1. INTRODUCTION

Fiber To The User (FTTU) is quickly becoming the only logical choice for new access
network build outs and for the revamping of existing networks. This radical transformation
in access network design is made possible by passive optical network (PON) technology.
Therefore, most of the FTTU deployments today around the world use the PON technology
as it uses low-cost, easy to install and maintain, passive optical splitters to perform the
fiber distribution.

This document describes the Alcatel-Lucent GPON NayaTel proposal.


The capabilities of the 7342 FTTU GPON system are also outlined in the sections below.

Alcatel-Lucent – your business partner

Alcatel-Lucent is pleased to present to NayaTel an offer for the supply a Gigabit passive
optical network (GPON) for a fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) solution using the award winning
Alcatel-Lucent ISAM portfolio, and to share with NayaTel our innovation and expertise
with a goal to create together the best fitted, future proof access solution.

Capitalizing on Alcatel-Lucent’s industry leadership in wire-line digital subscriber line (DSL)


and next generation digital loop carrier (NGDLC), the Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU
expands Alcatel-Lucent’s access portfolio with an all-optical PON access solution. The 7342
ISAM FTTU allows established and emerging service providers to supply revenue generating
services to their residential and business customers, including high quality voice, multi-
channel video services and high speed Internet access at speeds way beyond the classical
HSI delivery of today. Small business customers can be served by the same system,
minimizing the varieties of equipment an operator must deploy. The 7342 ISAM FTTU is a
highly flexible solution that extends optical access across the last mile of the
communications network, supporting broadband services today and into the future.

We would be very pleased to work closely with NayaTel and offer our unique business and
technical experience. As NayaTel intends to invest in a new and highly scalable access
infrastructure, Alcatel-Lucent provides the building blocks you need to accomplish this
goal to the maximum extend.

Corresponding to the deployment of GPON some interoperability tests need to be


conducted between the currently installed 5020 MGC-10 Rel R27.2.3 and the proposed
7342 GPON. This offer includes these testing services along with some on-site integration
services in order to allow smooth deployment of GPON.

2. GENERAL FUNCTIONALITY

The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU platform provides unmatched, scalable


bandwidth using GPON technology for video, voice, and high-speed data services.
Services are delivered using a single fibre with receive and transmit wavelengths
multiplexed together — along with an optional wavelength for downstream RF
video. Figure below shows the elements of a complete Alcatel 7342 ISAM FTTU
end to- end solution.

The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU system includes a packet optical line terminal
(P-OLT), located in the CO, that terminates PON interfaces connected to many
outlying ONTs.

The Alcatel-Lucent FTTU solution includes different types of ONTs as mentioned


below:

• Indoor ONT (ONT I-Series) for homes,


• Outdoor ONT (ONT O-Series) for homes,
• Business ONT (ONT B-Series)
• Brick MDU ONT (ONT M-Series) for multi-dwelling unit application

The Alcatel 7342 ISAM FTTU solution supports long reach from the CO to the user,
up to 20 kilometres. Each fibre terminated at the OLT in the CO can be split using
optical splitters, which enables the Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ISAM FTTU to serve up to
64 ONTs located at outlying subscriber sites.

The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 FTTU performs service differentiation and traffic flow
prioritization in the ONT and P-OLT.A full bundle of services — voice, data, and
video — can be provided over a single fiber cable to any residential customers
whether they are living in single family units (SFUs) or MDU/MTUs, for indoor or
outdoor deployment.

The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ONT O-Series is designed to deliver triple play services
to single-family homeowners that need a Telco demarcation point outside the
home. The ONT O-Series is a temperature-hardened unit ready for outdoor
deployment with battery backup for lifeline services.

The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 ONT I-Series is designed to deliver triple play services to
residential, single family home customers. I-Series ONTs can either be mounted

battery backup for lifeline services.

The Alcatel 7342 ONT M-Series is designed to provide services to residential


subscribers in MDUs such as apartment buildings or multi-tenant units such as
business buildings. The MDU ONT terminates the PON interface and has 24 POTS
and 12 Port Ethernet.

The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 FTTU ISAM solution uses a one single mode fiber
technology to connect the OLT equipment in the central office (CO) to the ONT’s
located at the subscriber location. Each fiber coming from the central office site
can be split up to multiple houses by means of optical splitters.
Each fiber from the CO can be shared by up to 64 subscribers using optical
splitters.
A detailed network design (distance, splices, losses, etc) is needed to
determinate which splitting ratio’s are appropriate for each case.

