Accedian Networks (

Alert) has introduced “Vision EMS,” a workflow-automation and element management system that reduces the cost, time and effort involved in the deployment, management and maintenance of Ethernet services. Accedian said that by automating standard operating procedures, the system can reduce new service provisioning time from weeks to minutes.
Vision EMS reduces operational effort to the absolute minimum, thereby enabling efficient deployment of demanding, large-scale Ethernet wireless backhaul and business access offerings.
The system automatically provisions new units and related services upon installation, eliminating time-consuming, error-prone on-site configuration, while integrating with existing network management and operational support systems. Advanced fault, inventory and security applications tie in with provisioning, backup and upgrade features to further automate ongoing service management.
The company is built on the Nakina (
