Built to Deliver

The Alcatel-Lucent 7705 SAR delivers IP/MPLS and pseudowire capabilities in a high-density, future-proof architecture that will enable you to address evolving aggregation requirements. It is architected to provide superior service delivery through effective provisioning, traffic management, troubleshooting and billing features.

The 7705 SAR platform delivers strong convergence capabilities in the mobile RAN. With native service processing of 2G, 3G and 4G traffic, it has the ability to groom multiple media and transport protocols onto

a normalized, economical packet transport infrastructure. Industry-leading scalability and density is provided in a compact unit offering a flexible mixture of multiport T1/E1, 10/100 Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, along with ATM/IMA, TDM and Ethernet pseudowires over MPLS for legacy service support.

On the network side, media connectivity options are: Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet and n x T1/E1 (MLPPP). The platform can be optionally configured with a redundant core module and uplinks.

The 7705 SAR is ideally suited to these applications:

Radio access network aggregation and backhaul

¬Convergence at the cell site or hub (point of concentration)

T1/E1 private line services

¬Modernized, normalized transport of legacy services

¬Fixed-mobile convergence over a packet backbone

The 7705 SAR extends the intellectual property and field-hardened service capabilities of the 7750/7710 Service Router platform.
