1. Overview of new Nortel Networks Small Site Solution (Nortel Networks Confidential)
Introducing BCM 50
Author: Tom Price

2. What is it?
A new hardware and software platform evolution for Business Communications Manager class of products.
A new platform that delivers the value of BCM (TDM and IP converged voice + applications) down to small sites
3 to 30 users,
either in stand-alone or
networked configurations
Value based on overall system cost, including
operations costs in installation and
support costs and
overhead costs and
overall effectiveness.

3. The Evolution of BCM We have taken all of the value of BCM!
All of the hundreds of Telephony features that have evolved from Norstar
All of the Voice Processing features such as Voice Mail, Unified messaging, Auto Attendant and Customer Controlled Routing
Call Center and CTI
IP Telephony Stations and Trunks
And Centralized Management
BCM 200
BCM50
BCM 400
And delivered on a platform for the very small site!

4. How does It fit in the Nortel Networks Portfolio of Solutions?
It fills an existing void for the very small site

5. BCM 50 Complements the BCM portfolio
Call Center
BCM50 supports Basic Call Center with up to 10 agents and 2 skill sets.
BCM200/400 adds Professional Call Center for more complex configurations
IVR
BCM50 Auto Attendant and Customer Controlled Routing can route calls to a Centralized IVR
BCM200/400 provides on site IVR
Router
BCM50 has models with Ethernet Router with VPN, and DSL Router built in.
BCM200/400 can support integrated Frame Relay and ISDN data
Mobility
BCM50 supports T7406 work space mobility up to 2 base stations and 6 handsets
BCM200/400 supports IP or Digital mobility solutions

6. Flexibility & Functionality
Start from a compact, VoIP capable main base chassis with support for analog trunks, analog stations and digital stations
Add to this configuration using the BCM50 Expansion Chassis
A full suite of MBM modules is supported
Also available with a choice of 2 integrated router cards
MBMs Supported
4x16 Combo

Compact Base Unit
max 4 analog trunks
max 4 analog stations
max 12 digital stations
max 32 IP stations
max 24 IP trunks
2 RJ-45 LAN ports
Expansion chassis
Digital stations
Digital trunking
Analog trunking

ADSL to ethernet router - or
Ethernet to ethernet router

7. Flexible Configurations
Ports on the main chassis are enabled through the application of soft keys: Analog trunk interfaces, Analog station interfaces, Digital station interfaces, IP sets, IP trunks, Expansion interfaces.
Capacity expansion is enabled by purchasing more keys for the base unit or through the addition of MBMs.
This supports the creation of capacity based commercial bundles with a great deal of flexibility:
Customers of the BCM50 will be able to choose and pay for the capacity they require.
Optimize the pricing down to the smallest line configurations

8. Traditional Voice + VoIP
Complete telephony feature set from BCM 3.6
All legacy digital telephone sets!
Investment protection for existing Norstar and BCM customers
2 x 10/100 Ethernet LAN ports
Up to 32 IP telephones
i2004, i2002 and the new i2001
i2050 soft client
DCHP server included for management of IP sets
Up to 24 IP trunks
H.323 V4
Internal H.323 routing table or external gatekeeper
G711 A law, G729,A,B
T.38 fax
G.168 echo cancellation

9. Flexible Installation Options
The main unit and the expansion chassis share the same plastic packaging
Units can be stacked (with positive alignment features) for desktop or shelf mount configurations
The compact size allows for side by side configuration to fit into a standard 19 inch rack mount . Tab details ensure that the two units are exactly aligned
Wall mountable using the optional wall mount bracket which features an integrated cable management bay for tidy cable dressing
Side by side and stack can be used in combination

13. Built on “Nortel Corporate Linux”
BCM50 will be the first LPS product built on Linux
Advantages include:
Improved security environment
Direct developer access to the OS layer for fast issue resolution
Allows ownership of the strategic direction and ensuring an effective, long term support strategy
Tap into a huge community for OS support and functions designed for the Linux OS
Nortel Corporate Linux is a Nortel initiative first applied to our major call servers.
Developed for the high reliability, secure carrier market
In 2 years of exposure on the compact call server, there have been 0 linux kernel issues
Fully supported in Nortel

14. A New Management Structure
Why change the management structure?
Simplification!
Ease of installation
New client application for management
Framework is not specific to BCM50
“Data cartridge” gives the framework the personality to manage the BCM50
Future product direction could use this framework
Standards based
Transport using CIM-XML over HTTP(S) to access data model
Used by client GUI and available to 3rd party management applications
Task Oriented
Simpler – Less clicking and more programming
Supports traditional Norstar set based management
Supports remote dial up management through a flexible internal soft modem connection to a remote client application
Multi-element management using NCM

15. Single Element Management
Set Based
Existing Norstar management
Coverage only for core telephony and core applications
Allows those who are trained and efficient in using the Norstar methods to continue to use them
Client Based
Very fast intuitive presentation
Standards based implementation (CIM-XML)
Task oriented versus functionally grouped
Lower the training hurdle
Future proof architecture
Complete FCAPS coverage

16. Multi Element ManagementIP
Network Operations Center – NOC
Network Configuration Manager - NCM
Multi-element server and database
Same client framework for the management stations located anywhere on the network
PSTN
Workstations
Can be anywhere on the IP network or remote using modem off the PSTN network
At any station, the framework can run a single element management session to a specific system or run multi-element back through the server
