Centralized Switching Architecture: TIA-942 Direct Connect Pro Lower cost than distributed architectures Simple to design, implement and maintain Minimized network bottleneck Good port utilization Easy device management Con Large number of cables Cable overlaps Difficulties in cable pathway design Lack of scalability 22

End-of-Row or Middle-of-Row Switching Architecture Pro Fewer number of cables than direct-connect architecture Good scalability Cost effective compared to top of rack (ToR) Con More capital expenditure on end of rack (EoR) and middle of rack (MoR) switches Increased management overhead 23

Top-of-Rack Switching Architecture Pro Most efficient cable use Efficient use of floor space Good scalability Easy cable management Con More switches to manage Higher AGG port count Higher STP logical ports in AGG More server-to-server traffic in AGG Potentially higher switch costs Thermal management risks Creation of hotspots 24

BYOD in the Enterprise "Even if you don't think you're doing BYOD, you're doing BYOD. It's a matter of whether you're doing it formally or like an ostrich. Alan Murray, Apperian 59% of businesses deploy line-of-business applications for mobile devices* 71% will be deploying a corporate "store" for mobile applications* 73% of companies expect to increase efficiency with BYOD and mobile apps* 5.3 Billion People Have Cell Phones Worldwide 24 Billion Connected Devices by 2020 Location Based Services allow customers/employees to interact with an organization from their mobile devices Enterprise Applications - Managers track corporate assets via GPS/M2M - Sales staff can easily access client data to increase productivity and reduce errors State of Mobility Survey 2012 by Symantec* 27

DAS Deployments In-building coverage wasn t designed for by the carriers, primarily focused on macro coverage Mobile data growth New devices iphone, ipads, Android phones and tablets 45% of all phones today are smart phones Bring your own device Workforce mobility via smart devices increasing rapidly (data/video) By 2014, nearly 75% of all workers will use cell phones as their primary work phone Multiple services, multiple carriers Multiband capability to handle multiple services Emergence of 4G, LTE, WiMAX, MIMO Multioperator requirement emerging rapidly especially for large businesses, multitenant/use, venue and campus environments Emergence of dual-mode phones both Wi-Fi and cellular 28

Why do you need IEEE 802.11ac? IEEE 802.11ac features Wider channels = higher data rates up to 1.3 Gbps per radio Higher encoding density = higher bit density per packet Increased number of spatial streams = higher data rates per AP/client link Beamforming = greater wireless AP/client link reliability Multiuser MIMO = greater AP/client capacity and efficient use of spectrum Bandwidth Network Congestion 30

Internet of Things Bring people, process, data and things together to add relevancy to valuable network connections 99.4% of physical objects still unconnected. 10 billion things connected out of 1.5+ trillion things From 2012 2022 $14.4 trillion of net profit globally will be driven by the Internet of Things 33

TIA-942-A Provision for LED Lighting To allow improved energy efficiency and control, energy efficient lighting (e.g., LED) should be considered as an option to implement the three-level lighting protocol, depending on human occupancy and function in data centers. 3 Level Lighting Protocol Level 1: data center unoccupied. Lighting should be sufficient to allow effective use of video surveillance equipment. Level 2: initial entry into the data center Level 3: occupied space - when the data center is occupied for purposes of maintenance or interaction with equipment 34

PASSIVE OPTICAL LAN (POL) 35

The Argument for Passive Optical LAN Cost The primary reason most enterprises consider POL Promises savings of 30-40% over a traditional LAN The savings over a Cisco powered LAN can be in the millions of $ Sustainable Design Power savings from elimination of all switches Cooling reduction, elimination of cooling/air handling in telco closets Lower maintenance costs POLs have lower cost management tools Easier and more economical to replace a 4 port WGT then a 24 or 48 port switch Good reliability record in FTTH deployments 36

POL Deployment Considerations Bandwidth Allocation Asymmetrical Prioritization of traffic ONT Sharing Resiliency Converged Networks Voice Video (surveillance, broadcast) Data 37
