    2. 2 Outline Ethernet services driving metro/edge innovation Overview of transport encapsulation technologies MPLS-based Ethernet-based Side-by-side comparison Summary …and a prediction Talking points: Over the last couple of years, there have been some interesting developments in the market Ethernet services deployment and revenue is rapidly expanding L2 transport technologies dominate emerging access/aggregation networks This presentation Briefly highlights the motivating factors of Carrier Ethernet services growth Provides overview of current and promising transport encapsulation technologies Summarizes and perhaps most importantly makes a predictionTalking points: Over the last couple of years, there have been some interesting developments in the market Ethernet services deployment and revenue is rapidly expanding L2 transport technologies dominate emerging access/aggregation networks This presentation Briefly highlights the motivating factors of Carrier Ethernet services growth Provides overview of current and promising transport encapsulation technologies Summarizes and perhaps most importantly makes a prediction

    3. 3 Network Realities Rapidly evolving application requirements make bandwidth needs, traffic patterns and service delivery requirements highly unpredictable Operators require the ability to rapidly respond to a multitude of customer requirements for on demand Ethernet based services Optimization of infrastructure across wireless/wireline networks for ubiquitous connectivity
