SBO-MBX bandwidth optimization performance

Bandwidth reduction performance depends on the nature/split of the traffic

(2G, 3G, Voice, Data):
- 100% 3G Iub traffic : 65% data + 35% voice & signaling traffic:
- IP based IuB : 30% savings
- ATM based IuB : 45% savings
- 100% 2G Abis traffic : 40% data + 60% voice & signaling traffic:
- 65% savings
- Mix of 3G Iub and 2G Abis traffic
- average 50% savings

Further VoIP traffic can be optimized from 60 to 80% (3:1 to 5:1)

Bandwidth savings techniques : Abis

The I-Gate 4000 SBO-MB performs Abis interface optimization which includes:
Idle channel suppression (see Section 5.4.2)
Silence Removal (see 5.4.1)
HDLC flag removal
TRAU frames optimization
VAD Enhancing optimization
Extended GPRS/EDGE optimization
while maintaining the quality, reliability, and synchronization of the original (pre
optimization) traffic.

The I-Gate 4000 SBO-MB supports automatic Abis interface detection allowing
the automatic detection of user traffic, signaling, idle and HS pool channels (see
Section 5.5.6). This facilitates the operational work of the mobile operator.

COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL COPYRIGHT 2013 DIALOGIC INC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. 23

Bandwidth savings techniques : ATM based Iub

The I-Gate 4000 SBO-MB supports the following ATM traffic optimization modes:
AAL mode: AAL2, AAL5, and ATM layer headers are optimized and idle cells are removed.
ATM mode: ATM layer headers are optimized and idle cells are removed.
ATM cells padding removal.
smart ATM cells drop in time of congestion
Grooming: All ATM cells, except idle cells, are transparently transmitted. Idle
cells are removed.

The I-Gate 4000 SBO-MB supports the AAL Auto-Detection feature, which performs
automatic detection and classification of the AAL0, AAL2, and AAL5 ATM cells.

For ATM links, the operator can configure the type of optimization applicable per configured VCC
(VPI, VCI) as follows:
AAL0 or AAL2 or AAL5: performs AAL optimization mode
ATM: performs ATM optimization mode
Grooming

Bandwidth savings techniques : IP based Iub
The I-Gate 4000 SBO-MB supports header optimization for all protocol layers from Layer 2 up to
and including RLC. (See Section 5.1).
The I-Gate 4000 SBO-MB supports optimization for the following transport bearers (see Section
5.6.2 "UMTS Channels"):
Iub DCH
Iub HS-DSCH
Iub E-DCH
Iub FACH
Iub RACH
Iub PCH
The operator can define Iub stream flows based on Ethernet, VLAN and/or BVI selection. The
operator can define the destination for the stream flows of selectable Iub service types from the
following list:
Voice: all voice transport bearers also combined with SRB (Signaling Radio Bearer)
DCH Data: all DCH Data transport bearers (could be combined with SRB)
HSPA: all HS-DSCH and E-DSCH transport bearers
Signaling: NBAP, PCH, RACH, FACH1, FACH2 and SRB DCH transport bearers

The I-Gate 4000 SBO-MB performs automatic detection of Iub service type and frame format.

Savings of 46% for 4 E1 lines of Abis traffic and 8 Mbps of Iub traffic with 70% data traffic.
Savings of 23% for 4 E1 lines of Abis traffic and 24 Mbps of Iub traffic with 100% data traffic.
Bandwidth savings will vary from one network to another as well as from one POA to another.
