The
Tellabs® 8660 edge switch
enables service providers to build a managed MPLS access and regional network as a long term solution for cost-efficient and managed delivery of mobile transport, Ethernet services and IP based services.
The Tellabs 8660 edge switch is an IP/MPLS-based switch with thorough implementation of carrier-class functions. Thanks to its distributed switching and modular architecture, it has low initial cost of deployment and excellent scalability. Tellabs 8660 can cover all locations of the mobile network between the core network and local exchange sites. It has all the features needed for 2G to 3G mobile evolution and fulfils the requirements of network convergence and fixed line services.
Customer Benefits:
- Optimized mobile traffic handoff to radio network controllers (RNC). Tellabs 8660 edge switch enables operators to optimize their mobile transport by offering a cost efficient solution to optimize the traffic hand off to RNCs and Base Station Controllers (BSC).
- Lower the cost of radio access network (RAN) transport whether leased line, radio or fixed based infrastructure by consolidating the NodeB traffic and various protocols into a single uplink.
- Allowing convergence by delivering corporate Ethernet and IP VPN services together with residential broadband service aggregation and mobile transport over one platform.
- Efficient use of network capacity with statistical multiplexing and advanced Quality-of-Service support optimized for mixed voice, data and video traffic.
- Significant savings in operational and maintenance costs with end-to-end management of services throughout the entire service life-cycle enabling high network availability time.
- Cost-efficient scalability even from small site configurations to larger hub configurations through unique element architecture.
- Future proof solution that meets the 3GPP R99 ATM as well as R5 IP and Ethernet transport requirements.
Product Features:
- Support of whole mix of MPLS pseudo wire technologies enables the delivery of Ethernet, ATM, Frame Relay, HDLC and TDM on the same platform and transformation to IP when ever needed.
- Hardware-based forwarding enables high and predictable performance despite of complex service requirements.
- Carrier-class reliability with comprehensive element and network level redundancy functionality to minimize network downtime.
- Quality-of-Service implementation that ensures strict service guarantees for premium services and possibility to overbook best effort traffic to optimize bandwidth usage in entire network.
- Unique architecture where switching is distributed to all line cards to maximize the interface capacity and keep the basic configuration simple and cost efficient.
- Flexible and easy element configurations with a range of freely selectable interface modules and a single interface concentrator to ensure optimal inventory management.
