Market Trend: Cellular Operators move the Tradtional RAN to IP-RAN, Why? • Backhaul of BSS/UTRAN is one of the major contributors to the high cost of building out and running a mobile network. • Cellular operators have massive deployment of PDH/SDH traffic, most reliable solution for GSM and R’99 UMTS backhaul. • PDH/SDH Mobile Backhaul solution does not seem flexible enough to efficiently deliver statistical/bursty traffic. Cellular operators would like to maximize revenues and margins by converging mobile flows over a unified Packet Switched Network infrastructure in order to reduce both Capex and Opex by using PW.
What is PW? • Pseudowire is a mechanism that emulates the essential attributes of a telecommunications service over a packet-switched network • TDM leased line, ATM or ETH • It defines a way to packetize and encapsulate data and create a logical link between two network entities • Pseudowire technology is an enabler for the migration scenarios, with circuit and service emulation of legacy services over packet networks PWE3 #1 PWE3 #2 PSN TDM ATM HDLC, ETH etc. TDM ATM HDLC, ETH etc. Tunnel CLE/CPE CLE/CPE Service Service Pseudowire Emulated Service

Why emulate the ETH-Node over PW? OAM • ETH PW allows the ACE-3000 to backhaul ETH/IP traffic coming from NodeBs toward the RNC over IP/MPLS networks • ETH PW on the ACE-3000 can be used together with TDM and ATM PW mechanisms in cases where 2G BTS and 3G Node are collocated on the same site Benefits: • Unified ATM/TDM/ETH services over IP/MPLS • Automatic provisioning to all Cellular Backhaul services • TDM/ATM/ETH OAM support over IP/MPLS networks n x E1/T1 Node B/BTS RNC ACE-3400 ACE-3220/3105 PW (ETH,ATM,TDM) PW (ETH,ATM,TDM) Packet Switched Network ETH STM-1/OC-3c ETH IP Node B 3’rd party vendor Multiservice device
