Access networks have advanced a great deal over the

hybrid FTTx subscriber access has become a reality.
Widely available networking equipment is realizing the
once distant dream of overall connectivity. The number
of subscribers with insufficient broadband connectivity
is rapidly decreasing due to widespread deployments

SI3000 Lumia Management
The SI3000 Lumia introduces a new approach to managing
complex network environments with the next-generation
management system SI3000 MNS 2.0.

The SI3000 MNS 2.0 eases network management with an effective

Web 2.0 GUI and full compatibility with different product
versions. The system enables the fast and easy deployment of
new network elements and supports mass upgrades. Unified
management enables network administrators to manage the
complex networking parameters centrally in a very simple way by
managing user- and service-centric profiles and focusing on fast
and reliable service provisioning.

The SI3000 MNS 2.0 can be run inside a virtual machine and
enables operation in the cloud. Hierarchical integration into
external OSS/BSS systems is provided via open north-bound
interfaces.

In small deployments the SI3000 Lumia can be managed using

the embedded Element Manager GUI, via CLI or via third-party
systems using SNMP, without the need for the SI3000 MNS 2.0. For
larger networks the use of the SI3000 MNS 2.0 is recommended as
it effectively lowers the OPEX.

SI3000 Lumia Deployment Options

Fiber-to-the-Home Suitable for: Incumbents, alternative operators, municipal
networks, power utilities, green-field deployments

When building a fiber-access network to

every subscriber (residential and business), it
is critical to select a long-term future-proof
investment. A combination of P2P and GPON
fiber last-mile technology is the ideal choice
for the delivery of Gigabit speeds to different
users at different geographies.

Choosing the FTTH deployment:

• Readiness for today’s and future ultra-high-
speed internet access and video services like
3D HDTV, Quad HDTV, Ultra HDTV, etc.
• Symmetrical bandwidth for high-
speed business VPN connectivity, HD
videoconferencing, cloud computing, user-
content sharing and collaboration
• Unsurpassed reliability via fiber media and
a reduced number of active locations nearly
eliminates OPEX
 FTTx Hybrid Access Suitable for: Incumbents, alternative operators

The deployment of FTTx-oriented access Why FTTx:

expenditure and speeds up the new service offering
and return on investment.

If it is there, why not use it? Past deployments

and recently unveiled global plans of FTTx-
based network access deployments prove that
copper connections are going to represent a very
significant share of end-user connections for the
next couple of decades. FTTx boosts the unused
potential of the copper access network and turns
it into a highly capable and future-proof access
solution for residents and business users.

Intelligent Service Access (ISA) Suitable for: Incumbents, alternative operators,

Building FTTx networks requires substantial capital • Lower investment in smart aggregation and L3 edge (BNG)
investments. Today’s competitive environment prevents an by triple-A functions and policy enforcement inside the

(investors in FTTx) gain the possibility to increase the ARPU network
with added-value service package offerings for specific user
groups (gamers, movie fans, specific businesses, etc.). ISA
also offers operators the opportunity to charge application
providers for the guaranteed quality delivery transport of
payable services.

After building FTTx last mile access, bottlenecks move to

another part of the network (IP-edge and aggregation), where
the number of expensive aggregation and core elements
(BNG/BRAS) has to be replaced or upgraded. In order to
lower the investment, the SI3000 Lumia with the ISA and
policy enforcement function offers the ability to authenticate,
authorize, account/charge (triple-A function) and manipulate
subscriber flows within the last mile.

Benefits of using Intelligent Access:

• Increase of ARPU by offering a differentiated added-value
service offer for specific user groups
• Increase of ARPU by charging for guaranteed QoS and
delivery of payable services
