Blue Pig Networks A unique alternative to carriers and optical equipment vendors – Vendor and carrier-neutral optical network solutions that result in lower costs and improved network performance.
Evolution of The Pig • Mid 1990s: Metro Fiber sold for the first time • High Fiber and Optronics Costs • High Operations Costs • Late 1990s: Elasticity of Demand! • Steve Lanning, Bell Labs • Low Cost, Readily Available Fiber and Optronics • High Operations Costs • 2002: Blue Pig Networks • Finally…low cost Network Operations Cost!
Today’s Choice: Leased Circuits & Wavelengths vs. Discrete Fiber Systems • Leased Circuits and Wavelengths • Discrete Fiber Systems • IRU to lease fiber • Optronic Hardware to light fiber • Blue Pig NOC to surveil network • BPN Field Service Technicians to maintain, repair optronics
Metro Reference Network • 5 Metro Locations • 50 Mile Fiber Pair Ring to Interconnect 5 Locations • OC-48 SONET Circuits Between 5 Locations
Some Cost Assumptions • Initial Fiber IRU Cost = $3,000,000 • Operations & Maintenance Cost = $225,000 • Optronics for 5 Locations = $750,000 • Leasing OC-48 Ring from Metro Carrier = $100,000/Month • OC-48 Lease Price Decreases 15% Annually • BPN Solution Price Decrease 15% Annually
