The Alcatel-Lucent 7450 Ethernet Service Switch (ESS) is a high performance MPLS-enabled Carrier Ethernet platform providing high-speed Ethernet service delivery and high-density service aggregation at the Carrier Ethernet service edge. With industry-leading throughput, density, reliability and service depth, the 7450 ESS is the platform of choice to enable wide scale Carrier Ethernet adoption, implementation, and transformation.
The Alcatel-Lucent 7450 ESS is the industry’s most advanced MPLSenabled Carrier Ethernet platform. With terabit capacity, leading port densities, advanced MPLS capabilities, and best-in-class service attributes all in a highly reliable and feature-rich platform, the 7450 ESS is a field-proven, highly-scalable platform designed to support residential triple play services, business VPN services and mobile backhaul applications at the Carrier Ethernet service edge. The 7450 ESS integrates the scalability, resiliency and predictability of MPLS along with the bandwidth and economics of Ethernet to enable a metro-wide, converged packet aggregation infra structure using Carrier Ethernet to deliver next-generation services.
The Metro Ethernet Forum certified (MEF-9, MEF-14) Alcatel-Lucent 7450 ESS provides unmatched service depth to set a new market benchmark for the delivery of advanced services with predictable, differentiated service level agreements (SLAs). Advanced service delivery includes both multipoint and point-to-point business VPN services, such as virtual private LAN services (VPLS), Ethernet LAN (ELAN) services,
Ethernet access to IP VPNs, virtual leased line (VLL) services, Ethernet Line (ELine) services, and Ethernet access to enhanced Internet services. It also includes high-density, service-aware aggregation of residential triple
play and mobile traffic over IP/MPLS infrastructures.
Leveraging the carrier-optimized and highly fault-tolerant Service Router Operating System (SR OS) — a common element across the Alcatel-Lucent Service Router portfolio — the 7450 ESS provides advanced hierarchical quality of service (H-QoS), highly flexible serviceaware QoS, and operations, administra tion and maintenance (OA&M) toolkit to enable next-generation service delivery. For more advanced service delivery, the 7450 ESS features Integrated Service Adapters (ISAs) to provide high performance L3 through L7 application-specific processing for the monetization and optimization of advanced residential triple play and business VPN services.
The Alcatel-Lucent 7450 ESS is available in five chassis options:
•7450 ESS-12: 12-slot platform, delivering up to 1 Tb/s (half duplex) of throughput
•7450 ESS-7: 7-slot platform, delivering up to 500 Gb/s (half duplex) of throughput
•7450 ESS-6: 6-slot platform, delivering up to 320 Gb/s (half duplex) of throughput
•7450 ESS-6V: 6-slot platform, delivering up to 320 Gb/s (half duplex) of throughput
•7450 ESS-1: Single-slot platform, delivering up to 40 Gb/s (half duplex) of throughput
With five platform options, the Alcatel-Lucent 7450 ESS allows service providers, ILECs, multiservice operators (MSOs), mobile operators, city carriers, Internet service providers, application service providers and industry and public sector (IPS) customers to build-out costoptimized, next-generation infrastructures for a right-sized solution for any network environment. Each system offers leading throughput and density, the ability to mix and match a wide range of Ethernet and packet over SONET/SDH interface adapters, and exceptional portability of adapters across platforms.
Alcatel-Lucent is committed to providing environmentally friendly solutions. Energy efficiency and environmental responsibility are built into the platform design, research and development programs, manufacturing processes, and life cycle management. As a result, the 7450 ESS delivers some of the highest levels of energy efficiency in the market and can play a major role in helping service providers reduce their overall energy consumption and carbon footprint.
