When it comes to storage, small and medium businesses have a lot in common with large enterprises. Just like the Fortune 400, they need to ensure that data is backed up, retrievable and secure, and that data access complies with governmental regulations. Unfortunately, if you are a small business owner you also cope with some challenges the big guys don't have, budgets are small and your IT staff, if you even have one, may not have storage-specific expertise.

Researchers and students at the University of Miami can now have extremely fast access to the Internet, with the deployment of a multi-gigabit-capable wavelength service from Yipes Communications and LuxN Inc.
In the first deployment of its kind at the university, Yipes installed an OC-3 (155 Mbps) optical connection between the main campus computing center and the Internet2 point of presence at the NAP of the Americas in Miami. Internet2 is a high-speed, nationwide network open to qualified research institutions, including government agencies and educational institutions.
The University of Miami is now using Yipes and Internet2 to deliver timely weather information to NASA for satellite launches, to facilitate videoconferencing for telemedicine applications and even to enable packet-based telephone service to researchers in the South Pole.
Yipes uses LuxN's WavSystem platform to provision up to 2.4 Gigabits per second (OC-48) on a single wavelength, with the ability to add more wavelengths on demand. The protocol-independent Yipes implementation allows the University of Miami to carry Ethernet, ATM or legacy TDM/SONET traffic.
The LuxN and Yipes solution will also meet the increased demands of University of Miami students for better access to Internet services such as Web browsing, e-mail and downloads of large multimedia files.
LuxN, meantime, also said it has deployed a metropolitan digital video application connecting Tokyo Broadcasting System (TBS), one of Japan's leading commercial broadcasters, to digital-effects and computer graphics post-production company IMAGICA. The link provides high-bandwidth capabilities for TBS to view post-production video in an uncompressed format rather than using couriers to deliver taped-video between locations, officials said.
Along with partner Tokyo Electron Ltd., LuxN provided the high-capacity WDM connection using TTNet fiber over a 20 kilometer distance using LuxN's WavSystem along with a combined solution of Extreme Network's Gigabit Ethernet equipment and Brocade-based storage area network infrastructure.
