Hatteras Solutions Overview
In Mobile Wireless Serviced
Providers’ GPRS/EDGE networks and the evolution toward 3G/3.5G wireless data
services using CDMA2000, EV-DO and EV-DO rev.A (Evolution Data Optimized) broadband technologies are
changing the requirements for backhaul from the cell sites to the core network.
A very limited proportion of cell sites are being served by fiber (less than
5%), most with only 1-2 T1/E1 copper backhaul links. Additional capacity is required
for these growing data services, but TDM access does not meet the exponential
bandwidth growth and resiliency needs of today’s mobile wireless backhaul.
Mid-Band Ethernet Services can
cost effectively deliver bandwidth to a cell site. Two pairs from the existing
copper infrastructure are required for each T1/E1 to deliver 1.5Mbps/2Mbps
respectively. Mid-Band Ethernet delivers 4 to 7 times more capacity over the
same number of copper pairs. Increased capacity can be provisioned simply
through the addition of bonded channels, growing up to 40 Mbps or more of low
overhead Ethernet capacity. Unlike T1/E1s, the resiliency of the MBE bonded
pairs infrastructure allows service to continue uninterrupted in the event of
the failure of a pair whereas an NxT1/E1 solution results in an outage.