The Alcatel-Lucent 7342 FTTU ISAM solution supports 2,4G/1,2G asymmetrical


PON operation, as defined by the ITU-T G984.X GPON standard and this on each
fiber coming from the central office site.

Fibre type support

The reference fiber for the Alcatel-Lucent 7342 GPON platform is ITU-T G.652.

Single fibre - Fibre Pair support

The Alcatel 7342 supports one fiber in both transmission directions.

3.4 ALCATEL 7342 FTTU GSBU-SMALL BUSINESS UNIT
(NOT PART OF OFFER)

The Alcatel 7342 B-series ONTs are designed for small-to medium-sized businesses that
require connection to legacy TDM, Gigabit Ethernet and video (optional) services. Service
providers can make applications such as telecommuting, videoconferencing and online
collaboration a reality. The B-Series ONTs can be mounted indoors or outdoors because
they are hardened and can tolerate extreme temperatures, lightning, and other weather
related effects. The B-Series ONTs are ideal for communities with a mix of business and
residential customers because they operate on the same GPON termination as other
Alcatel ONTs, providing service providers the flexibility to deploy residential and business
services on the same GPON line. Each B-Series ONT includes eight POTS interfaces, one
Gigabit Ethernet interface, two E1 interfaces, and an optional RF video interface. The
Alcatel B-Series ONTs can be locally powered and equipped with battery backup for lifeline
services.

3.5 ALCATEL-LUCENT 7342 P-OLT

The 7342 P-OLT is the core of the GPON system. It provides capability to terminate
multiple passive optical network terminations to ONTs and connect those for user and
control plane traffic to the operator’s network using Ethernet technology. The P-OLT
consists of two key functional blocks: network termination (NT) and line termination (LT),
which actually act as a two-stage switch. The functional blocks are built on the intelligent
services access manager (ISAM) platform with tiers of software applications, including
communication and management protocols, core service and management applications,
and transport applications.

The OLT has 14 interface slots for GPON line termination cards and two slots for
network termination cards. Towards the Ethernet network, the shelf houses up to
two slots for NT card positions:

• EHNT-B – up to four 1-GE and one 10-GE interfaces (48G switching matrix)

The GLT4-A line termination cards support 4 ports each, thus providing up to 56
PON interfaces in total. The GPON line card contains a media access controller
(MAC) that provides the interfaces towards the PON and introduces and supports
Ethernet adaptation for VLAN functions and the processing of voice, data, and
IPTV video services. Interconnection between NT and LT is over point-to-point
links transporting Ethernet frames. This point-to-point interface is embedded in
the backplane of the shelf

Besides the NT and the LTs, the following building blocks can be found:

• ACU – Alarm Control Unit provides collection & distribution of ISAM &
customer alarms (mandatory board)
• SMAC – System Mac@ Card – contains the MAC@ of the 7342 ISAM FTTU

4. ALCATEL-LUCENT 5520 AMS

4.1 OVERVIEW

The 5520 AMS is the Element Manager of the Alcatel-Lucent broadband access
product suite. The 5520 AMS brings powerful and simple to use tools to reduce the
time for fault resolution and service creation, in a secured environment. This carrier
class application is based on high quality architecture and offers a modular and
scalable architecture.

The 5520 AMS is an enhanced platform based on the latest software technology and
IT infrastructure. The 5520 AMS is the cornerstone for the new service aware
management applications and will evolve the EMS platform to an application
platform. The 5529 family of enhanced AMS applications are an optional set of
integrated applications that are focused on subscriber management, service
management, alarm management, inventory and software management functions
with appropriate interface capabilities.

4.2 A NEW ENVIRONMENT FOR THE 5520 AMS

Current broadband access networks are being transformed: broadband access


networks move away from ATM and hybrid networks towards full Ethernet and IP.

The new technology allows broadband access networks to support multiple services
and topologies. Triple play services (high-speed internet, VoIP, IPTV) are offered
using the same multi-service Access Multiplexer while the broadband access topology
allows a mixture of copper and fibre. Deep fibre penetration in the broadband access
network has become a default architecture and is supported with 7330 FTTN and
7342 FTTU

4.3 THE IMPACT ON THE 5520 AMS

Customer networks are being transformed: Triple-play services are required and
broadband access networks are being used to deliver critical services. This results in
more complex service activation scenarios and stresses the service assurance
activities from alarm monitoring to pro-active service management and qualified QOS
monitoring.

