ADTRAN streamlines backhaul service deployment into ONE platform


ADTRAN, a provider of networking solutions, announced
that carriers can leverage its Optical Networking Edge (ONE) portfolio and
Advanced Operational Environment (AOE) to eliminate the need for
capital-intensive overlay builds to support 4G backhaul services. 


The combination of ONE and AOE assures stringent SLAs are
met as carriers look to improve their competiveness as they offer broadband
services and cell-site backhaul services from a single architecture.


In today’s competitive access market, a tremendous strain
is being put on network access infrastructures as wholesale service providers
look to support backhaul traffic from Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) who
are offering more 4G-enabled devices capable of delivering premium, higher-bandwidth
video and data services. 


ADTRAN’s solution provides scalable services separation
for each service provider, assuring a high quality of experience for both
residential and mobile broadband services.


ADTRAN addresses this opportunity with its web-based SLA
monitoring tool and cell-optimized wavelength service capabilities so that each
type of traffic can be guaranteed and provisioned as needed. This enables
ADTRAN’s customers to get the most out of their network assets and grow
their overall addressable market opportunity in both mobile and residential
backhaul applications. 


Total Access 5000 ONE system delivers both wavelength and
Ethernet switching separation, enabling carriers to cost-effectively capitalize
on both the growing mobile backhaul and residential broadband business
opportunities without risking quality of service (QoS) issues symptomatic of
many multi-service solutions.


The ADTRAN ONE solution eliminates QoS impacting network
bottlenecks by delivering MEF-certified, wavelength separated Ethernet services
to residential customers, business customers and cell sites over the same
network infrastructure. Carriers can now deliver important service isolation
for each individual mobile network operator that may share a single cell site
or simultaneously offer residential broadband and wholesale services.


We developed ONE to solve the bandwidth bottleneck at
the edge of the network and AOE to change the management paradigm to focus on
the service rather than the equipment,” said Robert Conger, ADTRAN Carrier
Ethernet product line manager.
