Alcatel-Lucent 7330 ISAM FTTN

The Alcatel-Lucent 7330 Intelligent Services Access Manager (ISAM)

Fiber-to-the-Node (FTTN) takes the best of Alcatel-Lucent’s DSL

developments, and provides a unique set of capabilities that enables

you to deliver the most competitive triple play service offerings. Building

on Alcatel-Lucent’s leadership in broadband access, the Alcatel-Lucent

7330 ISAM FTTN addresses your growing requirement for a deep-fiber

access solution. This innovative platform enables you to offer IPTV and

other ultra-high bandwidth applications while leveraging your existing

copper plant. As a member of the ISAM family, the Alcatel-Lucent

7330 ISAM FTTN shares technology with the Alcatel-Lucent 7302 ISAM,

the industry’s first IP-based platform capable of delivering 100-percent

triple play services.

Power and Flexibility
for Your Unique Needs

Alcatel-Lucent has been the world
leader in DSL deployments since
the early development of the tech ­nol ogy. To date, Alcatel-Lucent has
shipped more than 143 million DSL
lines worldwide.

Market requirements for bandwidth
to the subscriber have increased
tremendously since the initial
deployments of DSL services. Each
change in market demand has been
anticipated and met with a new
technological breakthrough from
Alcatel-Lucent. The Alcatel-Lucent

7330 ISAM FTTN is part of Alcatel­Lucent’s continued worldwide lead ­ership in broadband innovation.

To meet the challenge of bringing
more bandwidth closer to the sub ­scriber, many of you are already
deploying the next wave of DSL
deploy ments by increasing fiber
pene tration in your access networks.
This new deep-fiber access delivers
non-blocking, ultra-high bandwidth
to each subscriber, enabling the deliv ­ery of rich communication and
enter t ainment services. Indeed, as
an evolutionary step toward a full
fiber network, FTTN provides the
most competitive service.

So, if you are a telecom service
provider, you will need to offer bun ­dled services that typically include IP
television (IPTV), as well as other
interactive services - in addition to
high-speed Internet (HSI) and voice.
The combination of IP services need ­ed to meet this strategic requirement
can increase the required bandwidth
to the subscriber from 2 or 3 Mb/s to
20 Mb/s, or more. With Alcatel­Lucent’s VDSL2, 20 Mb/s can be
delivered simultaneously to each port.
Moreover, greater bandwidths on indi ­vidual ports can also be delivered
depending on total system load and
loop lengths. Just as important, the
ability to bond allows more bandwidth
for customers deeper into the network.

Your challenge, put simply, is to pro ­vide additional subscriber bandwidth –
cost-effectively and efficiently.

Taking the Battle to a New Level

Halting the Siege

If you are a traditional ILEC service
provider, you are likely under siege.
Cable operators have attacked you
in the broadband and voice market.
By offering voice services, they have
begun to capture voice customers at
an accelerating rate. Competitive
local exchange carriers (CLECs) are
continuing to be a major factor, too.
So, in order to compete, you need to
take the battle to a new level and
introduce new technologies.

Broadband technology, and the many
IP services that it enables, are creating
a new battleground. Those companies
that deploy high-bandwidth connec ­tivity to the customer and effectively
develop and market IP services will
win the war.

IP services in the home are the
key to winning the battle against
your competition.

The good news is that FTTN economically increases the
available bandwidth to the subscriber while leveraging the
existing copper plant to keep costs down.

Technological Hurdles

The existing DSL network was engineered to provide
HSI access with down stream bandwidth between 0.5
and 2 Mb/s. Competition and increasing usage of the
broadband connection have driven HSI bandwidth
requirements into the 3 to 8 Mb/s range. However, the
deployment of IPTV service calls for a deep-fiber solution
in the access network. Bandwidth requirements for a
competitive triple play service require 20 Mb/s or more.