New IP forwarding models have been introduced to cope with different services. This
has resulted in a complex set of provisioning parameters. The OSS systems do not
have the flexibility to rapidly adapt to the fast introduction of new services.
Therefore the required OSS-interfaces must be stable and backward compatible with
defined services.

The multi-service environment and the mixture of residential and business
subscribers also need highly available systems to meet strict minimum reliability and
downtime requirements

4.4 THE 5520 AMS ARCHITECTURE

The 5520 AMS architecture is designed to manage the new broadband access
environment. The technology allows building carrier-class solutions to manage, in a
reliable way, the new broadband access networks supporting multiple services and
topologies.

The 5520 AMS provides a fully modular and hot pluggable system that accelerates
field deployment through reduced customer lab entry / exit times.

The 5520 AMS is the converged platform for the complete suite of Alcatel-Lucent
broadband access products, including 7300 ASAM, 7301 ASAM, 7302 ISAM, 7324 RU,
7330 ISAM FTTN, 7342 ISAM FTTU, 7354 ISAM RU and 7356 REM.

The new AMS software architecture allows local redundancy and geographical
redundancy for high-availability and has the potential for creating clusters of
machines that load balance between them.

The 5520 AMS architecture allows a broader range of supported hardware and the use
of secure protocols (SNMPv3, SSH, SFTP, …) to communicate with the network
elements that support these protocols.

 The 5520 AMS client software distribution

The 5520 AMS client is a separate software entity that runs either on a Windows-based PC
or Solaris-based workstation.

The 5520 AMS client software is distributed from the 5520 AMS application server. The AMS
client requires having an IP-link with the AMS application server and a Java runtime version
1.5.0 or later.

As depicted in Figure 2, the 5520 AMS client navigates to the client distribution window on
the server, which includes instructions for downloading the 5523 AWS client for Windows
and Solaris.

4.5 THE 5520 AMS FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW

Graphical User Interface

The graphical user interface (GUI) of the 5520 AMS is a Zero-install client (Windows &
Solaris). The GUI has the ability to be localized per region, and displays the racks,
shelves, boards and ports in a realistic view. The operator has the option to navigate
in the element tree or use the graphical representation of the equipment to navigate
to the involved object. The GUI also displays alarm information through standard
colour and text indicators that are used throughout to aid the operator in getting a
quick and accurate overview of the system. An example is given below:

consistent user
interface. In other words, the handling of windows, menus etc. on the screen is done
exactly the same way no matter what particular application the user is running.
Furthermore the object names are unique and consistently used in the different
applications i.e. a network element is always referenced with the same name in all
applications. Similar functions are named and represented consistently i.e.
pushbuttons for termination of the applications have one specific representation.

All GUI related parts are developed within one and the same framework. The result is
a uniform user interface for all application modules. The user interface is windows
based and a universal set of attributes is reused over all applications.

Color-coding of graphical symbols is used for indicating the status of the represented
objects.

The 5520 AMS uses the concept of “perspectives”. A perspective is a collection of


windows related to a specific function of the system like fault management,
configuration or scheduling. This allows the operator to quickly switch between tasks
without having to open and close all the involved of windows.

Online help is provided through the use of tooltips and attached URLs, these URLs
can point to any help file or other information that can be useful to the operator.
Besides these help functions, the operator can add comments to almost any object.
An operator can for example add a comment to a port that he is troubleshooting as
info for an operator that comes after him.

Network/Equipment views

All rights reserved. Passing on and copying of this document, use and communication of its contents not

without written authorisation.
The network view of the 5520 AMS consists of a tree view, which displays all Network
Elements as defined. Network elements can be grouped together along geographical
domains or otherwise to facilitate the management of very big networks. The
Network View also depicts with a colour indication the current status of the nodes.
The tree can be expanded in order to allow the operator to zoom in to the detailed
configuration of the network element.

The graphical view is a realistic representation of the groups and the network
element as selected in the network view. It allows the operator to drill down in the
network element (rack/shelf/board/port). All configuration options relevant to the
zoom level are displayed in the object details window.

