Prepare for 3G Applications
The Challenge
While cellular traffic is already on the rise, experts predict a boom
in bandwidth usage once cellular providers migrate to 3G technologies.
The added bandwidth enabled by 3G will allow providers to offer a host
of new multimedia applications. This, in turn, will raise the average
bandwidth consumption per subscriber. To handle this increase, cellular
providers must begin adding additional capacity today to ease the transition
later. Leased lines with legacy cellular equipment on both ends is an
extremely expensive way to expand the network.
The Solution
Adding IP-based network capacity prepares for the advent of 3G and positions
a service provider to be early to market with new high-bandwidth services.
Wireless backhaul equipment allows cellular carriers to see not only a
12 month payback relative to leased line backhaul, but gives the scalability
and flexibility that the future of 3G applications will demand. Wireless
allows a tiered service plan and added bandwidth per subscriber without
upgrading equipment.
