Cable/Broadband
Government agencies are deregulating bandwidth, making hundreds of megahertz of bandwidth available for the
emerging technologies and systems providing broadband wireless access. A wide variety of technologies and
system implementations are being put into place to provide many different service offerings—cable, satellite,
and DSL, for instance. Flexible, reliable, available, scalable Sun products can help increase the return on invest-
ment, and decrease the risk, of providing these services.
Service Providers (SPs)
Offering reliability, security, and flexibility, Sun is one of the leading vendors in the service provider industry, with
innovative programs and services targeted specifically at helping SPs drive their services into the enterprise com-
munity. Sun provides solutions that can help SPs reduce operating costs, streamline business processes, differentiate
their services in the marketplace, and increase demand. Sun has strong partnerships with many of the leading
companies in the SP industry. In addition, SunTone and iForce programs are examples of how Sun works with key
partners to solve business issues for the industry.
Netra 240 Server
The Netra 240 server is designed for high-performance, high-density environments and provides significant
expandability. Occupying only two rack units (2 RU) of vertical space, the Netra 240 server is configured with high-
performance, 64-bit, SPARC® Version 9-compliant UltraSPARC IIIi processors.
Like other Sun servers, Netra 240 servers run the Solaris Operating System, Sun’s benchmark implementation
of System V Release 4 (SVR4) of the UNIX® operating system. Netra 240 servers enjoy full binary compatibility
with other SPARC-based systems—including the 106-processor Sun Fire 15K server. With scalability and carefully-
balanced performance, a full complement of remote management features, and data center design, these SPARC
systems allow organizations to leverage their expertise with Sun’s proven SPARC architecture and Solaris
Operating System into the telecommunications environment.
Sun designed the Netra 240 server from the ground up to meet NEBS and ETSI equipment standards. Certified
to meet NEBS Level 3 requirements (DC version), it is an ideal candidate for applications that need to operate in
harsh environments and require verified ruggedness, such as those found in telecommunication central offices,
government, and industrial applications.
