The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 Intelligent Services Access Manager (ISAM) Fiber to the User (FTTU) system provides you with a 21
st
-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. You can offer any service mix with increased reliability and performance, while significantly lowering operational costs.
The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU uses Full Service Access Network (FSAN) standards compli­ant gigabit passive optical network (GPON) technology to multiplex any mix of voice, video or data in the central office (CO) onto a single fiber that is terminated at the subscriber’s premises. Each PON line supports 2.5 Gb/s downstream and 1.2 Gb/s upstream. In addition to GPON performance, PON lines can be extended up to 20 km with 32 subscribers per PON, or up to 64 subscribers per PON for shorter distances.
As the foundation of a cost-effective all-IP optical access network, the Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU system supports next-generation voice, data, and video services over IP using Ethernet interfaces while maintaining robust support for legacy services, such as plain old telephone service (POTS) and radio frequency (RF) video.
The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 system uses Alcatel-Lucent’s ISAM tech ­nology for intelligent IP-based access, enabl ing reuse of network deployment models and manage ­ment systems.

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 net works. 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. These savings are achieved in reduced subscriber contact associated with service orders, trouble reporting, outside plant operations, CO oper ations, and network operations. As shown in Figure 2, financial analysts see the opportunity to reduce longer term operating expenses with capital investment in FTTU.
The high degree of integration and the passive nature of the outside plant used in the Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU solution greatly simplify network opera ­tions. Your service provisioning can be largely automated because the network is designed to support a spectrum of services from day one, which is not the case in today’s copper networks. Services can be initiated and termi ­nated by your subscribers, saving labor costs that can be used for other aspects of customer care, such as improv ­ing customer loyalty. In addition, because multiple services are provided via a single network, customer care can be much more effective and offer more up-selling opportunities. This also decreases your churn, cutting back on marketing costs for individual services and order generation.

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. The Alcatel-Lucent FTTU solution includes four differ ent types of ONTs: Indoor ONTs (ONT I-Series) for single family homes; Outdoor ONTs (ONT O-Series) for single family homes and Small Office Home Offices (SOHOs); Business ONTs (ONT B-Series); and Low Profile Multiple Dwelling/Tenant ONTs for up to 12 living units or small businesses (LP-MDU-ONTs).
The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU solution supports longer reach from the CO to the subscriber — up to 20 kilometers (12.4 miles). Each fiber terminated at the P-OLT
in the CO can be split using optical splitters, which enables the 7342 to serve up to 64 ONTs located at outlying subscriber sites. The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 FTTU performs service differentiation and traffic flow prioritization in the ONT and P-OLT. The solution grooms voice traffic and forwards it to the PSTN voice gateway — the GenBand G6 using GigE interfaces. Data traffic is groomed and forward ed to a broadband service aggregator (BSA)
Figure 3. Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU in a Network
using multiple GigE and 10 GigE interfaces. Traffic flow prioritization is performed at all interfaces using up to 8 queues for different service types. Traffic flow grooming is per ­formed by using per service or per subscriber virtual LANs (VLANs) in the Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU and virtual private LAN service (VPLS) instances in the BSA. The VPLS instances are terminated at the BSR, which is connected to the IP routed network.
