecedented data handling capacity.

 

Looking ahead, 800G interfaces are emerging as the next frontier, promising to meet the demands of AI workloads, 5G networks, and ultra-connected infrastructures.

 

These advancements ensure seamless scalability and future-proofing for the ever-expanding digital ecosystem.

Quantum Key Distribution (QKD)

Is an advanced cryptographic technique that leverages the principles of quantum mechanics to enable secure key exchange between parties. Unlike traditional key exchange methods, QKD uses quantum particles, such as photons, to transmit encryption keys.

 

Any attempt to intercept or measure these particles disturbs their quantum state, immediately alerting the communicating parties to potential eavesdropping.

 

This inherent security feature ensures the confidentiality of the keys. QKD is especially valuable for applications requiring ultra-secure communications, such as in government, defense, and critical infrastructure.

 

As part of the growing quantum-safe ecosystem, QKD complements Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) by providing physical-layer security, offering a dual-layer defense against both classical and quantum threats in the evolving cybersecurity landscape.

 

The QGate has seamless integration with leading QKD systems.

QiEra Element Management System (QEMS)

Is a centralized platform for managing and monitoring network elements in telecommunications.

 

It enables operators to configure, monitor, and maintain hardware and software components, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.

 

By providing real-time status updates, fault detection, and diagnostics, EMS plays a critical role in streamlining network operations and supporting efficient, scalable management of complex network infrastructures.

Certification and compliance

Designed to comply to FIPS 140-3 L3 and Common Criteria 

 

FIPS 140-3 and Common Criteria certifications demonstrate a product's commitment to robust security, regulatory compliance, and readiness for deployment in the most sensitive and demanding environments.

FIPS 140-3 is a U.S. government standart

FIPS 140-3

is a U.S. government standard for cryptographic modules, ensuring they meet rigorous security requirements for protecting sensitive data.

 

It builds on its predecessor, FIPS 140-2, with enhanced testing procedures and updated guidelines aligned with modern cryptographic needs, including resistance to emerging threats like quantum computing.

Common Criteria (CC)

is an internationally recognized framework for evaluating and certifying the security of IT products.

 

It provides a standardized methodology to assess a product's security features and their effectiveness against defined threats.

 

Products certified under Common Criteria are trusted globally for use in critical systems, including defense, government, and enterprise environments.
