12 12 Ethernet over PDH

13 13 What is Ethernet over PDH (EoPDH) ? PDH (Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy) –Term to collectively refer to T1/E1 and T3/E3 circuits EoPDH enables Ethernet and IP services to be delivered over PDH access networks Two ‘competing’ technologies to deliver EoPDH –MLPPP/BCP over PDH (RFC1990 / RFC3518) for encapsulation, bonding and bridging –GFP over PDH (G.8040) GFP (G.7040) for encapsulation, VCAT (G.7041) and LCAS (G.7042) for bonding EoPDH Equipment support –MLPPP/BCP supported on essentially all routers and new service edge aggregation devices –GFP supported on new types of devices Service Bandwidth Options –Up to 12Mbps (8 bonded T1s) –Up to 16Mbps (8 bonded E1s) –Up to 32Mbps (1 E3) –Up to 45Mbps (1 T3)

14 14 Why Ethernet over PDH ? Enables multiple revenue generating services over a single Ethernet UNI –E.g., Internet access, managed VoIP, Ethernet Access to managed IP VPN, E-Line and E-LAN L2 VPNs Works over existing copper PDH access networks with no speed or distance limitations Provides Ethernet UNI handoff to subscriber Utilizes T1s, E1s, T3 or E3 –T1s are the most widely deployed access network technology for businesses data networking in North America Enables next generation Radio Access Networks from cell sites to interface to existing microwave radio equipment and PDH backhaul circuits Addresses underserved sub-10Mbps Business Ethernet services market only addressable via copper access networks –$5B cumulative service revenue between 2006-2010* –Less than 14% of U.S. commercial buildings have access to fiber* Fits within service provider’s existing network infrastructure –Service providers have offered T1 Internet Access for businesses for years Still a significantly growing business –EoPDH requires no significant network operation or infrastructure changes * Vertical Systems Group

15 15 How does it work? Ethernet Frames enter EoPDH Customer Located Equipment (CLE) and encapsulated –Into MLPPP or GFP for transport over PDH network LEC/PTT network multiplexes T1s/E1s into channelized DS3 or E3 circuits Channelized DS3/E3 circuits terminated on EoPDH edge aggregation device –T1s/E1s extracted from channelized DS3/E3 circuits –MLPPP or GFP terminated and Ethernet Frame Extracted Each subscribers’ Ethernet frames mapped to S-VLANs (EVC) –To preserve subscriber’s C-VLAN IDs and 802.1p CoS S-VLAN-tagged Ethernet frame (EVC) to Ethernet Transport Network –Providing transport for EVPL, E-LAN or access to IP services, e.g., Internet access Bonded T1s/E1s LEC/PTT Ethernet Frame IP ETH MLPPP or GFP Channelized DS3/E3 EoPDHCLE ETH EoPDHAggregator Ethernet Transport Network Enterprise or Cell Site Subscriber Ethernet Frame in S-VLAN / EVC Enables multiple revenue generating services over same PDH infrastructure IP ETH IP ETH MLPPP or GFP

16 16 How is EoPDH (T1 example) deployed? Service provider places CLE router on customer premise –Connects to network via 1 or more T1s Service provider wholesales DS1s to reach customer –ILEC multiplexes DS1 circuits to channelized DS3 Service provider sets up PPP/MLPPP (or GFP) sessions –between CLE device and Service Edge Aggregator Service Edge Aggregator maps subscribers into EVCs (S-VLANs) –To handoff to Ethernet transport network ILEC Network NxT1 chDS3 Provider PoP/CO EoPDH CLE, e.g., router Ethernet Transport Network T1 PPP or GFP session MLPPP or GFP session EoPDH Service Edge Aggregator

34 34 MEF Certifications Program: Access Technologies The MEF Certification Program will address access technologies to ensure conformance with Carrier Ethernet attributes The initial phase will address the conformance to ITU standards in delivering Ethernet services via copper, fiber and EPON access The initial phase also includes wireless Ethernet mesh access certification testing, based on forthcoming IEEE 802.11T, ensuring total coverage and mobility of Ethernet services Liaison with Cable Labs looking towards aligning Ethernet over HFC work with MEF specifications

35 35 Certification Leads to Interoperability Lets vendors cooperate to build complementary “end-to-end” solutions –Metro Core, Aggregation and Access Edge offerings –Providers have their own supplier ecosystem in place and aren’t looking for a whole new solution Interoperability among vendors leads to more favorable market conditions –Interoperability provides a wealth of choices –Lowers the barrier of entry to new markets or applications by reducing the attraction of proprietary architectures
