Your Opportunity in Ethernet over Copper Services

VINTRODUCTION

Demand for more bandwidth and service sophistication continues to rise quickly across every telecom segment. For small/medium businesses, municipalities, and cellular operators, obtaining higher-bandwidth connectivity to the wide-area network is often dicult. The cost of running ﬁber to the premise is prohibitively high for many in these segments, limiting them to the same T1/E1based services they’ve been using for years.

Fortunately, technology advances have brought new life to copper loops. With Ethernet over copper (also commonly referred to as EFM, for Ethernet in the First Mile) solutions, network operators can oer up to 15 Mbps per pair, bonding up to 8 pairs together.

services that tie multiple locations together seamlessly or monitor service levels with great precision.

This application primer and product guide will give you an overview of how to take advantage of the clear opportunity in EFM services — looking at:

• key drivers of demand in the relevant market segments,

• how EFM technology can support attractive new services targeted at these segments,

• the ease of EFM implementation in a scalable multi-service architecture,

• business cases for alternative operators, and ﬁnally

These services oer advantages beyond raw bandwidth, including very low capital costs, the simplicity and ease of use of Ethernet, higher reliability from fault-tolerant bonded pairs, and the facility for advanced network

• how Zhone’s extensive EFM solution portfolio can get you started quickly and scale with you eciently as your EFM business grows.

Customer Demand for Advanced Services

The customer segments for which EFM-based services are potentially valuable fall into two distinct groups. The ﬁrst and broader group consists of small and mediumsized organizations with inherently information- or communication-intensive activity. These organizations include commercial businesses as well as smaller publicsector entities such as municipalities and schools — all with reasonably similar networking requirements today. The needs of smaller remote locations of larger organizations are also very similar, with a few speciﬁc requirements for cross-organization connectivity that go beyond those of independent small businesses or organizations.

The second group is the cellular operator community, in particular the last-mile backhaul connectivity to their cell towers.

Changes in communication and information processing are increasing demand for bandwidth and more sophisticated services in both groups. For small/medium organizations (or SMOs), applications continue to involve ever richer content, with more and higher-resolution digital imagery, and increasing amounts of video content and videoconferencing. The software-as-service model is growing robustly in these segments because of its attractive economics especially for smaller-scale operations, increasing network trac along the way. For large organizations with distributed operations, the steady increase in data-driven processes and management approaches is turning remote sites into essentially small data centers. This is particularly prevalent in the retail segment. The mission-critical role of IT in these distributed operations complicates and increases the importance of high-uptime, seamless network connectivity.

For wireless operators, the advent of 3G smartphones with easy-to-use interfaces and compelling networkbased applications has substantially accelerated growth in cellular wireless data trac. This trac growth is quickly outpacing the ability of operators to put up new cell sites or tap new spectrum bands to accommodate it, so the capacity utilization of existing sites continues to rise. Since the capacity of a radio network is only as good as the bandwidth of its connection back to the core network, the rising utilization of 3G and 3.5G cell sites is creating similarly rising demand for backhaul connectivity.

Forecasts aggregated from across the telecommunications industry highlight clearly the magnitude of these changes in non-residential wireline and cellular data trac — with 32% and an astounding 125% compound annual growth rates, respectively. Given the relatively slow growth in the population of SMOs and cell sites, the trac per location looks set to continue rising substantially.

The Opportunity in Last-Mile Copper

While the telecom industry’s response to demand for higher bandwidth is generally to push ﬁber closer to the customer premise, for SMOs and many cell sites, there are complications with that approach. While the forecast trac growth rate in these segments is substantial, it’s starting from a very small base — typically something on the order of a 1.5 Mbps T1 or 2.0 Mbps E1 data service line. For these smaller sites, it will take years of steady trac growth to reach the point where service demand and willingness to pay will justify the high costs of running ﬁber to these premises. Unlike residential neighborhoods where the cost of ﬁber deployment can be more easily amortized over a number of subscribers, the lower teledensity of SMOs and cell sites means the ﬁber deployment business case for an individual location must bear the full installation costs largely alone. Given these realities, the slow rate of growth in ﬁber penetration to businesses is unsurprising. One industry analyst, Vertical

Two years later their 2008 survey found just 19.1% penetration of ﬁber connections in the business segment. The business case for ﬁber deployment to these segments is obviously improving, but at a modest rate that will leave the large majority of these customers limited to copper-based solutions for some time.

EFM Technology

Fortunately there is an excellent solution for these copperbound SMO and cell site applications in the form of Ethernet over Copper, and in particular the industrystandard Ethernet in the First Mile technology (commonly referred to as EFM).

