Aegis Graham Bell Awards (AGBA) has been promoting innovations and entrepreneurship in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) domain. AGBA has been rewarding those who made outstanding contribution in these fields since 8 years with a vision to foster and stimulate innovators, for India to become a nucleus of innovations.

The innovation caters to telecom service providers who are increasingly transitioning their circuit-switched transmission networks to a packet switched infrastructure to manage the exponential growth in high-speed data services. Circuit Emulation technology (CES) enables such telecom operators to translate legacy TDM signals such as E1/DS1, E3/DS3, STM-n/OC-n to appropriate packet formats and efficiently carry them on a modern packet transport network. Tejas Networks’ TJ1400-18 offers one of the most advanced and densest implementations of circuit emulation function in the industry today and provides a highly scalable replacement for traditional core TDM infrastructure equipment (DACS) for network modernization applications.