Alarm management

Alarm management is modelled after the 5523 AWS R7 and consists of alarm
collections from the nodes. A presentation window in the 5520 AMS GUI enables the
operators to view, to acknowledge and to delete alarms. Alarms are colour coded
according to severity. There is easy navigation between the alarm and the object
that reported the alarm and by double clicking the alarm entry the operator gets all
details of the alarm including the proposed repair actions. Both a current and a
historical alarm list are available and cleared alarms are moved manually or through
a predefined schedule from the current list to the historical list. The number of days
that alarms remain in the historical list before they are deleted can be configured.

Profiles & Templates

 Profiles

Profiles exist in the Network Elements. A Profile is a group of related attribute


values. Profiles make the node provisioning much easier. The network operator sets a
pointer to the applicable profile(s) instead of configuring each parameter
individually.

During the NE pre-provisioning phase, the profiles are made available in the network
element. This can be done through craft-access or with 5520 AMS. The 5520 AMS can
configure all profiles in the network elements.

 Templates

Templates exist in the 5520 AMS. A Template is a data model of a profile. The 5520
AMS can model every node profile into a template. Via the use of templates, the
5520 AMS is able to manage the use of profiles in the Access network.

The 5520 AMS is able to manage all profiles as defined in the network elements
through the use of templates. Profile templates can be created based on the type of
network element and its software release. Profile templates can be given a friendly
name and can be uploaded to one or several network elements. Templates can also
be discovered from an already configured network element. This gives an easy
method to copy profiles from one network element to several other network
elements.

 Profile Management

It’s very likely that operators will deploy multiple services concurrently in the
network. For each service, the operator will use a set of profiles. The combination of
multiple services normally leads to an operational environment where many profiles
are in use. This can result in a complex and error sensitive situation.

Via the use of Templates and Template Groups, the 5520 AMS has the capability to
manage the use of profiles in a structured way. Service profiles can be grouped
together and a network wide profile deployment is possible.

The 5520 AMS allows to group templates and to download the group, in a single
command, to one or more network elements. For each deployed service or
combination of services, a Template Group can be defined. Template groups can be
deployed in the same way as profile templates, thus avoiding manual interventions
and human errors.

Real Time Performance Management

With the 5520 AMS the operator has the ability to trace in real time one or more
performance measurement counters available in the network element. The selected
counters are displayed in tabular form or in a graph plot allowing the operator to
assess the activity and come more quickly to the root cause of a certain problem.

Network Element Backup, Restore and Download

The backup/restore application allows the operator to initiate a backup or a restore


of the network element database. For the backup part he has the ability to schedule
this action so it can be performed during night time. The backup can be triggered on
an individual network element or on multiple network elements.

Network Element Software Management

The 5520 AMS also has the ability to manage, download and activate the network
element software. An operator has the ability to select which software package he
wants to download to one or multiple network elements. This can be done
immediately or can be scheduled. Once downloaded the operator can activate the
SW on the network element.

Scheduling

The 5520 AMS scheduling agent allows the operator to create schedules that can be
used in other applications like SW download or backup. Both one time and repetitive
schedules can be created.

User/session Management

A user can be created and a specific profile can be assigned to him. This profile is a
set of functional rights to perform certain actions on specific applications.

When an operator logs in, the operator must provide a username and password. Once
authenticated, a user session is created between the operator position and the
server. This session is used to uniquely identify the operator. All actions of a user
that modify the network are being logged and saved in a log file.

RADIUS/LDAP authentication

Local and Remote operator authentication is possible. Remote authentication is


based on the use of an LDAP server.

The RADIUS protocol enables an operator to utilise a centrally located authentication


server to authenticate the operators when they log in. The EMS can address the LDAP
server directly or through a RADIUS server

4.6 THE 5520 AMS SOLUTIONS

Network Pre-provisioning

The 5520 AMS is the core system for network commissioning and pre-provisioning
activities. The 5520 AMS provides the capabilities for infrastructure preparation,
equipment planning and service planning.

Before network equipment is deployed, the equipment is pre-provisioned with the


appropriate configuration. Via the use of Profiles the network elements are
prepared. In every type of NE, there is a list of profiles; each profile type represents
a set of coherent parameters.

The 5520 AMS provides the capabilities to manage profiles in a structured way i.e.
profiles are typically grouped together and associated with a typical
service/equipment rollout. Therefore the 5520 AMS offers the use of profile
Templates and Template Groups.

