Riverstone Networks Network Device SSG - Manual (Page 15)

The Alcatel 5070 SSG ANSI is a good fit
for a variety of service provider types.
Incumbent Local
Exchange Carriers
ILECs can use the Alcatel 5070 SSG ANSI to
consolidate their existing STP infrastructure,
thereby minimizing maintenance and operational
overhead. The Alcatel 5070 SSG ANSI can also
be used to provide signaling services for ILECs
moving towards converged networks. Its flexible
interfaces allow ILECs to provide signaling
services for data, voice or converged networks.
Competitive Local
Exchange Carriers
CLECs can deploy a pair of Alcatel 5070 SSG
ANSIs to offer SS7 services in new markets
at minimal cost. The Alcatel 5070 SSG ANSI
is extremely cost-effective, as well as scalable,
so it is the perfect signaling solution for CLECs.
Flexible interfaces allow CLECs to provide
signaling services for data, voice or converged
networks for their own use or to provide
these services for other carriers.
Long Distance Carriers (LDCs) — CLDC and
XLC LDCs can use the Alcatel 5070 SSG ANSI
either to consolidate their STP networks or to
enter new markets. The Alcatel 5070 SSG ANSI
can also be used to provide signaling services
for LDCs moving towards converged networks.
Flexible interfaces allow LDCs to provide
signaling services for data, voice or converged
networks.
Smaller Carriers
Smaller service providers benefit from the
Alcatel 5070 SSG ANSI’s ability to host a number
of database applications and a large number
of links in a single frame configuration.
Wireless Carriers
Wireless carriers can use the Alcatel 5070
SSG ANSI to provide wireless world roaming
with next generation technologies. Alcatel’s
comprehensive ALR implementation provides
wireless carriers a tool for flexible and efficient
network operation, covering HLRs, SMSCs
and voice mail/unified messaging systems.
