Alcatel-Lucent 7342 Intelligent Service Access Manager (ISAM) Fiber to the User (FTTU)
The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU enables IP converged triple play services by offering maximum bandwidth and QoS over fiber access. Its FSAN standards compliant GPON implementation is unmatched in features — 2.5 Gb/s bandwidth, 20 km reach, ONT Management and Control Interface (OMCI), and the most robust QoS for triple play services.
Optical Broadband from the Broadband Leader The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 Intelligent Services Access Manager (ISAM) Fiber to the User (FTTU) system provides you with a 21st-century platform for bundled services and offers a wide range of network applications, including fiber access to residential and business subscribers, as well as subscribers in multiple dwelling or tenant units (MDU/MTU). With the Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU, you gain a long-term strategic advantage over your competition.
The Alcatel-Lucent ISAM technology is also designed for wire-speed performance with cost-effective Ethernet switching and enhanced Layer 2/Layer 3 functions. The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU combines ISAM performance with a comprehensive integrated solution for fiber access. With this technology, you have the flexibility to deliver RF video, IPTV, data, legacy and next generation voice – as well as backhaul 2G, 3G and WiMAX radio access, all on one platform.
Lower Operational Costs Increasing revenue from new services is only part of the value offered by the Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU solution. Service providers are beginning to document the operational savings achieved with optical access networks. By using passive elements, the fiberbased Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU solution delivers cost savings that can result in between 40 and 60 percent lower labor expenses compared with using existing copper networks.
A Scalable Full-Service Solution With the Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU system, you also get the best-in-class solution for deployment of GPON-compliant full service access networks. The system is the result of years of R&D going back to the mid-1990s. Indeed, Alcatel-Lucent is a leader in PON technology development and has been instrumental in the work of the FSAN Group and the standardization of optical access by the ITU-T.
Figure 3 illustrates the elements of a complete Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU end-to-end solution. The solution includes a packet optical line terminal (P-OLT), located in the CO, that terminates PON interfaces connected to many outlying ONTs.
For IPTV, the Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU supports the Internet group management protocol (IGMP) proxy/snooping function within the P-OLT and ONT, permitting dynamic multicast of video channels. The GigE/10GigE interfaces at each P-OLT, the GPON interfaces, and the ONTs receive and forward IP video traffic using multicasting. In addition to IP video, the Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU system includes an optional integrated RF overlay solution for video services.
A scalable architecture, full GPON standards compliance with unmatched performance, IP multiservice, and a common management system for all access networks make the Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU your most cost-effective optical access solution on the market today. The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ONT I-Series is designed to deliver triple play services to single-family homes.
End-to-End Solution The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU is part of a complete end-to-end solution for optical broadband from Alcatel-Lucent. Leveraging our leadership in broadband access, Alcatel-Lucent has developed a solution with a robust feature set ideal for mass deployment. It uses a cost-effective, standards-compliant passive optical network that revolutionizes your access network infrastructure.
21st Century Access from a Leader in Access Optical technology has been successfully deployed within the network core to increase capacity. The access network — the “last mile” — has remained a bottleneck, limiting the deployment of new services. Demand for broadband services has resulted in DSL technologies being deployed on the existing copper-based access network to increase capacity.