Profiles can be setup and tested in a lab environment. Profile configuration can
either be done with 5520 AMS or with direct Craft access. The profiles can be
uploaded to the AMS and be managed through Profile Templates. It is also possible
to first create the templates on the 5520 AMS and then download them to the NEs.

The 5520 AMS allows to group templates in a Template Group. Template Groups are
typically associated with a certain Equipment type or a Service. The 5520 AMS can
download a Template Group to one or multiple network elements. This allows for a
new network wide service introduction. Once downloaded, the equipment is pre-
provisioned and further service and equipment provisioning can take place.

The 5520 AMS can manage the Network Equipment Planning. The 5520 GUI gives an
advanced representation of the NE equipment state.

Shelves and Boards can be provisioned via Craft or via 5520 AMS. The 5520 AMS is
able to monitor the resulting states. The 5520 AMS gives a consistent view on board
planning using a specific color scheme in the GUI.

Boards have a planned state (configured in 5520 AMS) and a detected state (in the
network). The 5520 AMS discovers the detected state and compares it with the
planned state. Both states are represented in the 5520 AMS GUI.

This results in an appropriate management of Equipment Planning. The AMS displays


the plugged configuration and notes deviations from the planned configuration via an
appropriate colour scheme. This is important when trying to describe the state of an
NE to a technician in the field who might have to make changes.

Apart from the


planned
and the Figure 6 : The 5520 AMS GUI Board state representation.
detected state, the 5520 AMS provides additional information on the actual Power
state, the Administration state, the Availability state and the Operational state. In
this way, the 5520 AMS allows to be an important component in the Network Planning
and Building solution.

Network Equipment Troubleshooting

The 5520 AMS is the core system for network troubleshooting. The 5520 AMS allows to
navigate between the Alarm and the equipment view. For detailed troubleshooting,
the 5520 AMS generates specific Table views for long lists of information. The tables
can be sorted and re-arranged easily to draw the operator’s attention.

The 5520 AMS provides dedicated alarm view windows. Most of the AMS GUI windows
include object’s info with alarm info. For instance, the equipment tree view, the
equipment object details window and the graphical equipment view include the
alarm state info.

4.7 ACCESS CONTROL

The AMS allows assignment of roles to users to limit the access they have to network
equipment and services even after successful login. At creation, each user is assigned
a functional access profile and a partition access profile.

Functional Access Profile

This profile defines the actions that the user can perform. Following default
functional access profiles are available:

 Viewer – User can view, but not modify, network and equipment information.
 Constructor – User can create and delete objects within the Network.
 Administrator – User has no restrictions.
 Software Administrator – User with Software management capabilities only.

The administrator can create additional profiles and the following functional areas
can be assigned to the profile: alarm, backup, cpevendorid, customizablehelp,
license, monitor, network, restore, schedule, sip, snmp, sntp, swmgmt, template,
tl1gw and usermanagement.

This allows to create specific user profiles such as :

- Maintenance operator profile


- User Security Administrator profile

If the AMS is integrated with optional modules, the list of functions will be updated.
For example APC is an optional module. When it is integrated with the AMS, specific
apc-functions will become available for user profile management.

Partition Access Profile

On top of the functional access profile, additional restrictions can be


enforced through the use of partition access profiles. Partition Access
Profiles (PAP) allow limiting an operator's visibility to a specific area of the
access network. When creating a network element a specific PAP is assigned
to that network element. The operator has only access to a network
element if the PAP profile assigned to the operator contains the PAP of the
network element. Several PAP profiles can be assigned to an operator.

4.8 AUTHENTICATION

Operators are authenticated via a local userid-password mechanism or via a


centralised authentication database through the use of RADIUS or LDAP. The AMS can
address the LDAP server directly or through a RADIUS server as illustrated in Error:
Reference source not found

Figure 9 -User Authentication

The operator profile can be provided via RADIUS through Vendor Specific Attributes
(VSA). In case the Radius server doesn't return the operator profile, the assigned
profile will be the locally defined default one.

4.9 SECURE COMMUNICATION

The following secure protocols are available toward the NE: SNMPv3, SSH and SFTP.

Backup Restore and SW download using SFTP


Backup Restore and SW download using SFTP

SFTP can be used for providing security in Backup/restore and SW download.

The NE (e.g. ISAM/GPON node) has to be configured as SFTP client and the AMS file
server works as SFTP server.

The AMS supports password authentication and public key authentication.

