Selling Mid-Band Ethernet Services

The "Selling Mid-Band Ethernet Services" handbook is a guide for Service Providers on how to sell and position Mid-Band Services. This handbook highlights different opportunities available with the implementation of Mid-Band Ethernet services across industries as diverse as finance and health care or retail and legal services.

 

Mid-Band Ethernet Service Handbook

The “Mid-Band Ethernet Services Handbook” is designed to help Carriers and Service Providers with service definition to significantly grow their top-line revenue through the deployment of Mid-Band Ethernet Services, hitting the service sweet spot between 2 and 20Mbps. Mid-Band Ethernet is an emerging market that will double the addressable Metro Ethernet port forecast over the next 5 years.

 

Mid-Band Ethernet Technology Handbook

“The Mid-Band Ethernet Technology Handbook: IEEE 802.ah EFM 2BASE-TL for Executives,” is a must read for telecom decision makers that need to understand not only the technology, but the market potential for Ethernet over copper solutions, and why so many carriers are already deploying the Hatteras solution and improving their bottom-line.

 

Mid-Band Ethernet Spectral Compatibility

The “Mid-Band Ethernet Spectral Compatibility Handbook” is designed to help Carriers and Service Providers better understand the spectral compatibility of symmetric services. There are a number of options for delivering symmetric services – T1s, HDSL, SHDSL, enhanced-SHDSL, and VDSL2 to name a few. In this handbook we mostly focus on the two newest technologies for symmetric services – enhanced SHDSL and VDSL2 – to see how they compare in realistic deployment environments.

 

Mid-Band Ethernet: The Business Case by Bob Emmerson

The market for Mid-Band Ethernet has ramped up in Europe as service providers look to take advantage of last mile copper to deliver business services and for more effective mechanisms to backhaul wireless traffic. This white paper addresses specific opportunities where service providers can leverage Mid-Band Ethernet to win customers, ramp revenue and create a competitive differentiation in the marketplace. Case studies are also discussed of how two innovative carriers are leveraging Mid-Band Ethernet today.

 

Whither T1? Mid-Band Ethernet Delivers 2-Mbps to 45-Mbps over Bonded Copper

Mid-Band Ethernet is proving to be the new T1: a high margin, ubiquitous and essential carrier service for business markets. “Whither T1” explains the technology and underlying drivers that are propelling Mid-Band Ethernet into the forefront of carrier planning as they seek to better leverage copper assets. Whereas T1 has – until recently – been the carrier business service of choice, Mid-Band Ethernet is poised to supplant it by extending the Metro Ethernet beyond fiber and thereby offering a service that’s better suited to 21st-century applications.

 

Extending Metro Ethernet with Copper Access

This white paper explores the basic requirements for using the copper local loop to deliver metro-Ethernet services. Ethernet is fundamentally different from SONET or ATM, and offers the potential for significant capital and operational savings versus these legacy technologies. The paper’s contents will help operators leverage the simplicity, flexibility and interoperability of Ethernet to capitalize fully on both its revenue-generating and cost-savings potential.

 

Copper Rides Again

Gary Bolton, VP of Marketing and PLM, takes an insightful look into the future of Mid-Band Ethernet.

 

An Advanced VLAN Framework for Network Scaling

This white paper describes the fundamental role the Virtual LAN (VLAN) plays in delivering Metro Ethernet Copper Access services. VLANs allow carriers to provision multiple services on a single link, segregate customer traffic securely, and cost-effectively manage large-scale deployments. To capitalize fully on Ethernet’s potential, the solution must be able to insert, translate, stack and otherwise manipulate tags within the metro-Ethernet switching infrastructure.

 

Advanced Quality of Service for Carrier-class Networks

This white paper outlines how a Metro Ethernet Copper Access solution can be configured to support multiple services with guaranteed service levels on a per-service, per-customer and aggregate basis. The examples given are designed to demonstrate how basing services on the performance and bandwidth requirements of high-value business subscribers becomes fundamental to a carrier’s ability to compete profitably for enterprise customers in the first-mile.
