Technology trends Present situation §
§
© ABB Group August 2013
SDH proved its capabilities for reliable communication infrastructure with highest availability figures §
Real time communication supported
§
Predictable communication channel
§
Symmetrical delay times
§
Low jitter/ wander
§
Etc.
Various applications changed to IP Protocol and Ethernet Interface e.g. §
SCADA IEC60870-5-104
§
Metering
§
Operation voice systems
§
IEC61850 standardized on Ethernet
§
Etc.
Technology trends Packet switched backbone networks §
§
© ABB Group August 2013
Presently the public telecom sector is strongly going for IP/MPLS solutions §
Driven by the change on traffic in their networks
§
Good and cost effective solution for low to medium performance demanding applications such as data or voice
§
Bandwidth optimization (overbooking) is key for increased revenues
Utility’s operational networks, require to transmit real time data §
Control and availability of utilities core business depends on communication network reliability and performance
§
Selected utility applications (e.g. differential protection) require high performance data channels §
Very low and deterministic delay times
§
Symmetrical delay times for send and receive directions
§
Highest availability figures of the communication channels
Technology trends Why not IP/MPLS for utilities? §
§
§
© ABB Group August 2013
IP/MPLS is a technology designed for public telecom applications §
Problems with applications requiring deterministic communication
§
Problems with symmetry requirements of utilities applications
§
Problems with predefined (fixed) channel routing
§
Lack of channel supervision and fast protection schemes
§
Very complex in terms of configuration & maintenance (based on experience of pilot installations and first projects)
Cost advantage for power utility presently seen in IP/MPLS solutions/ equipment's might not materialize due to: §
Significantly increased complexity and effort on configuration and maintenance side (high OPEX)
§
Requirement for highly specialized (expensive) staff for operation and maintenance of the communication network
IP/MPLS might not be the best technology for a utility
Technology trends ABB’s outlook with FOX615 §
© ABB Group August 2013
ABB is carefully investigating in possible solutions for future packet switched backbone networks considering: §
The application and availability requirements of utilities
§
The configuration effort required for such solutions
§
The supervision and management possibilities
§
The right point of time for PDH/ SDH - packet switched technology migration
§
ABB product family however already support sophisticated packet switched functionality
§
ABB continues introducing solutions designed for utility applications via packet switched networks §
FOX615 e.g. is fully prepared for future migration from SDH to packet switched networks
§
ABB sees MPLS-TP as the most promising technology for future utilities operational networks
Technology trends SDH & Ethernet are complementary §
© ABB Group August 2013
Understand SDH & Ethernet as complementary technologies §
SDH provides QoS for real-time applications
§
Ethernet access interfaces allow efficient integration of data applications
§
Next Generation SDH (GFP, VCAT, LCAS) enables standardized transport of Ethernet applications in SDH WAN networks
§
Enhanced Ethernet functionality should make the equipment future prove §
Strong Ethernet switching matrix shall be available
§
High performance access interfaces shall be available
§
Future migration Packet Switched Technologies with traffic engineering and QoS shall be possible
