The Impact of Carrier Ethernet on Mobile Service Providers

Carrier Ethernet for Mobile BackhaulIf you haven’t explored the white paper section of the Dorado website, it’s worth a piece of your time. For instance, there’s a great white paper available that takes a look at managing next generation service provider networks. The upside of the advent of mobile internet service is the ability for service providers to expand their footprint and market share by a significant percentage. This will only come if Service Providers are able to meet the demand while maintaining efficient networks and smoothly transitioning to Carrier Ethernet for Mobile Backhaul.

The challenges of transitioning to Carrier Ethernet include the costly mistakes made in infrastructure planning if not carried out effectively. These mistakes can result in an unsatisfied public, increased competition and loss of market share.

The paper goes on to explain further challenges that service providers experience from the “dizzying array of potential solutions for addressing carrier ethernet for mobile backhaul”. These divergent solutions create problems in terms of managing the entire network: different vendors provide different management solutions. Trying to manage an expansive carrier ethernet network using a myriad of management applications only leads to problems.

We don’t want to spoil the ending but you can probably deduce that the Dorado Redcell family of tools has something to do with the solution. Download the whitepaper for yourself and get ready for a good read.
