Transformation steps and key technologies
Multimedia content continues to increase traffic loads beyond current capacities
INCREASING
INCREASING
11 CAPACITY
CAPACITY
Continuing capacity upgrades first in the Last Mile and Aggregation, then Metro
More throughput per RF channel and per ‘lambda’, and more ‘lambdas’ per fibre
Packet based multi-service aggregation close to Access for higher link utilisation
AGGREGATION
AGGREGATION
22 EXTENSION
EXTENSION
Lowered latency with shorter links and improved ring based resilience for LTE services
Aggregation nodes will migrate to within few hops of the Access edge
NG-SDH (MSTP) heavily deployed over the last decade but carries high cost of ownership
CONTROL

33 EVOLUTION
EVOLUTION
MPLS & MPLS-TP are more efficient and increasingly more mature (standardisation)
LSP based traffic management will extend to the edge to achieve unified network control
LTE introduces Evolved Packet Core (EPC) with ‘flat’ IP architecture

NEC’s Vision & Concept for backhaul solutions
A Designed for Full Convergence - at the core of the concept is the Converged Packet Node, a modular
network element that integrates a comprehensive set of transport and transmission features, resulting in
reduced costs and long investment lifetime
B Designed for Self Management – with NEC’s Intelligent Service Networking facility the platform will
deliver an integrated package of network management software tools for auto -provisioning, and end-to-
end service management for quick time-to-revenue and low maintenance costs
C Designed for Network Sharing – new control plane technologies will allow multi-policy network sharing,
a foundation for NEC’s Business Model Innovation where operators can increase revenues from existing
infrastructure or reduce investment in new assets
