Service providers and carriers use demarcation devices to monitor SLA level for various services such as mobile backhauling, L2 services and L3 VPN.
All demarcation devices share several pain factors, all can be easily translated into installation cost.
Based on interviews, done with several of our European customers, it seems that installation costs range from 200EU to 2000EU, depending on country and location.
As it applies to the installation of any device, this cost is not calculated in the price of the devices but being able to reduce it may have huge advantages to operators.

14. Designed for simple installation
Designed as physical SFP “sleeve” providing:
Plugged into SFP cage (FE*/GE, ordering options)
Hosts off-the-shelf SFPs – 10/40/80Km, copper, single fiber
Transparent to SFP “Digital Diagnostics Monitoring” (DDM) parameters
Plug and play installation
Pre-configuration or DHCP based Zero touch provisioning
*Note – MiNID/FE will be available in future versions
Patent pending design – plug-in SFP and plug into hosting device
The sleeve design is RADs most important differentiator.
It allows the following:
re-use of SFPs (cost efficiency)
Validate one MiNID and cover any distance
Simplify integration with 3rd party devices (no need for vendor specific code)

19. Enhancing Non-Carrier Ethernet Devices
Many Ethernet devices are not Carrier Ethernet capable (e.g. old Cisco Catalysts)
MiNID Upgrades them to provide Ethernet OAM, PM and diagnostics

20. L3 VPN over Ethernet Access
L3 VPN is often delivered over Ethernet Access
By plugging the MiNID into the router the SP can easily have visibility on the Ethernet service span
