MetroNID and EtherNID access devices, an integrated part of the Creanord Managed Ethernet Access solution, define the boundaries of your network, enabling end-to-end service delivery and assurance with carrier-grade performance.

The MetroNID and EtherNID units are empowered with built-in Creanord EchoAgent technology enabling carrier-grade automation, real-time reporting and element management by operating in a tightly coupled manner with Creanord EchoVault.

All Creanord Managed Ethernet Access devices are built on the patent-pending Fast-Thru architecture, a unique hardware-based design that provides advanced Ethernet service creation, traffic monitoring and performance testing capabilities in a compact, cost efficient, carrier-grade access device.

Unlike store-and-forward architectures, Fast-Thru's proprietary silicon design provides wire-speed pass-through performance without adding jitter or delay, while at the same time providing microsecond measurement resolution and real-time processing for every packet flowing through the unit.

With transparent fail-over, NEBS Level 3 certification, no fans or moving parts, and 3-way redundant power, MetroNID and EtherNID demarcation units are truly carrier-grade. A variety of mounting options, including the rack-mount EtherSHELF enable easy installation at the customer premise, cell site or CO.

MetroNID Devices

High-performance MetroNID units provide carrier-grade demarcation within metro and access networks. Designed for cellular hubs, aggregation nodes, and carrier hand-offs, MetroNIDs segment, monitor and bridge diverse networks, delivering pervasive OAM and performance monitoring visibility.

EtherNID Devices

Designed to the access edge of your network, EtherNIDs offer advanced Managed Ethernet Access™ and service creation directly from customer premises and radio network sites. With a full range of Ethernet rates and interfaces, the comprehensive EtherNID family fits your network from end-to-end.
