MiNID® is a field-programmable miniature L2/L3 network interface device (NID), available as an SFP sleeve and in a standalone enclosure.
The MiNID SFP sleeve is easily pluggable into SFP ports of switches and routers and eliminates the need for standalone demarcation devices. It seamlessly hosts standard FE and GbE SFP modules, and delivers substantial OpEx savings by eliminating additional power, space and cabling expenses.
The MiNID is also available in a miniature standalone enclosure, with a variety of user and network port options for maximum interface flexibility. Optional bypassrelay functionality ensures fail-safe operation and Power over Ethernet (PoE) support eliminates the need for an additional power supply.
The MiNID features a fully programmable, FPGA-based firmware for maximum flexibility. It enables easy download of demarcation and networking applications using the RADview D-NFV Orchestrator. Supported applications include:
DemarcService demarcation, PM and diagnostics for MEF Carrier Ethernet 2.0 and IP services with SLA assurance
AppAwareApplication-aware demarcation with service monitoring providing up to L7 visibility and policy enforcement to improve quality of experience
TunnelService demarcation with tunneling of L2 services over L3 networks Contact your local RAD distributor for additional/new application information.
