| Broadband Access Servers (B-RAS) |
| A Broadband
Access Server (B-RAS) acts as the first edge router into an Internet
Service Provider’s (ISP) network. B-RASs terminate the customer’s PPPoE (Point-to-point over Ethernet) sessions and issue IP addresses. Broadband Access Servers (B-RAS) also perform the security function by authenticating each customer via a RADIUS (Remote Access Dial-In User Service) server before the customer is allowed access to the Internet. Some B-RASs also set up Layer-2 tunnels for virtual private networks (VPN) using such protocols as L2TP, PPTP and IPSec. B-RASs have several interface types including OC-3(ATM), DS-3, DS-1 and 10/100 Ethernet. |

| Alcatel 7750 Service Router |
|
The Alcatel 7750 Service Router (SR) is the industry’s first IP/MPLS router designed and optimized for the delivery of advanced Internet and Virtual Private Network (VPN) services. The Alcatel 7750 SR delivers industry leading density, performance and scaling in four configurations ranging from 20 Gbps to 400 Gbps full duplex capacity allowing it to address a diversity of service provider needs from the smallest to largest points of presence (POPs). At the heart of the Alcatel 7750 SR is a fully programmable, flexible fast path based on state-of-the-art network processor array (NPA) chip technology. The flexible fast path performs deep packet inspections and manipulations at 10 Gbps line rates. This enables the Alcatel 7750 SR to support tens of thousands of individual services using flexible IP and MPLS tunneling with per-service QoS and accounting, filters and Access Control Lists (ACLs) all at 10 Gbps line rates. The wide range of services that the 7750 SR can support includes: Direct Internet access (DIA); Ethernet, frame relay and ATM point-to-point Layer 2 VPNs (also known as virtual leased lines (VLLs)); Multipoint Ethernet Layer 2 VPNs (Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS)) and BGP/MPLS VPNs (RFC2547bis). |

| Video Encoders |
| Video encoders convert analog
video and audio signals to digital IP data packets using Motion Picture
Experts Group (MPEG) standards. High-quality digital broadcast video uses
the MPEG-2 standard, whereas lower resolution web-streamed video uses
the MPEG-4 standard. Digital packets leave the encoders to be carried
over a data network to a digital set-top box or personal computer. Video
encoders can be hardware-based for live broadcast video or software-based
for recorded video. Vendors for hardware-based encoders include Harmonics and Scientific-Atlanta, and Nexstream. Software-based encoders include Microsoft’s Media Servers, Apple’s QuickTime Server, and RealNetworks’ Helix Producer. |
| Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) |
| PSTN refers to the local, long distance, and international phone system which we use every day. In some countries it's only one phone company. In countries with competition, e.g. the United States, PSTN refers to the entire interconnected collection of local, long distance, and international phone companies, which could be thousands. |
| Alcatel 7301 ASAM |
 The
Alcatel 7301 Advanced Services Access Manager (ASAM) is the broadband
service platform (DSLAM) of the future that enables a graceful evolution
without forklift upgrades. The Alcatel 7301 offers high scalability at
the central office, providing up to 10,368 users on a single network interface
including all splitters. The new SANT-G card provides 5.0 Gbps switching
capacity with redundant 622 Mbps point-to-point links to each individual
slot. The system lowers operational cost by consuming little power—less
than one watt per line. Full flow through provisioning using the Alcatel 5526 Access Management System helps to manage large numbers of DSL users. The expanded backplane and the introduction of the Ethernet Service Module (GELT) creates the hardware architecture ready for video and entertainment services and provides broadband RAS functionally that includes VC aggregation, LT2P tunneling, and PPP termination. |
| 5950 Open Media Platform |
| The Alcatel 5950 Open Media Platform provides support from the following applications over a broadband connection (xDSL or FTTU): Broadcast Television, Electronic Program Guide (EPG), Video on Demand, Personal Video Recording, Gaming (provided by G-Cluster to play high-quality PC/console games via their set-top boxes using game controllers), TV Internet and PC Support. Release 3.0 will provide an improved user-interface to demonstrate ease of use and higher entertainment value, a network-based PVR that will allow content to be recorded from the subscriber's EPG and stored on a remote VOD server, Linux support, a personal portal development environment knows Personal Open Media that will allow customer and third-party applications to be enabled. |
| Class 4 Voice Switch |
| Class 4 voice switches connect long-distance calls and connect intra-LATA (metro calls or calls within area codes). Class 4 switches receive their traffic from Class 5 switches. Prior the Telecommunications Act of 1996, local phone carrier owned the Class 5 switch and intra-LATA Class 4 and long distance carriers owned the Class 4 toll-switches. This split of ownership has radically changed as local phone carriers enter the long distance market and long-distance companies build out their local networks. |
| Alcatel 5959 Open Video Server |
| The Alcatel 5959 OVS provides an open standard based MPEG video server using the real-time streaming protocol (RTSP) and runs on Linux or Silicon Graphics’ Irix servers. The Alcatel 5959 OVS supports MPEG 1/2/4 with full VCR functionality and uni- and multicasting for video-on-demand, pay-per-view, or personal video recorded content. |
| Game Servers |
| Today’s large
multiplayer games such as Everquest, Unreal Tournament, and Battlefield
1942 require a low latency network for optimal performance. Any avid gamer understands the term, “death by lag”. Today’s poor multiplayer game experience is due to the distance (and therefore time) between servers and end-users that are dispersed over the public Internet. Although a dedicated server can improve game processing, they do nothing to improve latency. If these servers are moved towards the edge and private VPNs with QoS are employed, the gamer can have a superior gaming experience that could be sold as a premium service. |
