Global Broadband Data Explosion

• Mobile subscriber growth

• 1B to 3.5B subscribers in 3.5 Years
• More Mobile lines than fixed in the
developing world
• Demand for Smart phones
• Data traffic volume from mobile devices
growing by more than 10X per year
• Broadband video will drive 80% of
mobile traffic
Backhaul capacity expansion is required

The Operators' Dilemma

Operators must expand their

market reach and introduce new
differentiated services
Their Networks need to be
upgraded to keep up with
Smartphone driven data demand
and prepare for 4G/LTE
However they often lack time, and
internal resources and expertise

The Mobile Internet Tsunami meets the Backhaul Bottleneck

Backhaul is the central

battleground for LTE network
migration
Even now backhaul is not
meeting the demand of 3G/HSPA
LTE backhaul requirements are
still not well understood by
operators