EFM in Context

To clarify terminology, it’s helpful to look at EFM in the general context of the growing adoption of Ethernet. Since Ethernet is taking dierent forms in access, distribution, and core networks, the jargon can be confusing. The table on the next page provides a summary snapshot of the various Ethernet technologies in use today outside the LAN environment. The overlap between the application groupings (the horizontal axis) is the primary source of confusion. The IEEE 802.3ah standard, the more formal name for EFM, actually covers both ﬁber and copper technologies. In practice, though, the term “Active Ethernet” is used for 802.3ah standards over point-to-point ﬁber, leaving EFM as the working term for

802.3ah over copper. The higher-speed Metro Ethernet

6 Z HO N E T E CH N O LO G I ES E T H E RN E T O V ER CO P P ER

speciﬁcation, coming out of the work of the Metro Ethernet Forum, is used primarily for core and distribution network services over ﬁber and is not relevant to SMO and cell site target segments under consideration here. The last category, Pre-Standard Ethernet over Copper, refers to the proprietary technology for Ethernet on bonded copper loops that was originally developed by a small company named Net to Net in the late 1990s and acquired by Zhone in 2005. A number of Zhone customers continue to use this technology quite successfully.

One other term with some currency in the industry is “carrier Ethernet” — used variously as an umbrella term to refer to the services that operators can oer with any of these technologies, or sometimes more speciﬁcally to refer to Ethernet services in the core or distribution networks. Our focus for the balance of this discussion is on EFM over Copper, which in practice is usually shortened to just EFM.

How EFM Works

In simplest form, EFM is a straightforward combination of packet data in Ethernet frames carried over an SHDSL physical layer on one or more last-mile twisted pair copper loops. An EFM connection is made between an Ethernet access device (EAD) at the customer premise and typically an EFM aggregation platform in the central

oce, or in some cases directly with an EAD at another premise. EADs deliver WAN connectivity on the premise through an Ethernet port to a standalone device or a LAN switch, and they may also provide emulated legacy interfaces (POTS, T1/E1) as well.

The IEEE 802.3ah standard incorporates a number of advances in Ethernet over last-mile twisted pair, including:

• use of the SHDSL physical layer for high symmetric data rates per twisted pair (up to 15 Mbps)

• direct connection between the Ethernet MAC layer and the SHDSL PHY layer, avoiding latency and frame overhead associated with prior approaches that retained ATM encapsulation and adaptation in the process

• support for multiple twisted pairs in a bond group that are combined to form one virtual Ethernet connection with higher speeds and resiliency — as shown in the diagram on the facing page, individual inbound Ethernet frames are divided by EFM devices into fragments optimized for current loop performance before being sent in parallel over the bond group, one fragment to a pair, and then re-assembled on the receiving end.

rates, as well as hitless adds or drops of individual pairs from the group. This resiliency translates into higher value for EFM services in mission-critical business or public-sector applications where high link reliability and stability is of utmost importance.

The performance of the EFM standard represents a nearly 10x improvement over legacy T1/E1-based services. Rates for links without repeaters stay very robust over the typical “in town” distances required to serve SMOs. The addition of repeaters can carry multi-megabit speeds over copper at the greater distances required for cell site backhaul.

As the rate and reach achievable with EFM suggest, the most attractive application for the technology is simply the delivery of much higher bandwidth services for SMOs and cell sites at more aordable rates. As a rule of thumb, operators are able to oer proﬁtable EFM bandwidth today at about 1/6 the service charge per Mbps of T1/E1. The ﬂexible bond group design of EFM allows customers to easily migrate from one bandwidth level to the next by adding pairs one at a time.

Beyond just more bandwidth, the native Ethernet architecture of EFM also enables a number of other valueadded services, which create tiered pricing opportunities for operators. These include:

SLA E-LAN Services — SMOs that are part of larger

organizations often need guaranteed bandwidth for TLS services between their locations, to support missioncritical applications. Adding Service Level Management via IP SLA provides an added value service tier for these customers.

TDMoE Services — Some service providers merely use

Ethernet as a simpliﬁed means of delivering T1/E1 TDM services due to the attractive operating economics. TDMoE is transparent to the end subscriber, who still sees a T1/E1 rate connection. TDMoE with a carefullycontrolled clock reference for TDM timing-critical applications (such as cellular voice backhaul) is also known as pseudo-wire, or PWE.

E-Line Services — Also known as Ethernet Private Line

(EPL), are point-to-point services over Ethernet in the access network, generally Internet or VoIP connections. These can also include VPN services. This is also an alternative to traditional Frame Relay, as well as fractional or full T1/E1 service and even dial-up service.

