Generically, an NID may also be called a network interface unit (NIU), [1] telephone network interface (TNI), system network interface (SNI), or telephone network box. Australia's National Broadband Network uses the term network termination device or NTD. A smartjack is a type of NID with capabilities beyond simple electrical connection, such ...
Neptune, also known as Sun Multithreaded 10 GbE, is a dual 10 Gbit/s, multithreaded, PCIe x8-based network interface controller for 10 Gigabit Ethernet.It was developed and originally produced by Sun Microsystems, and later licensed to Marvell Technology Group in 2007.
The primary purpose of a DS1 Network Interface Unit, T1-NIU (AKA Smartjack to many) is to provide a remote test point to the service provider to a DS1 (T1) circuit at the Network Interface (NI). In simple terms, a T1-NIU provides full DS1 loopback towards the network to permit a service provider to test to the NI from a central test center to ...
The modern demarcation point is the network interface device (NID) or intelligent network interface device (INID) also known as a "smartjack". [2] The NID is the telco's property. The NID may be outdoors (typically, mounted on the building exterior in a weatherproof box) or indoors. The NID is usually placed for easy access by a technician.
Network interface may refer to: Network interface controller, a computer hardware component that connects a computer to a computer network; Network interface device, a device that serves as the demarcation point between a telephone carrier's local loop and the customer's wiring; Virtual network interface, an abstract virtualized representation ...
An Intelligent Network Interface Device, more commonly known as an "INID", is a system that provides triple play media services to customer homes. The system provides digital subscriber line access, advanced TV, and voice over internet protocol (VoIP) phone services to subscribed customers.
The network controller implements the electronic circuitry required to communicate using a specific physical layer and data link layer standard such as Ethernet or Wi-Fi. [a] This provides a base for a full network protocol stack, allowing communication among computers on the same local area network (LAN) and large-scale network communications through routable protocols, such as Internet ...
In telecommunications, a network-to-network interface (NNI) is an interface that specifies signaling and management functions between two networks.An NNI circuit can be used for interconnection of signalling (e.g., SS7), Internet Protocol (IP) (e.g., MPLS) or ATM networks.
