1850 TSS-100

Transport Service Switch

The Alcatel-Lucent 1850 Transport Service Switch (TSS)-100, a new class of multiservice transport platform for metro-core and regional applications, supports any mix of traffic, from all-circuit to allpacket. This universal switch uniquely addresses the transition from TDM/circuit to packet transport, eliminating the problems encountered when traditional platforms face data-traffic increases. The functional versatility of the 1850 TSS-100 allows operators to support current network demands, while positioning their infrastructure for the future growth in advanced service delivery and traffic.

Transforming transport networks

To stay profitable, operators must focus on new revenue-generating services while carefully controlling their cost structures. At the same time, new band- width-hungry services, such as triple play and Ethernet virtual private networks (VPNs), are redefiining the underlying transport-infrastructure requirements. These changes are driving the move from circuit-based transport, using TDM, to packet-based transport, using Ethernet in MANs and WANs.

Driven by end-user demand for new services, operator network capacity is growing rapidly, with these networks transporting a wide variety of traffic. Operators all need to assess how their existing metro and core networks will accommodate trends and transitions in traffic patterns.

The new-services introduction is probably the most critical factor to an operator’s success. The increasing demand for bandwidth to deliver new services is not reflected in comparable increases in revenue, presenting a signifiicant business challenge. The Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-100 helps operators maximize their profiitability by transporting any service mix while keeping tight control on costs.

Multitechnology support with the 1850 tss-100

The 1850 TSS-100 is a multiservice transport platform that supports any mix of traffic, from all-circuit to all-packet. Its unique, technologyindependent universal matrix switches packets or circuits in their native format and transports them as they are, optimizing overall network efficiency and applicability. This capability allows operators to address transitioning from TDM/circuit-based transport

to packet transport with the fexible provisioning of carrier Ethernet/transport, SONET, wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) and optical transport networks (OTNs).

The 1850 TSS-100 supports current and future traffic requirements by eliminating the scalability issues encountered by traditional multiservice provisioning platform (MSPP)/ multiservice transport platform (MSTP) solutions. The 1850 TSS-100 is the ideal building block for evolving transport networks, allowing operators to fexibly split increasing traffic demands among any combination of carrier transport technologies.
