Hatteras Networks

Bringing Ethernet Services Where Fiber is Not Available
Hatteras Networks is headquartered in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina and was started several years ago to develop high-performance telecommunications access platforms. Hatteras Networks provides standards-based Ethernet access solutions, which leverage the fully ratified Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM) standards from the IEEE and ITU.

Significantly Increasing the Market Opportunity for Ethernet Services
Hatteras' innovative Ethernet over bonded copper access solutions enable carriers to leverage existing dry copper loops to deliver up to 45 Mbps of symmetrical business-grade Ethernet services to the 90% of buildings that do not have access to fiber. Carriers that previously deployed Ethernet services over fiber have come to realize the huge untapped market opportunity of Ethernet over copper services.

Completely Standards Based for Easy Integration
Hatteras is a founding member of the Ethernet in the First Mile Alliance, and was a leader in the development of the IEEE 802.3ah standards for delivering symmetrical Ethernet services natively over copper access loops. Hatteras' corporate commitment to standards and interoperability provides our customers with the certainty that their capital investments are protected.
