ZHNE | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Zhone Technologies, a provider in multi-service access solutions, announced that Quebec CLEC Maskatel has selected Zhone's MALCTM 1U POTS/DSL platform to provide services to Multi-Dwelling Units (MDUs).

Zhone's 1 Rack Unit (RU), 48 port configuration of voice and ADSL2+ ports with Ethernet uplinks is suited to the MDU play, the company noted.
