Wireless operators continually are under pressure to reduce the increasing cost of delivering advanced 3G services while meeting growing subscriber demand for bandwidth and performance. Ciena can help.

Our highly flexible network solutions expand 3G backhaul capacity without jeopardizing existing revenue streams from 2G networks. Our FlexSelect Architecture combines multiple services—Ethernet, TDM, IP/MPLS, ATM, WDM, OTN and service layer management—to meet all capacity, performance and service-mix requirements on a unified backhaul infrastructure. By reducing your dependency on leased-line contracts, Ciena can help you lower recurring operating costs in the RAN by up to 50 percent, and enable a seamless migration path to new 3G standards.
