The Alcatel-Lucent Integrated Service Adaptor Ethernet Switch (ISA-ES) series circuit packs provide
feature-rich Ethernet service capabilities for the undisputed market leaders of multiservice networks,
the Alcatel-Lucent Optical Multiservice Network (OMSN) products.
ISA-ES1 and ES4 variants provide native Fast Ethernet (FE) and Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) interfaces
and Ethernet over SDH (EoS) ports within 1-Gb to 2.5-Gb switching engines.

Figure 1. End-to-end data-services management
The Alcatel-Lucent OMSN family of
multisevice nodes are deployed worldwide. The ISA–ES modules, with their
capability to aggregate and switch
Ethernet into SDH transport, offer
service providers a powerful tool to
leverage their SDH investments to
offer Ethernet services.
Carrier-grade Ethernet must conform
to stringent performance standards
with high availability and layered
network and service management.
SDH infrastructures built on the AlcatelLucent OMSN products have powerful
Quality of Service (QoS) management
with high availability and resiliency.
Integrated Ethernet services based on
the ISA-ES are simple to implement with
embedded end-to-end data-service
management. The ISA-ES empowers
network transformation for service
providers seeking to gain maximum
return from their network investments
(see Figure 1).

The ISA-ES series meets the Ethernet
technology needs of Tier-1 and Tier-2
service providers, service-provider
carriers, multisystem operators or mobile
service operators (MSOs), cable operators,
power utilities and government
institutions.
Each ISA-ES module has a configurable
IP address and User Datagram Protocol
(UDP) port for the network management
to manage Ethernet services, including
implementation, alarms retrieval and
QoS Performance Monitoring (PM).
ISA ES1 and ES4 circuit-pack
overview
• Electrical and optical FE/GigE
interfaces, with Small Form
Factor Pluggable (SFP) optics
• A comprehensive set of:
¬ Ethernet switching features
(802.1d/Q/ad)
¬ Resiliency features: xSTP, Link
Aggregation Group (LAG), link
capacity adjustment scheme
(LCAS) and SDH-based protection
¬ QoS features: for example,
policing, priority marking,
per class queuing and WDRR

¬ Ethernet PM counters
¬ Ethernet Operations, Administration
and Maintenance (OA&M) suite
(ITU-T Y.1731/IEEE 802.1ag)
• EoS adaptation suite, using generic
framing procedure (GFP) (G.7041),
link access procedure over SDH
(LAPS), vitual concatenation (VCAT)
(G.707) standards
• Flexible data architecture options
(see Figure 2):
¬ Point-to point
¬ Hub and spoke
¬ Multipoint-to-multipoint
Figure 3. SLA support
• Optical transport options within
OMSN products:
¬ Multiplex section protection (MSP):
1+1, 1+N
¬ Multiplex Section-Shared
Protection Ring (MS-SPRING) 2f
¬ Subnetwork Connection Protection
(SNCP) I/N
• Efficient network management with
dedicated Ethernet manager suite
To help meet service level agreements
(SLAs), each ISA-ES module allows service providers and carrier operators to
specify per flow QoS. Traffic is specified
by a set of parameters to control its maximum and mean rates and the relative
burst window size in bytes (see Figure 3).

• Guaranteed traffic
• Best effort traffic
• Regulated traffic
The Alcatel-Lucent ISA-ES1 and ISA-ES4
modules support one (1) and four (4)
virtual container (VC)-4s aggregate trunk-
ing capacity respectively (see Figure 4
and Figure 5). The ISA-ES1 supports
three (3) or eight (8) E/FE ports and the
ISA-ES4 supports eight (8) E/FE ports
and one (1) GigE port. The ISA-ES
modules can be configured to support
a wide range of VC-12, VC-3 and VC-4
combinations for flexible, full featured
Ethernet over SDH. Figure 6 charts the
aggregate bandwidth transported for
various VC-X x Nv VC concatenation
combinations on an ISA-ES. Table 1
presents a detailed view of the ISA-ES
apacities in terms of maximum VC-
c
12/3/4, VC groups (VCG) by VC-12/3/4
and VC-12/3/4 per VCG.
Hosting from one to several ISA-ES
cards, the possible OMSN equipment
configurations are outlined in Tables 2
and 3. The total number of Ethernet
(Eth)/FE per node is directly related to
the number of hosted ISA cards. Where
larger quantities of Eth/FE ports are
required, the Alcatel-Lucent 1850
Transport Services Switch (TSS) family
is an ideal fit. Tables 4 and 5 present
a detailed view of the available ISA-ES
modules and the Alcatel-Lucent OMSN
equipment on which they are
upported.
