3Alcatel-Lucent | Partnering for Change
Access is the cornerstone of a tele -
com network. All end-user services
merge in the access nodes. The types
of services your end users want
continue to expand as technology
evolves at an unprecedented pace.
As a result, your access network
must be able to accept many differ -
ent services, topologies, technologies
and transport options. Faced with
such challenges, being able to man-
age the access network efficiently
and effectively is a vital requirement.
Among other things, you need
reliable management solutions —
solutions that will automate net -
work operation, administration
and maintenance. What’s more,
these solutions must be cost-efficient,
optimize operating expenses
(OPEX), provide quality of service
(QoS),
as well as achieve stringent time-
to-market objectives.
The Litespan Family
The Alcatel-Lucent 1353 Litespan Management System (LMS) is
part of the Alcatel-Lucent 1540 Litespan family. Each Alcatel-Lucent
1540 Litespan includes not only the multiservice gateway platform, but
also an integrated management system — the Alcatel-Lucent 1353 LMS.
This system manages narrowband and broadband services, transport links,
as well as subscribers for the Alcatel-Lucent 1540 Litespan Multiservice
Access Gateway.
The flexible, multiservice Alcatel-Lucent 1540 Litespan solution provides
basic narrowband voice and data services (using plain old telephone
system [POTS], integrated services digital network [ISDN] basic access/
primary rate access, voice over IP [VoIP] and digital leased lines), as well
as broad band services. Services include asymmetrical digital subscriber line
(ADSL) and symmetrical high bit rate DSL (SHDSL), giving users high-
speed Internet surfing and multimedia downloading (see Figure 1). For all
of these services, the Alcatel-Lucent 1353 LMS provides operation and
maintenance functions.
