Many mobile operators have deployed a traditional IPoDWDM architecture for mobile backhaul, which was sufficient when network traffic was dominated by voice and some data services. However, to meet the demand for exploding OTT content services, mobile operators need to plan for 10G bandwidth to the macro and subtended small cells and consider a network architecture that breaks the current cost curve by deploying a lower-cost, high-performance packet-optical network.
