Alcatel-Lucent Strengthens Its Leadership in the Mobile Backhaul Market
Company expands its product portfolio to provide mobile operators with greater flexibility to meet exploding demand for mobile broadband services such as video and access to social networks
CHICAGO, Oct. 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- 4G World -- Alcatel-Lucent (Euronext Paris and NYSE: ALU) has once again been recognized for its leadership in the mobile backhaul market, with a new report by leading industry analyst firm Infonetics Research. In the report, Mobile Backhaul Equipment and Services - Biannual Worldwide and Regional Market Share, Size, and Forecasts, Alcatel-Lucent is cited as the leading vendor in the Ethernet cell site gateway and Ethernet mobile backhaul router market assessments for the first six months of 2011.
To build on that leadership, Alcatel-Lucent is enhancing its 7705 Services Aggregation Router (SAR) family to provide operators everywhere with a fast and efficient way of addressing the exploding demand for mobile broadband services such as video streams and downloads, mobile gaming, access to social networks and more. The new power-efficient, small footprint, high-performance 7705 SAR-M models provide operators with additional network flexibility in addressing their requirements for mobile backhaul, business services, and strategic industries such as Smart Grids.
The skyrocketing demand for high bandwidth applications is being driven by the widespread use of smartphones and tablets. Data applications require much more bandwidth than voice services, and operators need a more flexible and cost-effective way to quickly transform their backhaul networks to carry all of this mobile data traffic. In response to this need, Alcatel-Lucent has been building up its backhaul portfolio over the past several years, and has secured a market-leading position.
The new 7705 SAR-M models expand and enhance the existing 7705 Services Aggregation Router (SAR) family. They support a variety of cell site access options including nxDS1/E1, Gigabit Ethernet, microwave, OADM, GPON and xDSL. The 7705 SAR-M xDSL module, with support for up to 8-pair bonding over VDSL2, boosts data speeds over copper access networks and provides a clear evolution path to even higher data throughputs with VDSL2 Vectoring technology. Alcatel-Lucent's 7705 SAR product family makes the best use of operators' existing network access infrastructure - whether microwave, copper or fiber-based - to transport all traffic from voice through to LTE mobile broadband data services such as high-definition video. This provides operators with a solution that fully addresses all their customers' requirements in the speediest and most cost-effective way without compromising network performance.
Philippe Keryer, President of the Networks Group at Alcatel-Lucent, said: "Alcatel-Lucent's leadership in the mobile backhaul market combined with our deep understanding of networks operating in very different environments means that we can help operators evolve their offer to enter the mobile internet era and satisfy all their customers' requirements. The 7705 SAR-M forms part of our end-to-end mobile backhaul solution and complements our ground-breaking new lightRadio(TM) product family in supporting the swift delivery of the internet on the move, with the highest quality."
