DDS-XM100 Bhutan Telecom Case Study - 2007

Bhutan Telecom serves one the most remote and geographically challenging countries in the world. Until recently, data collected by remote exchanges was stored on aging tapes and physically transported to a central location for processing. Now, with the DDS-XM100, data is stored reliably on solid-state memory and information is network accessible. The country introduced telecommunications in 1963, and has around 30,000 landline telephones, many of which have been installed since the 1990s. Until the installation of the DDS-XM100 units, data back-up for Bhutan's local switches and remote exchanges was reliant on outdated and unreliable magnetic tape units (MTUs) originally supplied with the exchanges. At times the tapes were transported from remote areas to the central exchange by bus.

DDS Xpress NEC NZ Case Study - 2004

The DDS range of products have been an evolution of the DSU product developed specifically for NEC NZ. In 2004 NEC NZ wanted to rapidly develop a replacement for the aging Magnetic Tape Units (MTUs), used in Telephone Exchanges for data storage back-up. We were entrusted with the development of a solution that needed to be both plug and play and use no mechanical parts. The result was a modern, cost-effective digital storage unit, designed using Snapper, our revolutionary ARM-based System Module with an integrated FPGA. NEC NZ has rolled out 178 units to exchanges throughout New Zealand.
