Ethernet Business Services
Introduction Why market Ethernet Business solutions? This represents large revenue streams for Service Providers Commercial services market experiencing huge growth Most Service providers build separate networks Calix offers a unique value with Unified Access Infrastructure, all managed by CMS MEF global initiatives and service models have momentum MEF specifications are popping up in RFP s globally to access providers MEF Global Interconnect Initiative is driving retail/wholesale opportunity Calix solutions enable most competitive MEF service offerings Less CAPEX, lower OPEX best price, lowest install cost, highest margins/services 2

MARKET OVERVIEW Commercial Services Overview What is an Ethernet business service? Any network service that bills for Ethernet access or EVCs Commercial customers prefer Ethernet plug and play Financial benefits (CAPEX/OPEX savings) ONE protocol, ONE network Dynamic bandwidth allocation BW re-use, with oversubscription Simplifies wholesale & Access Peering, Interconnect, Access reach Bundles delivery of many services 4
Ethernet Access Fits Many Applications Applications and Vertical marketing opportunities Mobile Backhaul (MBH) Wholesale Access (BW) Cloud Access and Virtualization L2-VPNs Smart Grid Utilities and security surveillance Private Line replacement and Branch/retail Branch offices, Retail, POS-Point of Sale Healthcare, Telemedicine Education, Distance learning, remote training Financial applications and exchanges 5
Marketing MEF Services Embracing Ethernet services increases competitive position: Simplified sales engagement process Sign the contract quickly on new high BW sales Ask the customer three simple questions What sites would you like on the E-LAN? How much Bandwidth would you like to purchase at each site? What QOS VLAN priorities per EVC application? Capture growing wholesale revenue RFPs are asking for MEF compliant circuits CE Exchange E-NNI EVC 1 UNI 2 UNI 1 EVC 2 UNI 3 6
