Network Evolution

Evolved network architecture is necessary to keep up with new services and provide connectivity from any device, anywhere. We help operators deploy a combined fixed and mobile architecture that is standards-based and offers a cost-effective evolution to new broadband opportunities.
  • An evolved, open-standard architecture is essential to build a profitable and sustainable Full Service Broadband business, and encourages a common ecosystem.
  • An evolved network provides the consumer-electronics industry with the economies of scale required to be sustainable.
  • Evolved networks drive usage by offering users transparency and the convenience of services being available on any device, at any time, and anywhere.
  • Evolved networks also improve cost-efficiency by stimulating competition and simplifying interoperability and management.
Network Evolution of Broadband

In brief/In detail

Operators need an evolved- network architecture to provide users with service connectivity from any device, wherever they are. Full Service Broadband architecture is designed to meet these needs across residential and enterprise service offerings.

At the core of this evolved network architecture is a reliable, secure and cost-optimized transport network. Multi-access edge capabilities and IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) support the development and deployment of end-to-end services, such as multimedia telephony and interactive and personalized TV services.

Open interfaces, such as user-to-network interfaces (UNI) and network-to-network interfaces (NNI), ensure interoperability with partners as well as other operators and enterprises.

An evolved, open-standard architecture is essential when building a profitable and sustainable Full Service Broadband business. For users, convenience is a key success factor: services need to be seamlessly and intuitively accessible across all devices and networks.

The different access types in a Full Service Broadband network need to be managed for the best possible connectivity, with low cost of ownership for operators. Multi-access edge plays a key role here.

High-bandwidth broadband services are enabled by access technologies with increased capacity and reduced packet delays including VDSL2 and fiber-to-the-home technologies.

Standard network interfaces such as Ethernet, WiFi and HSPA are increasingly being integrated into devices. Open standards make service activation uniform, and service usage seamless and simple.
