ReadyLinks has joined the HomeGrid Forum. It will bring its knowledge and expertise of networking delivery – derived from specialising in products that deliver IP and Ethernet-based services – into the G.hn alliance of system vendors, silicon vendors, enterprise customers, and service providers, accelerating broadband deployments.
Companies of all sizes use ReadyLinks hardware, software and APIs to upgrade networks, simplify deployment, and enhance user experience, with over 1,000 communities being improved by service providers using ReadyLinks technologies.
HomeGrid Forum’s President Livia Rosu says, “it is with great pleasure that we welcome ReadyLinks as a HomeGrid Forum member, joining our GiGAWire task force. They bring vast knowledge of cloud-managed multi-gigabit networks with PoE++ functionality, over two conductors of copper natively and a product suite that leverages existing infrastructures.”
ReadyLinks products are designed and built from the ground up for cloud management, and come out of the box with centralised management, visibility, real-time web-based diagnostics, monitoring, reporting, and more. The ReadyLinks cloud networking approach provides centralised management, visibility, and control without the cost and complexity of controller appliances or overlay management software.
The ReadyLinks solution set features a wide range of cloud managed CPE, ideal for MDUs, SFUs and MTUs, as it delivers high-speed data and power over existing wires. Their expansive product line also offers a diverse set of cloud-managed switches that provide centralised management, visibility, and control, without the cost and complexity of controller appliances.
Their solution has been adopted into enterprise and carrier-grade deployments across the world. With hundreds of thousands of ports deployed, and hundreds of millions of dollars transacting across their system annually, the ReadyLinks system is a secure, reliable, validated, and trusted solution for Tier 1 Telcos, WISP, and hospitality providers alike looking to upgrade their facilities to fiber speeds without the exorbitant cost and hassle of rewiring.
ReadyLinks President and CEO, Larry Synstelien, comments, “We are excited to join the HomeGrid Forum and help cater to the demands of today’s wired and wireless networks. Being able to combine the simplicity of the cloud with the power of enterprise and carrier-grade hardware, we are looking forward to sharing our knowledge and produce high-end G.hn Access products to support enterprise and service provider deployments”.
The ReadyLinks ReadyViewTM dashboard is the backbone of the highly available, secure, and efficient ReadyLinks solution set. The ReadyViewTM dashboard application provides real-time, multi-network monitoring, management, inventory, and provisioning. Built upon modern REST APIs, with cross-platform support including Android, Apple, and most web browsers, the ReadyViewTM enables IT administrators, NOC operators, and local technicians, greater visibility and control. By empowering boots on the ground with real-time alerts and diagnostics, network disturbances are caught and remedied before they become service affecting.
In addition to the ReadyViewTM dashboard, ReadyLinks has developed an in-house solution to address costly subscriber activation and subscriber management, ReadyOnTM. With ReadyOnTM, the subscriber manages their network, defines their service level, and pays their subscription entirely online. Native integration and purpose built, ReadyViewTM and ReadyOnTM enable a modern, cloud-managed solution for subscriber management and payment processing. With real-time alerting, historical metrics, and service availability, subscribers and providers alike benefit from operational efficiencies and next-gen network insights.
