1 RAD s Solutions Increase Revenues, Reduce TCO

2 Profitable Services. Fast Deployments. Easy Operations. Service providers today are struggling to implement services that are more profitable and less painful from the operations aspect. RAD Data Communications Service Assured Access solutions alleviate these pains with a toolkit to help service providers, wholesale carriers and mobile operators to increase their revenues and lower TCO throughout the service lifecycle. Based on a standard set of Carrier Ethernet tools, RAD s Service Assured Access solution makes it easier to plan, deploy, provision, and maintain existing and new services, allowing operators to offer a resilient, always-on service with predictable QoS/QoE. Profitable Carrier Ethernet Service assurance has become a must have to help control the bottom line: Increase Revenues: Improve customer stickiness Reduce churn SLA transparency Fast TTM SLA/Premium service introduction Upselling opportunities Reduce TCO: Automated operations Reduce truck rolls Minimize technician calls Reduce trouble-ticket handling

3 Who Benefits: Retail Providers of Business Ethernet Services Ability to deliver value added services with differentiated quality of service/ experience Predictable performance to minimize SLA violations International Service Providers End-to-end SLA monitoring across multiple 3rd party SP networks Carrier-to-carrier connectivity for guaranteed SLA between carriers Wholesale Providers Clear demarcation to meet SLAs Complete visibility and controlled service hand-off Timing synchronization as a service for LTE/LTE-A deployments Mobile Operators Leasing Backhaul Networks Performance validation of leased connections Meet mobile broadband/ LTE service requirements Cloud Providers Assured service quality and reliability between Data Centers Guaranteed Quality of Service/ Experience with assured access to the Data Center

4 Throughout the Service Lifecycle Service Assured Access is a collection of attributes that provide: Same service look & feel over any access Ethernet and legacy services Reliability & protection Advanced H-QoS Synchronization over packet Service visibility, end-to-end Performance monitoring SLA reporting Resiliency Link aggregation group (LAG) using IEEE LACP (link aggregation control protocol) Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (G.8032 ERPS) EVC protection (G.8031) Fault Management Automated fault detection & isolation Fast detection (3.3ms) of LOC EVC Alarm propagation (AIS & RDI) H/W based fault management, OAM (CC, LB, LT) Wire-speed loopback testing (L2/L3) Ongoing Performance Monitoring Scalable long term KPI collection engine One way delay measurements PM dashboard (SLA policies, correlation, violation alerts) End-customer PM portal & SLA reports PM as a Service

5 Service Turn Up Automatic installation Zero-touch configuration Auto-inventory discovery One-touch service validation On-demand remote modification TDM over Packet CESoPSN SAToP CESoETH (MEF-8) UDP/IP encapsulation Timing Synchronous Ethernet Built-in GPS Traffic Management Classification CIR + EIR traffic policing per flow (CoS) Hierarchical scheduling, shaping Congestion avoidance mechanism IEEE1588v2 TC & Slave for frequency & phase Distributed IEEE1588v2 GM Hybrid SyncE & 1588 ToD Service Management System Point-and-click provisioning Security access profiles, network partitioning GUI: Network clouds, links, nodes, end-to-end services, status indication Multi-platform JAVA for Windows, UNIX Northbound TMF MTOSI interface to NMS/OSS Ethernet Performance Monitoring Portal Collects, stores and presents KPIs from RAD devices Actual performance metrics based on ITU-T Y.1731: Frame delay (latency) Frame delay variation (jitter) Packet delivery ratio Availability Threshold policy management Performance dashboard with aggregated and drill-down views Instant and scheduled report generation Immediate detection of service degradation

6 Deployment Modes & Services Choose the Service Assured Access that is right for you: Build a Complete SAA Network with NTUs and Aggregators A complete Carrier Ethernet access solution, including smart demarcation and Ethernet service aggregation devices deployed in linear and ring topologies. Implement Service Assurance across the entire access, between customer locations for VPNs, across an Ethernet transport domain for mobile backhaul, intercarrier connectivity, IP VPN and Internet access, between Data Centers, and OTT cloud services. SAA NTUs for Existing Networks Add Service Assured Access capabilities to your network with RAD s intelligent Carrier Ethernet demarcation CPEs. Provision, monitor and manage your services end-to-end over your existing packet switched network. Instant Upgrade for 3 rd -Party Devices Get instant Carrier Ethernet functionality for your switches, router modules and Ethernet converters using MiNID RAD s miniature NID in an SFP form factor. Plugging the MiNID into these devices is a fast and easy way to implement Ethernet OAM capabilities and service demarcation in non-carrier Ethernet equipment. Cloud-based Service Assured Access (PMaaS) RAD is also offering a SaaS solution that includes a powerful performance monitoring software tool, a team of experts for monitoring and analyzing the reported data and a cloud-based infrastructure for easy and fast access to the SLA parameters. RAD s PM as a Service allows operators to derive value with minimal effort, by understanding the source of any problem or by forecasting needs and bottlenecks

7 PM as a Service (PMaaS): All the value, none of the pain Outsource your Service Assured Access operations to RAD: Service Provider Network RADview Server farm RAD SaaS Data Collection RADview PM collects KPI statistics from network devices (RAD ETXs or 3 rd party NIDs with MiNID) Data transmitted from service provider network to cloud over a secure VPN Customer-specific threshold control Expert Analysis Monitor actual performance vs. SLA Anticipate service degradation and SLA violations based on performance trends Isolate malfunctioning segments using fault analysis tools Forecast future demand per end-customer Reporting & Recommendations Deliver reports to SP via cloud-based PM portal Escalate QoS issues to SP operations Identify upselling opportunities End-user Reporting (optional) Deliver reports to end-user via cloud-based PM portal (modified view) Provide analysis and recommendations based on inter-organization usage Benefits Hit the ground running: Fast deployment of value added services Realize savings by turning CapEx into OpEx More satisfied customers No dedicated manpower or training required Fewer SLA violations and truck rolls No integration issues with OSS/BSS, overburdening the service network
