Carriers’ activities and positioning
Several Service Providers have undertook lab tests and
field trial of different PTN solutions: MPLS-TP, PBB-TE,
IP/MPLS
MPLS-TP emerged as the preferred solution for large
scale PTN deployments
Multi-service transport platforms
Broadband and mobile backhauling
Ethernet Private Line services
MPLS-TP significant deployment has started this year
… and hence the urgent need for availability of multi-vendor PTN
solutions with proven carrier class OAM is critical
Draft-bhh based OAM is a de facto standard in China

OAM solutions investigation for PTN 2/2
Operator’s preference depends on the
application domain, network evolution
strategy, etc.
E.g. priority is maximizing synergy with transport-oriented Operational
and Management practices already in place (as draft-bhh provides)
respect to maximizing the same behavior for evolving IP/MPLS
networks (as extension of IP/MPLS OAM tools can provide)

From 2008Q1~2009Q3,Lab test
and field trial of three researched
solutions for 3G wireless backhauling:
pre-MPLS-TP based PTN, PBT
based PTN and IP/MPLS.
From 2009 Q4~2010Q1, it has built
a pre-MPLS-TP based PTN network
with more than 38000 PTN
equipments distributed in about in
140 metro areas, to supporting TD-
SCDMA wireless backhauling and L2
VPN services for business customs.
In 2010 Q2-Q3, the 2nd centralized Typical Metro PTN network topology
purchasing of more than 100,000 in China Mobile. 5387 PTN nodes are
PTN equipments based on draft-bhh used for wireless backhauling,
OAM are on going. broadband (PON-OLT) backhauling,