Secure NE communication through SNMP V3

The AMS is able to communicate with an NE that supports SNMPv3. (snmpGet,


snmpGet-Next, snmpGet-Bulk, SnmpSet, SnmpWalk). SNMPv3 traps are also
supported.

The SNMP connection information is present inside an SNMP Security Profile object.
The SNMP Security Profile contains all relevant security parameters together and can
be assigned to the NE.

The NE will be configured through CLI (telnet/SSH to NE and change configuration).


In other words an operator will have to create the SNMP users on the NE directly, and
not through the AMS.

Continuous support of SNMP v1.

The AMS will continue to support SNMPv1 at the same time. For example, a user can first
connect to the NE through SNMPv1 by specifying the right SNMP Security Profile, and then
disconnect from the NE (i.e. stop the supervision) and reconnect to it through SNMPv3 by
specifying a different SNMPv3 Security Profile.

SNMP Security Profiles

 The SNMP connection information is configured in the SNMP Security Profile object. A
user has to create the profile with the right SNMP parameters. When creating an NE
connection, the user has to select the corresponding profile. A set of default profiles
is created at AMS installation time. They cover all the SNMP variations (i.e. SNMPv1,
SNMPv3 AuthWithPrivacy, SNMPv3 NoAuthNoPrivacy).

 A user can create new SNMP Security Profiles, assign them to NEs, and can also delete
an SNMP Security Profile if it has NOT been assigned to any NE yet. A user can edit an
SNMP Security Profile even if it was assigned to different NEs. After editing the
profile, the NEs that were using it will be using the newly configured parameters that
the SNMP Security Profile contains.

 An SNMP Security Profile has an unique name. When creating a new Profile, its name
must be unique, otherwise an error message will be displayed and the create
operation fails.

SNMP Security Profile Parameters

 The AMS has the SNMP version as a selectable field inside the SNMP Security Profile
window.

 When SNMPv1 is selected, the user has to enter the corresponding parameters (port
number, read and write community strings) in order to create the Profile.
 When SNMPv3 version is supported, the user must enter the following parameters:
context name, security level, security name, authentication protocol and its
corresponding password, encryption protocol and its corresponding password.

Support of different levels of security

 The AMS allows to configure three security levels. These are:

1. No Authentication and no Encryption (basically similar to SNMPv1)

2. Authentication and Encryption

3. Authentication with No Encryption

5. SPLITTER RECOMMENDATIONS (SPLITTERS
NOT INCLUDED IN OFFER)

Splitters:

Splitting can be done in a single or multi stage, with splitting up to a maximum of


64 per PON interface. Splitters are available on the market as 1:2, 1:4, 1:8, 1:16, 1:32
and 1:64

Realizing that splitters are the most optical budget consuming elements in a PON
network, it is necessary to identify and select products that can meet an overall
best optical performance with the lowest possible Insertion Loss in order to
optimize the network span. Small size, high reliability, and low cost of these
optical splitters are important for ensuring a good end-to-end performance.

7. REFERENCES

Alcatel-Lucent has an extensive experience with FTTH projects, based upon PON
technologies as supported by its 734x Intelligent Services Access Manager
Fiber-To-The-User (ISAM FTTU) product family.

Alcatel-Lucent sees Gigabit Passive Optical Networking (GPON) as the


dominant PON technology to be deployed by operators in Europe and Asia. Early
FTTU deployments – especially in Japan (NTT) and US – are gradually converting
towards GPON, especially when the scale of the projects enlarge. The increasing
number of GPON focused RFQs, further reinforce this worldwide trend.

“There is an increasing adoption of GPON all over the world, with incumbents as well as
local communities selecting it as key access architecture. We are currently involved in
more than 60 FTTx projects worldwide, more than 30 of which include GPON,” said Dirk
Van den Berghen, head of Alcatel-Lucent’s access network activities.

“Alcatel-Lucent has led the industry from technology innovations to standardization. We


are a key member of the FSAN standards body and a major contributor to the GPON
standards. Our innovation and expertise demonstrate our commitment to delivering a
long-term strategic advantage to our customers and their access networks.”

Alcatel-Lucent is in various stages of implementation (lab-, field trial or initial


deployment) of FTTx projects, on a worldwide basis. In Europe we have more
than 20 GPON references and in addition we have significant field deployment
experience in FTTN & FTTB rollouts (Swisscom, Belgacom) using VDSL
technology.

