Projects Undertaken and Case Studies

Segment Routing Development

A source-routing architecture that seeks the right balance between distributed intelligence and centralized optimization. PalC has the expertise in devloping the segment-routing related solutions both from the control-plane and dataplane perspective.

White Box NOS Porting

PalC has a proven track record of porting all the features related to Layer-2, Layer-3 MPLS and multicast based solutions onto the chipsets of industry leading ASIC vendors. We have the experience of Broadcom (Both XGS and DNX based architecture), Marvell, Nephos etc.

CORD PON Aggregation Switch

The CORD (Central Office Re-architected as a Datacenter) platform leverages SDN, NFV and Cloud technologies to build agile datacenters for the network edge. As part of PalC services, a GPON aggregation switch functionality in a CORD deployment has been acheived.

Egress QoS

For real-time applications such as voice over IP (VoIP) and video, the amount of available bandwidth and end-to-end delay is crucial. Hence, the ability to differentiate traffic and to provide differentiated service levels based on the types of traffic plays a significant role.
