Architecting Mobile Backhaul for the Next Generation Internet

Robert Synnestvedt, Mobility Marketing Manager, Cisco
Learn about techniques that are proving to improve profitability of Mobile Backhaul networks by:

+ Reducing OPEX by as much as 70% via backhaul network efficiency gains
+ Scaling networks on-demand to meet 100 times the traffic
+ Simplifying network operations by unifying the network to backhaul any multi-vendor radio over any media
+ Reducing the complexity and cost of operating, deploying, and scaling backhaul of multivendor, multigenerational Radio Access Networks (RANs)
+ Optimizing architecture with specific network designs to meet unique customer needs in this session

Mobile Backhaul networks continue to strain under the load of exponential Mobile Internet traffic growth. To alleviate the resulting financial pressure of accompanying increases in operating expenses, as well as to scale the networks to meet the ever increasing mobile broadband demand, operators must optimize and cost effectively overhaul these networks. Upgrading the Radio Access Network (RAN) is arguably the most critical investment mobile operators are making in 2010-2012 as they migrate from 2G to 3G+ to improve OPEX, increase teledensity, and unlock additional "Mobile Internet" revenue opportunities.

  • Advances in next generation video processing and the impact it will have Recorded: Jan 22 2013 54 mins
    Today we see video traffic doubling each year and becoming the large majority of the traffic within a few years. Video traffic may well account for 70-90% of all traffic.

    Video providers today are all facing some challenges that will be even more impactful as video continues to grow. They can be categorized as follows:
    -The need to Reduce Cost
    -The drive to Increase Revenues
    -The requirement to improve the User Experience
    -These are all occurring in an environment with video growing dramatically but facing issues of monetization and profitability.

    Given the above as a backdrop what and how can you address these issues both from a technical as well as business perspective? How can new emerging video processing offering help address these issues? What if any impact will they have on the profitability and the user experience?

  • Secrets of Cisco Small Innovation Revealed: Next-Generation Hotspot and More... Recorded: May 1 2012 59 mins
    Have You Heard? Next Generation Hotspots are Here!

    The Mobile Internet will grow 18x over the next four years. And there is a three-fold problem service providers face aiming to profit from mobile Internet services:
    -Fragmented user experience as lines blur between consumer and business services on mobile devices
    -Capacity and coverage with limited spectrum and the rise of indoor usage
    -How to define the path to new revenue streams What can Wi-Fi offer to address these concerns?

    Find out through this webcast an innovative approach to address these questions.
  • The Cloud Value Chain Exposed – Takeaways for Network Service Providers Recorded: Mar 15 2012 60 mins
    As cloud computing matures and hype becomes reality, on-demand services are changing the ICT landscape in all its facets. From application and presentation layers down to infrastructure and facility layers, cloud disrupts the status quo.

  • Everything You Wanted to Know About Policy in Mobile Networks Recorded: Jun 9 2011 54 mins
    By 2015, there will be over 5 billion wireless consumer devices and 400 million mobile-only Internet users with global mobile data traffic growing to over 3.6 exabytes per month. Service providers are under pressure to reduce data delivery costs and simplify network operations, while increasing revenue opportunities. Network evolutions, advanced mobile devices, and unlimited data plans are increasing the costs of managing this tidal wave of mobile data traffic. Cisco expects the signaling and control plane impact to be even larger than the bearer plane therefore significantly affecting policy – which becomes instrumental in making money and therefore becomes mission critical.
