  22. E. Transport technologies in network backbones - MPLS BACKBONE OPTIONS IP ATM OB MPLS

  23. LER B LER A LSR LSR MPLS Model • Routers that handle MPLS and IP are called Label Switch Routers (LSRs) • LSRs at the edge of MPLS networks are called Label Edge Routers (LERs) • Ingress LERs classify unlabelled IP packets and appends the appropriate label. • Egress LERs remove the label and forwarding the unlabelled IP packet towards its destination. • All packets that follow the same path (LSP- Label Switched Part) through the MPLS network and receive the same treatment at each node are known as a Forwarding Equivalence Class (FEC). LSP FEC

  24. E. Switching Technologies - Summary • Driving forces (mid of 80th) - Common platform for different types of traffic • ISDN is not suitable (N-ISDN - low bit rates, circuit switching) • ATM will not become as the most important switching technology since 2000s • Main competitors (Performance/Price) # Ethernet (LANs) # xDSL (Access) # IP/MPLS (Backbones)

Evolution of transmission technologies Satellite radio Radio Radio Transmission media Coax Coax Copper cable 1935 Copper cable Fiber Optics all optical SDH WDM PDH Frequency modulation systems Modulation methods Wavelength multiplexing Time multiplexing, TDM Frequency modulation, FDM 1900 1970 1980 1990 2000 Years

  31. Technological limitations of different transmission media Fiber 250 Cellular Wireless* Coax Copper Twisted Pair *Capacity in Mbit/s/sq_km, Bandwidth 500 MHz Optical fibers are the only alternative at high bandwidth and distances

  32. Optical systems move from backbone to access Access Metro Backbone Optical Copper yesterday Fiber optics and laser ISDN POTS 5 Years Optical Copper today additional: color filter and optical amplifier ADSL 10-15 Years Optical tomorrow additional: optical switch, color converter Entry process of optical systems into access occurs very slowly ... Prognosis 10-15 years, reason: exchange of copper cables and maturity of technologies

  33. Today optical transmission system consists mainly of electronics and passive optical components Signal Multiplexer Amplifier Cross connector • SDH and WDM process signals most of the time only electronically • Amplifiers are the only active optical elements in the network SDH networks: TDM MUX, Cross- connect, control Optical fiber TDM MUX Passive optics Electrical signal Opto- electronics Active optics Electronics WDM networks: Optical signal Electronics TDM MUX Control Optical fiber Electrical signal WDM MUX WDM MUX, Cross- connect Passive optics Passive optics:- lenses - grating - mirrors Passive optics:- lenses - prisms - grating Active optics

  34. Day after tomorrow:All-optical switching and multiplexing • All-optical systems process signals only optically • Electronics disappear • Nortel (03/2002): large scale stand-alone optical switches are likely for longer term market requirements Signal Multiplexer Amplifier Switch Optical signal Control Optical fiber WDM MUX Switch Matrix Passive optics Active optics:- Switch - color converter - amplifier Passive optics:- lenses - prisms - grating Aktive Optik

  35. Future photonic switches • Optics are good for transport • Electronics are good for switching • Electronics as far as possible Evolution instead of Revolution  at least, 5 years for first all-optical systems in backbone and metro area

  36. G. Concluding remarks - growth of network capacity and “Death of distance” phenomenon • Growth of network capacity reduction of information transmission costs • New generation of transmission systems – new ratio Cost of transmission/Bandwidth • PCM SDH/SONET DWDM • Bandwidth becoming a less dominating factor in cost of connection • Cost of one-bit-transmission has an obvious tendency to become very close to zero in long distance communications systems • “Flattened” networks • “Death of distance” phenomenon (F. Cairncross, 1997) • Challenges for operators

  37. Bandwidth using • 32 terrestrial carriers connecting to the New York metropolitan area have a combined potential capacity of 818.2 Terabits per second. Of that, only 22.6 Terabits per second -- 2.8 percent -- of network bandwidth is actually in use • Int'l IP       Using  City     Bandwidth,   Bandwidth,      Gbit/s Gbit/s London     550.3 9,5   Paris             399.4        9,3       Frankfurt     320.2        10,3   Amsterdam  267.1 8,2

Reference structure of access network NT - Network Termination CPE - Customer Premises Equipment AN – Access Node TP – Twisted pair FOC – Fiber optic PL – Power line CPE Access Network TP/Coax/Radio/FO/PL Core Network AN NT CPE • High cost of access networks - • 50-70% of the total cost of local telephone networks • Modems/ISDN, LL (E1) based on four-wire connection

  40. B. Access networks go to broadband Local networks based on outdated principles are became a “bottleneck”, limiting subscriber’s access to modern services. Key forces: • New subscriber’s requirements to providing new services • New regulations • Development of new services in voice, data and video information in interactive and broadcasting mode # WWW pages with powerful video information # Multimedia applications Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB), Video-on-Demand (VoD), interactive TV • Emergence of alternative operators in local networks, who compete with incumbent operators in provisioning a wide set of additional services • Construction of high-speed core networks with a capacity of dozens and hundreds of Gbit/s • Wireless Technologies

  41. Technology Trends • Data communications exceed telephony • Wireless/mobile subscribers exceed landline subscribers • Broadband on Wireless • Emergence of the Next Generation Networks

  42. Business growing the broadband access Grow the market in three waves: • High-speed Internet access (HSIA) • Business access (start with underserved SOHO segment) • Residential multimedia (gaming/video/entertainment) MV Address new audiences (PC, TV, console) Residential Multimedia Build on existing infrastructure Business Access Move aggressively into HSIA High-speed Internet access TIME Today
