1 The Future of of Ethernet Nan Chen President, MEF 1

2 MEF Worldwide Community Since 2001, Accelerating the Adoption of Carrier Ethernet Networks and Services 221 Member Companies 130 Service Providers 40+ Technical Specifications 154 CE 1.0 & 38 CE 2.0 Companies 1250 MEF-CECPs 2 2

3 Ethernet The Ambitions of a Network Technology I just want to share printers I just want to connect PC s I want speed I want to be everywhere But not like that old slow, expensive, boring TDM And to be predictable, reliable like. like a Carrier Ethernet! 3 3

4 Carrier Ethernet The Ambitions of a Network Technology I want it To be really smart, on-demand To reach any application from anywhere Real easy with zero-touch automation Like picking up the phone or turning on the tap Yes that s the future of Ethernet 4 4

5 The Future of Ethernet I want Carrier Ethernet to be just like TDM! From Control/Management Planes perspective. 5
