Mobile Transport

Customer situation
The introduction of LTE, strong HSPA subscriber growth and increased use of mobile multimedia services are driving the Mobile Broadband’s success. Many operators see exponential traffic increases as a result of their competitive offerings and innovative business models. To meet subscriber expectations it is important to truly understand how to build an IP infrastructure network to meet rapidly evolving mobile technology and sophisticated subscriber requirements.

At the same time an operator must maintain IP network flexibility to facilitate continued capacity, coverage expansion and attractive new services. Any solution must remain a secure investment, and to do that it needs to offer the best in terms of efficient and reliable network design, use highly integrated purpose-built platforms, and provide an adaptable infrastructure for exploiting new business opportunities.

Ericsson’s offering

Ericsson is one of the few companies worldwide that can offer complete end-to-end solutions and services for all major mobile communication standards. So it’s natural that Ericsson should provide comprehensive and advanced IP transport networks for all mobile traffic types, and support all connectivity - from the base station to the Internet, and everything in between. Ericsson’s ‘Mobile Transport’ solution set consists of four clearly defined and completely aligned solutions targeting each part of the end-to-end mobile network infrastructure.

Mobile Transport solutions are continuously updated with the latest products, features and applicable standards. Solution alignment is key in providing the best possible user experiences, as is compatibility with Ericsson’s nodes and systems in domains such as RAN, packet core and IMS. Professional services are the key to quickly establish, reliably maintain and efficiently expand the network, to meet business needs. The Mobile Transport solution set comprises the following IP transport solutions for the RAN, backhaul and packet core respectively:

  • ‘IP RAN’
  • ‘MBH - Mobile Backhaul’ & ‘Satellite Backhaul’
  • ‘MPBN - Multiservice Packet Backbone Network’

Each solution shares a common design and delivery approach that maximizes the use of common components, technologies and professional services. They draw upon Ericsson’s deep experience of global end-user service expectations, mobile applications, and every element comprising the mobile network infrastructure. Ericsson Mobile Transport solutions are deployed and proven in more than 300 operator networks and uniquely positioned to fulfill mobile operators’ end-to-end needs, including:

  • Network architecture, site solutions & detailed network design
  • Transport network dimensioning and QoS implementation
  • IP/MPLS-based multiservice packet core
  • Performance monitoring (active & passive) and KPI correlation between RAN and Transport
  • Synchronization
  • Transport for the Small Cell evolution including WiFi access
  • Security

 

Main benefits:

With aligned, fully integrated, tested and verified reference solutions, the Mobile Transport solutions offer these clear advantages:
  1. Faster Time to Market for new services: Pre-tested/integrated/verified solutions together with Ericsson’s professional services will save time to project completion, and speed up new revenue generation.
  2. Risk reduction: With a proven, established reference design and Ericsson’s world-class professional services, the operator will benefit from worry-free network deployment and operation.
  3. TCO reduction: Optimal network design, dimensioning and efficient platforms ensure a lower TCO.
  4. User experience optimization: Mobile Transport delivers a holistic approach to end-to-end QoS, reliability, security, performance and network management. This will produce the best possible user experiences and churn reduction.
  5. Future proofed: Mobile Transport is designed to grow and evolve with future network and services requirements. It can adapt with business requirements and support the needs of even the very largest of operators.

Mobile Transport solutions simplify deployment, network management, support and maintenance.

The governing factors when tailoring the best end-to-end solution for each operator are: business strategy, legacy infrastructure and future capacity requirements. Talk to Ericsson and see how we can transform your current network to deliver exceptional services to your customers.