For 2007, we foresee a mass production volume capacity of over 500 K ONTs and
corresponding line card volume. Volume can be further increased based on firm
customer commitments beyond that.

In attachment you’ll find a selection of public, worldwide FTTH references. Note


that some non-listed projects are subject to non-disclosure agreements.

Herewith a summary of some ongoing ETSI projects:

Generation Access network.

Press Release

FT-Orange group chooses GPON technology

On December 15, 2006 , France Telecom announced the second phase of its
Fiber To The Home (FTTH) plan. After an initial pilot phase with Alcatel-Lucent in
2006, the aim is to connect 150-200K subscribers (of an estimated potential of 1

million) by the end of 2008, to its very high speed broadband services. Broader
deployment of FTTH is foreseen in 2009 and beyond, when the content and
services will be available to justify the capacity up to 100 Mbps for its customer
base. FT-Orange group chooses GPON technology, as the GPON architecture
allows for lower fibre installation and civil engineering costs. The total investment
over the two years is estimated at 270 million euros and is in line with the FT's
NExT (New Experience in Telecom services) strategy in terms of the ratio of
CAPEX to consolidated revenues. The NExT programme will enable the FT Group
to pursue its transformation as an integrated operator, supported by its renewed
model for profitable growth.
Didier Lombard, the (Orange) Group’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer,
explains: “After an initial pilot phase in 2006, the Group is stepping up a gear, increasing
the range of very high speed broadband services available with Orange as well as
expanding the regional coverage of its network for the future. This new phase will pave
the way for the broader deployment of fibrer to the home, which we foresee in 2009 and
beyond, when there will be content and services available which would justify such
capacity for many of our customers.”

See the press release of December, 15th:

Furthermore, the mobile operator Orange Slovensko (a subsidiary of the


Orange group in Slovakia) announced that it will launch Triple Play services in
three major Slovak towns - Bratislava district Petrzalka, Trnava and Piestany.

This Fiber To The Home (FTTH) project, based upon GPON technology,
will deliver HSIA, digital TV and VoIP services to residential subscribers.

Alcatel-Lucent also recently signed a contract for the commercial trial of GPON
technology introduction to Telekomunikacja Polska (TP), the largest operator
in Central-Eastern Europe region. Alcatel-Lucent will provide a solution based on
ISAM 7342 FTTU including OLT, ONT equipment, training and end-to-end
deployment services. This is the first GPON deployment in TP's network as the
basis for the future oriented high speed internet access services for high density
residential areas. The ISAM 7342 GPON platform has been selected as the
preferred solution for the commercial trial after successful tests in TP R&D lab.

TransACT Capital Communications, a Canberra-based telecommunications
carrier, will complete a fibre to the home (FTTH) rollout to new greenfield sites in
Canberra. The network will cover 1,000 premises and an anticipated population
of 2,500 people by 2013.
Project developers in Canberra, in conjunction with the Land Development
Agency, issued a tender for the FTTH project last year, which was subsequently
won by TransACT. The deployment is TransACT’s first venture into Gigabit
passive optical network (GPON) FTTH technology. Alcatel-Lucent was then chosen
after a competitive tender process against eight other providers to design and
deploy the network.

Kuwait’s Ministry of Communications goes for FTTU

Already in August 2005 – Alcatel-Lucent has been chosen by the State Ministry
of Communications (MOC) in Kuwait to supply a GPON solution to serve about
60 % of the access areas. Meanwhile some 29 000 GPON ONTs have been
delivered for deployment.

Alcatel-Lucent, as strategic partner to MOC, is responsible for the full end-to-end


system integration, both for the network and the service roll out.

By replacing the existing copper access with a passive optical fiber


infrastructure, MOC's access network is gradually upgraded. Subscribers are
already benefiting from this state-of-the art converged access infrastructure that
enables the delivery of services like voice, high speed Internet, voice and
multimedia over IP, and IPTV (including high definition TV, video on demand, and
home entertainment).

"Based on the latest telecommunication technology, the new network will be the platform
from which to provide an extensive range of broadband and narrowband services to
Kuwaiti homes. It will position Kuwait as the country with the most advanced
telecommunications infrastructure in the region. We also believe that selecting a major
vendor like Alcatel is a key to success", said Mr. Nabeel Bin Salamah, assistant
Undersecretary, Kuwait MOC.
