Challenges

Rapid technological development has enhanced Internet-based video service to the point where it makes a satisfactory substitute for standard television. Video service portfolios are being enriched by addition of IP and OTT video to IPTV service. Internet video and IPTV services together will greatly change the network traffic mix.

Services are moving into the cloud while operating systems for individual devices seem likely to phase out, which would mean no PC service without an Internet connection; but, this is an untenable situation without ultra-broadband ubiquity. IPTV network architecture is lagging behind; multicast is no longer a core feature for backhaul, while separate architecture for multiple network elements and services can hardly bear IP video services. Moreover, network structures on the access, metro, and backbone layers should also be changed to deliver enhanced bandwidth for various access scenarios.

Huawei’s Solution

Ubiquitous ultra-broadband network architecture (U2Net) is a solution for IP video and cloud services. It helps operators build an end-to-end network architecture that delivers 20 to 100Mbps access, which can meet the backhaul and access needs of video and cloud services.

U2Net enhances broadband access through copper and fiber synergy. With vectoring technology, copper can achieve 100Mbps access, while fiber access can also accelerate through the smooth evolution of 10G PON.

Operators can build a broader network through IP and optical integration. PID and optical transport network (OTN) technologies have greatly simplified fiber equipment introduction to the metro network. Compared with 10G backbone networking, 100G-based IP and OTN integration can enhance the network capacity by a factor of 10.

Operators can simply and efficiently manage their broadband networks through probes and controls. Hardware probes, such as eOTDR and eID, can intelligently manage fiber networks, while software probes can monitor service quality in real time and help to locate faults. Moreover, policy and charging rules function (PCRF) can both manage bandwidth and enhance the service experience.
