traffic needs over transport networks by enabling multiple-
layer convergence in a single node. ISA plug-ins can
be placed in new or previously installed Alcatel-Lucent
OMSN devices when and where needed. These blades
improve bandwidth management and reduce both transport
infrastructure costs and time-to-market for introducing
new broadband data services in the network, ultimately
reducing both capital expenditures (CAPEX) and
operating expenditures (OPEX).
Ethernet VPNs and triple play services
The growth, penetration and profitability potential of
carrier-class Ethernet services are deeply significant to
service providers offering metro and wide-area Ethernet
services over an extensive variety of technologies.

Today flexibility also means the ability to support
broadband data services and multimedia applications in the
network. The Alcatel-Lucent OMSN products offer service
providers the ability to deliver several different types of
multiprotocol services for the best balance between new
broadband data services and high-margin traditional-voice
and leased-line services.
Alcatel-Lucent OMSN products, equipped with ISA plug-
in blades that perform Ethernet, ATM or video switching
functions, enable new network applications such as 3G
mobile aggregation, VPLS and triple play services, with
strict QoS and SLA controls. The extensive range of
ISA packet-based engines allows operators and service
providers to cope with current and future broadband
