Nortel Networks iNext-generation optical platforms extend the benefits of optical into metro networks—transforming them into cost-effective, optimized, agile architectures. Metro network planners may need to add-drop DS1s, DS3s, EC-1s, and Ethernet circuits; hub OC-3 and OC-12 optical rings, as well as OC-48 traffic; and support IP, ATM and optical wavelength services that stretch the capacity of existing fiber. Looking further, many carriers need to deliver end-to-end services that span multiple metro areas, even globally. In that scenario, metro networks are squeezed from both sides. On the backbone side, optical technologies such as dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) at line rates of 10 Gbps and up, offer up huge volumes of bandwidth.

OpenCell is designed to extend the coverage and capacity of multiple wireless carrier networks using a single platform connected through fiber optic networks. Transcept's TransCell™ 1900 TM system targets TDMA operators looking for economical coverage options for mobility corridor and rural application. OpenCell's remote transceivers (Radio Access Nodes) are multi-protocol and frequency-independent, and are deployed to create a network of microcells. Within a RAN, each wireless service provider "tenant" has an independent RF signal path. RANs are interconnected via digital fiber links to a centrally located OpenCell Hub. This Hub provides connectivity to each tenant's base station electronics. Each HUB can scale to support one to three sectors of a base station and multiple BTSs of common or multiple WSPs.
