What Can Be Done to Connect?
A broadband IP connection can be created anywhere in a matter of minutes after arrival of a transportable package
Interface mitigation can insure that this IP pipe created will efficiently support any application
Remote centers can support any application over the IP pipe
Base Stations or Radio Nodes can be delivered and commissioned in 24 hours or less
What Can Be Done to Serve?

Any element replaced must function in the carriers network and the worldwide network as it did before the disaster
Dialing plans must be the same
Global address must be the same
Network identifiers must be the same
For quick replacement, this must be planned
Network Element Replacement

30 Satellites using 3 frequency bands serve CANTO
All different each aimed at a specific subset of applications
CANNOT compare HZ to HZ on satellite systems must look at the cost of moving a bit for specific applications
GEO Satellite Technologies

NGN concepts allow the use of multiple transport stream technologies MTST to support bandwidth
GEOSAT, Inmarsat, MPLS is typical set
Extend the cloud with whatever can be made available

After the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, Globecomm helped re-store voice and date communications to approximately thirty Home Depot locations in the Southeast United States.
This allowed supply chain orders for urgently needed home and building materials to continue even with the absence of terrestrial communications.

Wildfires, Camp Hope, Ramona California
During the fires Globecomm provided Camp Hope with:
• Satellite equipment• Computers• Satellite Internet connectivity
- Provided fire victims a way to communicate with families
- Provided Wi-Fi to relief agencies working in the area, FEMA and the Red Cross, to better perform their tasks.
- Over 500,000 people fled. The fires destroyed over 1,400 homes and cost at least two lives in America’s most populous state.

A redundant Core can be located for each operator
A common Core can be created for the CANTO Group
Restoral services can be acquired from a Host
Dedicated or Hosted Restoral?
12
Connectivity Terrestrial restoral may be possible Satellite as back up for everything that cannot be done
Lost Core network Transfer to back up Transfer to hosted service
.
Data and Value added services Transfer to back up Transfer to hosted service
Restoring the Network
13
Requires a recovery team to evaluate every link
Requires replacement systems for each type of link
Requires detail engineering of each link Path Analysis Link Analysis Interference Analysis (not required for cable solutions) Structural Analysis
Terrestrial Connectivity Recovery

Available anywhere you can see the sky
Many types of satellite systems Direct Satellite Phones
(Irridium) Direct satellite Data Terminals
(Inmarsat) Leased bandwidth on
Geostationary Satellites New KA band shared bandwidth
systems
Even more types of satellite services
Satellite Connectivity
15
Irridium: A satellite based mobile telephone service
Inmarsat: A small data terminal need only the terminal and a subscription (Lap top size)
Traditional Geostationary (GEO) systems require a VSAT terminal and a bandwidth lease
Ka spot beam services
Satellite Systems (cost order)
16
A direct data service by satellite (voice only terminals also available)
Can be used to support a small wireline switch or low capacity cell site
An emergency communication strategy for internal or first responder use
Not practical for network restoral
Inmarsat BEGAN
17
Irridium connects directly to the PSTN providing emergency communications
It is a great first response technology
It is NOT a network restoral technology
Irridium
18
Capital costs are higher than Irridium and Inmarsat Bandwidth costs are much lower Automated terminals are available for this application
eliminating the need for a skilled operator (press the green button to start)
commonly used in commercial applications to isolated service areas
GEO satellite can be used for network restoral and continuity
(GEO) Satellite
19
Terminals allow a provider to establish robust communication access points wher ever and whenever they are needed.
A satellite-based system gives first responders the portable, reliable and interoperable communications needed under any conditions, from any place where they can see the sky.
Auto acquiring systems are important in this application, as first responders on the ground do not have the knowledge, equipment or time to worry about how to align a satellite antenna with a satellite above. In a disaster situation, they need to be able to press a button and go live.
Highly-Automated Satellite Terminals

This technology uses a cellular structure to allow frequency reuse
Most systems are planning shared bandwidth on a metered service basis
Raw bandwidth costs 10% of traditional GEO
New Breed KA Band Spot Beam Satellites

VPN to any any service restoration center CANTO owned dedicated center Globecomm Hosting center in NY Individual hosting centers Un effected CANTO networks equipped to support hosted services
Connectivity to The PSTN
Tier 1 on the Internet
Restoration with MTST
24
Recovery of a GSM cellular operator Lost 5% of Base Stations Lost NOC and call Center Lost Switching Center Lost all Local Telecommunications
An Example
25
Mobile Shelter with MTST deployed near or at switching center site
NOC and call center functions restored (Agility) Connect to hosted service center for all core services Deploy satellite supported RAN elements Deploy diesel generators where required
Systems Deployed
26
Core elements of the network at a hosting center can have separate servers for each network supported or have software loads ready to down loaded
RAN configurations are stored for all base stations supported
They are tested on the network as the replaced node before shipping
Requires planning
Element Replacement cont.
27
• Restore central office facilities
• Scalable solutions for a mixture of IT and end user recovery
• Pre-wired facilities for voice and data
• In combination with Quick Ship technology
• Auxiliary power generation via diesel generator
• MTST communications for voice and data
Mobile/Quick Ship Solutions

Restoral Core will have the same identity in the signaling network so all roaming will
Global address is maintained on the WW network Network titles are maintained on the WW network
Replacing Your Node on the World-Wide Network
29
An exercise for Disaster Recovery
When Globecomm hosts a network, it must use its Core, but be seamless to all other carriers and the world-wide network
Globecomm hosts the networks of Fifteen customers across the US, Africa and Afghanistan

Cost a moving a minute of voice is a function of availability and investment in he terminal
Typical GEO VSAT cost to move I minute of voice in a low density environment is: $.001 to $.005 at 99.95%
availability and 2% blocking Irridium orders of magnitude
higher
Cost to move data in the coming 3G environment?
Is Satellite Too Expensive?
