Metro Ethernet based Access Networks

I have been involved in the development of technology for telecom and broadband Internet access with specific focus on Indian service providers. Our team architected an innovative architecture that leverages the potential of Ethernet for providing Quality of Service (QoS) based triple play services. We also developed a novel method of transporting voice over packet switched networks like Ethernet and developed unique algorithms for enhancing the performance of packet voice communication.

A white paper written on Eisodus technolgy is `A EisoAccess Solution- A Broadband (R)Evolution'. I have authored a more complete tutorial article on challenges for broadband access in emerging economines like India- `Challenges for Broadband Deployment in India and Role of Metro Ethernet'. The related presentation can be found here.

Based on these ideas and with a vision to develop technology for Indian telecom markets indigenously, I founded a company called Eisodus Networks Private Limited. The company has been featured in Light Reading.
