Built to Deliver
The Alcatel-Lucent 7705 SAR delivers IP/MPLS and
pseudowire capabilities in a high-density, future-proof
architecture that will enable you to address evolving
aggregation requirements. It is architected to provide
superior service delivery through effective provisioning,
traffic management, troubleshooting and billing features.
The 7705 SAR platform delivers strong convergence
capabilities in the mobile RAN. With native service
processing of 2G, 3G and 4G traffic, it has the ability
to groom multiple media and transport protocols onto
a normalized, economical packet transport infrastructure.
Industry-leading scalability and density is provided in a
compact unit offering a flexible mixture of multiport T1/E1,
10/100 Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, along
with ATM/IMA, TDM and Ethernet pseudowires over
MPLS for legacy service support.
On the network side, media connectivity options are: Fast
Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet and n x T1/E1 (MLPPP). The
platform can be optionally configured with a redundant
core module and uplinks.
The 7705 SAR is ideally suited to these applications:
• Radio access network aggregation and backhaul
¬ Convergence at the cell site or hub (point
of concentration)
• T1/E1 private line services
¬ Modernized, normalized transport of legacy services
¬ Fixed-mobile convergence over a packet backbone
The 7705 SAR extends the intellectual property and
field-hardened service capabilities of the 7750/7710
Service Router platform.
