ITEXPO Anaheim 2015 Interview with Secure Infrastructure & Service

Tags: secure infrastructure service

FTTH is by far more challenging than xDSL due to its use of point-to-multipoint technology. This makes it harder for service providers to offer self-service solutions to the subscribers. Once an ONT is installed, it is not straightforward exactly where it is located in the shared PON covering a wide area and a large number of users. Therefore each and single ONT installation or replacement requires field dispatch to the subscriber home. ONT Easy Start is the solution to this challenge but also the means to increase customer experience.

The Bell Labs Prize is a competition for innovators from participating countries around the globe that seeks to recognize proposals that 'change the game' in the field of information and communications technologies by a factor of 10, and provides selected innovators the unique opportunity to collaborate with Bell Labs researchers to help realize their vision. In 2014, professor Patrick Reynaert (KU Leuven, Belgium) win the second prize with his proposal "RF through Plastics". Professor Reynaert proposes to develop a new communication technology based on small CMOS radio interfaces that are connected through inexpensive plastic waveguides, enabling much higher speed data communications across several meters, such as inter- or intra-chassis communications, and at a far lower cost (and easier) than equivalent optical communications.

Network functions virtualization is more than just virtualization of network functions. To make the promise of NFV a reality and deliver network services in their new form reliably, at scale, and with a different cost structure, new challenges need to be overcome. Some questions the industry faces include: How to achieve high reliability when using low cost commodity hardware? How to manage and optimise distributed cloud sites placed in PoPs? How to effectively use automation and open source to drive costs down? These questions are answered through a new segment of solutions called “NFV Platform.” This session will discuss the key attributes that are needed to build such a platform and include lessons learned from AlcatelLucent’s own journey toward NFV as well as insights from NFV projects around the world.

Innovative applications for civil drones

Parrot, the French company famed for its automotive and multimedia products, launched into action with its AR.Drone in 2010. The concept was simple: a drone quadricopter equipped with two cameras and controlled using Wi-Fi from your smartphone. Over 250,000 models of this toy have been sold worldwide. It’s a great toy and is easy to pilot, albeit within a certain range. In fact, Wi-Fi has a limited range (less than 100 meters), and depending on the environment, can stop working.

All it took was the Alcatel-Lucent engineers, the prototypers of the Bell Labs Acceleration Platform and the engineers from Parrot to get together to discuss a proof of concept for piloting an AR.Drone using 4G/LTE."

GreenTouch introduces a new technology that will dramatically reduce energy consumption in fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) networks, as well as other applications. The breakthrough Bit-Interleaved Passive Optical Network (Bi-PON) technology is the second major milestone reached by the consortium. When deployed, it will enable a power reduction of 30 times over current technologies while improving performance and reducing cost.

FTTH is expected to nearly double over the next five years, reaching 142 million subscribers worldwide by 2016, according to ABI Research. With Bi-PON instead of the current optical technology in use, consumers will see a sizeable reduction in their energy consumption, saving the environment and dramatically reducing their energy bills. Significantly, the impact will be the equivalent carbon of taking half a million cars from the roads! That's roughly all the cars in the city of San Francisco.

Laura Merling, Senior Vice President, Application Enablement, discusses the launch of Alcatel-Lucent's API Consulting and Professional Services practice.

Alcatel-Lucent packages API know-how to help communications service providers tap into the new data driven economy

The Alcatel-Lucent API Lifecycle Methodology is a new consulting and services practice, designed to give communications service providers the expertise and technology to better manage interactions with application developers.

These new practices will bring service providers the tools they need to effectively organize and implement the creation, management and use of application programming interfaces (APIs), which software developers rely upon when writing applications and which support the sharing of data and content between applications.

Alcatel-Lucent's flexible methodology follows three phases of Definition, Design and Deployment. Each phase can be offered on a standalone basis or combined depending on where the service provider is with their current API strategy.

“There are people that need to communicate. When they communicate the service needs to be there. It needs to be ready.”

lightRadio Metro Cell Express prepares your network for the future. For a network architecture that enables scalable metro cells deployment, the use of Iuh over Iub gives superior performance. Careful planning is also required so that metro cells are efficiently deployed and brought into service with site visits being kept to a minimum.

Metro cells can be easily installed by a single person. And by using cells that support SON technology, you can significantly reduce network planning, deployment and optimization costs.

Engaging with Multiple Stakeholders

In Andy’s line of work, his clients rely on him and his network.

“If we fail to provide the connectivity they have become used to, our reputation suffers and we simply cannot have that.”

Being able to offer connectivity hotspots that can cope with increased spikes in demand benefits everyone. Deploying Metro Cells throughout the city gives us that opportunity – but there’s a need to identify and secure locations.

Also important, the commissioning and integrating lightRadio Metro Cell Express into the network is far simpler and more cost effective than macro cells. And with RF positioning no longer an issue, a lot more sites become available. The unobtrusive design and compact size of the metro cells also make it easier to comply with the municipal red tape.
