An Innovative, Truly Packet Product
The Alcatel-Lucent 9500 MPR helps
ensure optimal performance for all
types of backhauling technologies
and enables smooth evolution of
existing TDM-based networks to
an all-IP network. It aggregates
many kinds of incoming traffic,
including 2G, 3G and WiMAX. High
perfor m ance and low latency for each
service and synchro n ization of these
services is achieved along the entire
backhauling network.
Service-Aware Transport
The Alcatel-Lucent 9500 MPR
supports adaptive packet transport
for exceptional use of radio fre q uency
spectrum and a dramatic improve-
ment in broadband traffic transmis-
sion. Our service-aware feature
directly maps all traffic, both
guaranteed and broadband, over the
radio frame. It recognizes the traffic
types in the incoming packets and

Guarantee 100%
automatically adapts to varying
microwave link conditions. For
instance, priority traffic, such as
video and voice, are assigned to the
most available packets across the
radio link, while less time-dependent
applications, such as Internet browsing
and e-mail, are given access based on
availability.
Simplified Growth
Because the Alcatel-Lucent 9500
MPR offers service-aware transport,
you can increase the number of
active users without the hassle of
transport constraints. This system
allows a dramatic increase in the
number of broadband users — up
to one hundred times that of E1-
or T1-based TDM solutions. You also
gain enhanced support for high-
bandwidth applications, such as music
downloading and streaming video.
