IP transformation in BSS : Key take-aways Strong IP transformation plan in Alcatel-Lucent BSS • Progressive introduction of IP, from B9 to B10 , B11 and further
• Complementarity and compatibility of all features
IP in BSS as major contributor to operator TCO reduction • Key added value of IP features is Transmission OPEX reduction
• Native IP is the cost effective solution to address Full IP transformation • A-Flex / A sig o IP / Gb-Flex allow to follow Core Network transformations • A (UP) over IP is a key step enabling evolution to a flat architecture
IP transformation in GSM network (BSS+NSS) as a mandatory step • IP BSS is a first mandatory step towards GERAN evolutions • IP allows for multi-standard convergence • IP allows to go towards flat architectures (LTE…)
IP transformation in Alcatel-Lucent BSS IS NOW A REALITY IP transport is a High added value feature for GSM networks 77 | BSS portfolio | March 2008
