CENX for Wireless Backhaul Aggregation TBA

Dramatically increasing numbers of mobile applications are spurring demand for carrier-class Ethernet in cell site backhaul. This trend is causing network operators to incur significant costs and delays in acquiring, integrating and managing diverse Ethernet access providers in an effort to create ubiquitous Ethernet backhaul coverage. The integration and ongoing management of multiple Ethernet access providers is complex and costly, and requires a scalable, world-class solution.

CENX's new Carrier Ethernet Exchange for Wireless Backhaul Service operates at strategically located CENX Exchanges that serve as aggregation points for various Ethernet wireless backhaul access providers. It eliminates the need by the wireless carriers for costly and cumbersome Ethernet backhaul service integration, resulting in significant cost savings. In addition, CENX enables ubiquitous, end-to-end service inventory and monitoring, regardless of the backhaul operating model (wholly-owned vs. shared infrastructure), the myriad of backhaul access providers or the diverse backhaul technology (switched vs. dedicated) or media (e.g., fiber, microwave, copper). Collectively, this provides wireless carriers with a normalized view of the operating state of all its backhaul services on per service basis.

CENX's innovative implementation of Carrier Ethernet successfully addresses the single biggest challenge in the industry: scalable delivery of the bandwidth required in the wireless backhaul space. CENX creates and manages a ubiquitous Ethernet wireless backhaul platform specifically designed to meet wireless carriers’ technical and operating requirements. At the same time it fulfills a critical and previously unmet need in network sharing models: independent service management for each carrier across a shared network. CENX delivers superior value, cost savings and time-to-market benefits to wireless carriers.

This new CENX service aggregates Ethernet circuits from various access providers and normalizes the service attributes (via service level mapping and translation) into a uniform service specifically designed to meet the unique requirements of each wireless carrier, while also providing industry leading service-level monitoring and off-net access circuit inventory management.
