Alcatel-Lucent OM SN Product Famil y 5
Packet switching
The Alcatel-Lucent OMSN product s share common
integrated service adapter (ISA) blades that provide Layer 2
packet-switching functions, adapting the SDH transport
infrastructure to the increasing demand for packet-based
broadband services:
•OffersMPLS-enabledEthernetswitchingfunctions
and ATM-switching capabilities, with enterprise system
connection(ESCON),berconnection(FICON)and
FibreChannel(FC)interfacesforimproveddata-stream
connectivity and delivery of new IP-based broadband ser-
vicessuchastripleplay,Ethernetvirtualprivatenetworks

•Costeffectivelymanagesandtransportspacket-based
data applications within the existing optical infrastruc-
ture, avoiding adding specific overlay data networks for
metro broadband aggregation
•Createsnewrevenuesfromcurrentandfuture

These capabilities transform the Alcatel-Lucent OMSN
products into the cost-effective multitechnology nodes
ideally targeted for optical metro networks where capacity,
infrastructure costs, reliability and packet-based services
play key roles in a user-centric broadband architecture.
