How to achieve transformation successfully?

Target : To use unified infrastructure
Easily to deliver legacy and new services
Significantly to reduce CAPEX & OPEX

Broadband stands for the future of fixed network carriers

Legacy services are still the main revenue source in quite
long time
The most difficult part is to choose a suitable access
layer solution
Different service interface, different access technologies
More than 60% investments on access network
More than 80% OPEX cost spent on this part

The way to construct NG access network

Scenario 1
Dated PSTN network with highest CAPEX & OPEX, operators plan to replace the
existing infrastructures by one multi services network to provide BB VAS while
preserving all traditional services, like BT, KPN, BTC,

Scenario 2
Advanced PSTN network, focused on developing BB network to provide BB
services Via DSLAM /FTTx, plan to consolidate multi network into single BB
infrastructure based on all IP technologies, like FT, TI, Telefonica
DSLAM becomes the central element for future voice offers for VoIP (use of
ADSL). Will a place remain for service on analog lines ?

Summary& Understanding
The maturity of AN is one of the key factors as access network
CAPEX occupies 70% of total.
Only MSAN has been deployed commercially in large scale and IP
DSLAM TDM/VOIP mode is under researching.
IP DSLAM+VOIP/VOBB could not been deployed in large scale
without E2E QoS in the whole network
Unified multi-service network based on IP technologies is the
common trend
Revenue from legacy services should be seriously concerned
Requirements of NG-AN solution

Legacy service migration abilities towards NGN, IMS

Future proved BB services availabilities
Powerful OAM and services provision abilities
Flexible adaption abilities

MSAN, the best solution for transformation
