Carrier Challenges
How do I provide more stringent SLA, Fault
Management, Performance Monitoring and
demarcation to Enterprise customers ?
Should I have single infrastructure for
residential and business customers ?
How do I keep the cost (CAPEX and OPEX) under
check ?

Establishing requirements
Next-Generation Networks
Hierarchical QoS to distinguish between Control and Data traffic
Dynamic Protection (no user-defined work and protect paths)
Any-to-any connectivity with multicast-support
QoS for various traffic-profiles (Data, Voice, Video)
Statistical Multiplexing
Emergence of Data Services
Point-to-point connections from Access to Controller
Sub-50ms protection for voice
User-defined work and protect paths
Fast and automated Fault-detection and isolation
Conventional Telephony Services

Which technology for backhaul?
Carrier-Ethernet
Hierarchical QoS to distinguish between Control and Data traffic
Dynamic Protection (no user-defined work and protect paths)
Any-to-any connectivity with multicast-support
Hierarchy is built-in
PBBERPS for connection-less protection, Shortest Path Bridging
Fundamental feature of Ethernet
Natively provided through 802.1p
Fundamental feature of Ethernet
Traffic-Engineered (user-defined) point-to-point connections through PBB-TE
IEEE G.8031 and G.8032 for Sub-50ms protection
Option for NMS-provisioned paths
IEEE and ITU-T CFM-OAM, EthOAM, EFM-OAM
QoS for various traffic-profiles (Data, Voice, Video)
Statistical Multiplexing
Point-to-point connections from Access to Controller
Sub-50ms protection for voice
User-defined work and protect paths
Fast and automated Fault-detection and isolation

Summary
SDH/SONET
Legacy Ethernet
provisioned circuits 50-ms protection
No OAM, no Traffic-engineering Flat network
bandwidth efficiency (sharing)
Bandwidth in-efficient
Carrier-Ethernet Transport
Bandwidth efficient Carrier-grade OAM Sub-50ms
protected P-to-P and MP-to-MP

• Carrier-Ethernet Transport for NGN Backhaul
• Sophisticated Carrier grade Ethernet transport
  solution
• Carrier grade management and reliability
• Evolve gracefully, keep revenues ahead of costs
• Lower Operations and training costs
