Nokia delivers 'anyhaul' end-to-end mobile transport portfolio for the 5G era
#MWC17
* Nokia brings together mobile transport technology across microwave, IP,
optical, mobile and fixed access to offer industry's most comprehensive
'anyhaul' mobile transport portfolio
* End-to-end solution is specifically designed and optimized to address the
critical requirements of the 5G era
* Employs carrier SDN across portfolio for programmability and service
assurance
23 February 2017
Espoo, Finland - Nokia has expanded its industry-leading mobile transport
portfolio with new products and innovations specifically designed to address the
critical requirements of the 5G era. This expansion aims to satisfy the
increasingly complex and diverse challenges of today's evolving mobile
infrastructure with the industry's most comprehensive range of 'anyhaul' mobile
transport options. The programmable, end-to-end networking solutions build upon
Nokia's deep pedigree in mobile, microwave, IP, optical, and fixed access
technologies.
Ultra-broadband, IoT and the Cloud are driving a growing portfolio of services,
use cases and business models. To satisfy the combined requirements for
increased coverage, capacity and reduced latency, radio access and core networks
are evolving, including redistributing mobile functions and using cloud-compute
technologies. This significantly impacts the underlying transport layer whose
role of aggregating and interconnecting traffic must also evolve and stay ahead
of changes to the mobile layer. As a result, 5G era transport networks must
massively scale, provide flawless connectivity with low latency, and employ
programmability to provision services as quickly and dynamically as the cloud-
based applications and mobile elements it connects.
Nokia has developed a broad portfolio of next generation 'anyhaul' transport
solutions with new additions in microwave, IP, optical, and fixed access
solutions, all being launched at MWC 2017. In addition, new innovations will be
demonstrated including the ability to use 5G wireless spectrum as a transport
mechanism for 5G services. All capabilities leverage Nokia's early investments
in SDN and virtualization to deliver the programmable IP interconnectivity
needed to assure the heightened service requirements, and with an evolutionary
path to support past, present and future mobile technologies on a common
infrastructure.
Nokia's entire portfolio has been enhanced for latency-sensitive Ethernet
'fronthaul'. These new capabilities in microwave, IP, packet optical and fixed
access products complement Nokia's existing optical WDM-based CPRI fronthaul
solution.
The Nokia portfolio has also been optimized for 10Gbps cell site connections, up
from the previous 1Gbps interface which has dominated 2G/3G and LTE backhaul
deployments for nearly a decade. With these capacities comes greater need for
high availability and each product offers enhanced capabilies, including timing,
synchronization and OAM, optimized to their specific technologies.
The 5G era will leverage cloud technologies, creating a more dynamic application
environment that will strain the more static transport networks built in the
past. To alleviate this, the enhanced Nokia transport solution is programmable,
allowing mobile operators to rapidly address changing market requirements and
deliver premium broadband and IoT services when and where needed, in the most
efficient way.
To share insight on future innovations, Nokia will demonstrate at MWC 2017 a 5G
wireless mmWave-based small cell deployment with self-backhauling capabilities.
Using an innovative cloud-based mesh topology manager, it creates an in-band
meshed network with self-organizing, self-healing and load-balancing
capabilities.
Nokia is also announcing the following mobile transport product innovations:
· The Nokia Wavence Microwave Portfolio introduces a new family of
ultra-broadband transceivers. The ultra-broadband transceiver twin, a 'dual
carrier in a box' radio, and the ultra-broadband transceiver 80, a compact E-
band radio, support carrier aggregation and carrier SDN to deliver multi-
gigabit, low latency and programmable microwave transport. Nokia Wavence is the
evolution and the new brand of the Nokia 9500 Microwave Packet Radio family.
· The Nokia 7250 Interconnect Router R6 (IXR-R6) is a new IP/MPLS router
with terabit-scale, low latency, improved port densities and support for next-
generation interfaces, such as Ethernet fronthaul, that expands and complements
Nokia's IP/MPLS mobile transport solutions including the 7705 SAR, 7210 SAS and
7750 SR product families.
· The Nokia 1830 family introduces new functionality to further enhance
its optical anyhaul mobile transport solutions. New Integrated Packet Transport
cards for the Nokia 1830 Photonic Service Switch address Ethernet anyhaul
applications by combining the scalability of 100G packet aggregation and
coherent DWDM with ultra-low latency and industry leading time synchronization.
Additionally, the Nokia 1830 Versatile WDM Module (VWM) adds optical protection
switching, assuring high availability of WDM fronthaul traffic.
· The Nokia 7360 ISAM FX access node and 7368 ISAM ONT optical network
termination devices extend the performance of Passive Optical Networks (PON) and
are designed to cost effectively introduce more bandwidth with 10Gbps for PON
and Point-to-Point technologies. Including network synchronization support, the
new capabilities enable operators to easily leverage existing fiber-to-the-home
deployments for 'anyhaul' applications.
Key facts:
· Nokia has developed a broad portfolio of transport solutions to
support the diverse requirements of ubiquitous ultra-broadband and its
evolution, including latency-sensitive transport and synchronization
· Nokia's flexible, end-to-end networking solutions build upon the
company's deep pedigree in microwave, IP, optical and fixed access technologies
· Nokia's scalable 'anyhaul' solutions are available in an extensive
range of capacities and housed in purpose-built platforms designed for
indoor/outdoor deployments, macro/small cell environments, and urban/rural
locations
· Nokia's programmable solutions build upon early aggressive investments
in SDN and virtualization to provide automated provisioning, resource
optimization and service assurance
· Nokia's comprehensive and multi-layer 5G Acceleration Services
leverage a use case-driven design approach to help operators turn 5G visions
into real business success
John Byrne, Service Director, Global Telecom Technology and Software,
GlobalData, said: "With the advent of 5G just around the corner, mobile
operators are looking forward to a new era of denser radio networks, new
spectrum, dramatically higher bandwidth and ultra-low latency. But for all its
promise, 5G will make transport networks infinitely more complex, requiring
extreme flexibility across the entire network spanning fronthaul, backhaul and
core. A programmable, end-to-end transport network that can accommodate a
variety of 5G use cases such as SmartGrid and the Internet of Things as well as
2G/3G and LTE will be a crucial part of any operator's solution."
Barry French, CMO for Nokia, said: "Mobile transport is often the unsung hero in
making the mobile experience a reality. With the proliferation of 4.5G Pro,
4.9G and 5G, the demand for wireless capacity is increasing. The diversity of
today's evolving mobile infrastructure requires an extensive range of transport
solutions which only a company like Nokia can provide. Nokia is in an enviable
position to pull together elements from wireless, microwave, IP, optical, and
fixed access, along with the local experts worldwide, to ensure our customers
have the most comprehensive transport network portfolio to take them into the
5G era."
All products and innovations will be in the Nokia booth at Mobile World Congress
in Barcelona, Spain, Feb 27-Mar 2, Hall 3 Stand 3A10.
