3. 3 Network Realities
Rapidly evolving application requirements make bandwidth needs, traffic patterns and service delivery requirements highly unpredictable
Operators require the ability to rapidly respond to a multitude of customer requirements for on demand Ethernet based services
Optimization of infrastructure across wireless/wireline networks for ubiquitous connectivity
