Fiber and Copper Aggregation for
Carrier Applications
•
Transport TDM and Ethernet from multiple branches over Fiber and/or copper to a
central site, and aggregate the traffic towards SDH/SONET and/or PSN
•
Utilize existing copper/fiber infrastructure saving forklift expenses
•
Multiplex services at the CPE to optimize bandwidth and lower CapEx and OpEx
•
Aggregate Ethernet and TDM to SDH/SONET and/or PSN to optimize bandwidth
towards the network
•
Smoothly migrate services reducing forklift costs and network downtime

Service Assured Networking Operational Core Network
• Operational network traditionally based on SDH/SONET
• Carrier Ethernet is ideal for replacing SDH/SONET for
operational applications, offering various advantages over
IP/MPLS:
– Simplified architecture and management
Substation
– Reduced Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
RTU
– Increased security
Teleprotection
– Lower latency

Megaplex-4 v4.1 2013 Slide40
Summary
• Even though the market is changing there is still a need for legacy equipment
• Co-existence of network technology requires hybrid solutions
• The Megaplex platform answers both legacy and future needs with its unique
value proposition:
– Lower CapEx using a single box solution
– Lower OpEx by bandwidth optimization and low TCO
– Support for legacy and for new services
– Fiber and copper aggregation in the same box!
– Clear migration path to PSN saves forklift upgrade costs
– Unified solution as a central solution for multiple types of CPE
– Powerful management
– Clear roadmap with State of the Art innovations

MEF CE 2.0 Highlights
• CE 2.0 Service Manageability
– E2E service and performance monitoring
PSN
– Circuit validation and fault isolation
eNB
– Benefit: Reduces service costs (OPEX)
E2E SLA Assurance
• CE 2.0 Multi-CoS – Multiple Classes-of-Service
– Leverages TM tools for better QoS and Network Performance
– Benefit: Efficient BW utilization avoids infrastructure over-build
– Benefit: improve QoE by setting CBS per CoS (e.g. reduce queue length
(CBS) for high priority, delay and jitter sensitive traffic while increasing CBS
for bursty, low priority traffic).
• CE 2.0 Interconnect - Integrates autonomous CE networks
– Accelerates delivery of off-net UNI-to-ENNI services
E-Access
– E-Access: New Wholesale Service
 Benefit: Standardized Ethernet Access
 Benefit: Minimizes quantity of custom Interconnect

Megaplex-4 Traffic Management
Features
• Extremely flexible classification (flow):
– Port, VLAN-ID, P-bit, TOS-DSCP, EtherType
• Hierarchical-QoS (H-QOS) with flow level TM
(CL.2 Network ports):
– CIR/EIR Policing per flow for differentiated
services
– SLA assurance in congested links - shaping per
EVC
– Up to 8 queues per flow with Strict Priority and
WFQ scheduling
– Simplifying operation with powerful bandwidth
profiles
Benefits
• Increased revenues using ‘Intelligent’ over
subscription
– Multiple services from same port - EVC
– Higher bandwidth utilization - EIR
– Better utilization of network resources
• Maintain customer satisfaction with
differentiated services
– Different Drop probability, delay and jitter at
different cost
• Reduce churn by ensuring SLA
– Per service shaping ensures bandwidth per
customer (EVC, EVC.CoS)