E-LAN Services — Also known as Transparent LAN

Service (TLS), E-LAN involves using Ethernet accessnetwork connectivity to create a seamless Ethernet LAN extension from the subscriber/enterprise network to the WAN & across the WAN to other locations. It is considered a native Ethernet multi-point service using Layer 2 functionality. E-LAN services are an attractive alternative to Frame Relay and IP VPN services over T1/E1 infrastructure.

Easy, Fast Implementation

Beyond the higher bandwidth and advanced services EFM supports, the technology also oers service providers substantial time to market advantage and operating savings, from its simplicity and ﬂexibility in network design, installation, turn-up, and maintenance. Especially when embodied in a well-integrated and scalable multiservice access platform approach, as with Zhone’s EFM portfolio, the equipment is capable of supporting a wide range of conﬁgurations, from single point-to-point installations through very high density aggregation, all within the same interoperable hardware and software architecture.

The EFM standard’s provisions for conﬁguration and management allow well-designed system software to make turning up carrier-class services on the equipment very straightforward. Zhone’s EFM Application Guide takes you from a sealed box of central oce gear to bridged Ethernet service in just four simple steps — the ﬁrst of which is “unpack the box and plug it in.” With the touchless EFM provisioning built into Zhone’s single- line, multi-service (SLMS) access operating system, the end customer needs to perform only that ﬁrst step, and the rest can be completely automated. EFM services can be installed and brought up in a tiny fraction of the time it would take to deploy ﬁber for a business customer or cell site.

Zhone’s service provider customers have reported that EFM’s simplicity and ease of use reduce the ongoing sta costs of network conﬁguration and maintenance per subscriber by at least 20%, and in some cases as much as 50%. They also report that sta training time is dramatically reduced, as the technology taps directly the base of experience in Ethernet that is common in today’s network technicians.

The Business Case

A strong case for launching EFM services can be made for each alternative carriers, and custom network service operators. The cases for each dier in their particulars, but the net result is the same in all segments: deploying EFM is a very ﬁnancially attractive concept. We’ll look at each situation in turn.

Alternative Carrier or CLEC

For the alternative carrier / CLEC segment, EFM is all about the upside of taking new market share with a superior price/performance oer. In this case a representative customer cash-ﬂow payback analysis would look roughly like this:

Equipment, installation .................. 1,000

Total...........................................$1,200

The high proﬁtability of this customer segment yields very rapid payback for these alternative models where service providers are building custom networks for SMOs.

Custom Network Service Provider

The third model is a variation on the alternative carrier approach, and one pioneered by a Zhone customer in Europe. In this case the network operator sells the service concept to individual customers before buying and installing any equipment. The operation’s capacity is extended only when the customer is signed on, and completely at the customer’s expense. (The viability of this model in other geographies is likely to be very dependent on the severity of unmet demand for aordable higher-bandwidth options in the SMO segment.) The custom network provider operates a dedicated conﬁguration of equipment for each customer over leased unbundled local loops, becoming in eect an extension of their IT infrastructure. The proﬁtability of this customer segment carries through to the custom network model as well — operating income for this case is currently running in the mid 40% range.

Note that in establishing back-of-the-envelope business case views of these three operator classes, the value of more advanced services (such as E-LAN connectivity or tiered performance and pricing based on SLA levels) has not been incorporated. Whether included as part of the baseline service in order to provide more tangible dierentiation of the oer in an eort to gain share, or oered as incremental charges, the low cost of implementing these additional features in EFM solutions will yield even more upside to all three operator models.

Finally, the business case for cell site applications is largely analogous to each of the three cases sketched out above — whenever the cellular operator must buy backhaul from the open marketplace, i.e. it is not the wireless arm of an operator group that includes wireline services that can be purchased at cost. For wireless operators with wireline assets, the case for EFM can be based on more bandwidth over limited copper resources, comparatively lower maintenance and operating costs than for legacy interfaces, or avoiding the costs of more expensive alternatives such as microwave or ﬁber build-out.

SHDSL EFM Pseudowire Access Device

The EtherXtend access devices with Pseudowire

Emulation Edge to Edge (PWE3) allow customers

to extend TDM services over a packet based

network. These devices connect to TDM and

Ethernet services simultaneously. The ETHX-

31xx units allow a standard T1/E1 circuit to be

transported over the EFM bonded connection

eliminating the need to maintain a separate T1/E1

connection to customers who are using bonded

Ethernet for their data needs

Cornerstone of Service Expansion

“When we evaluated Zhone’s offerings, particularly EFM, we felt that the cost and performance claims made by Zhone had to be too good to be true. After testing the platform we were con-

vinced and we’ve been consistently amazed by the exibility, value and performance of the

MALC.”
