predecessor the iPhone 4. This trend is set to continue with the launch of the iPhone 5. As features on mobile devices become more compelling and comprehensive, service providers need to ensure networks are able to constantly evolve in line with demand. Ciena’s Mervyn Kelly commented:


“The arrival of the iPhone 5 has brought with it more data hungry applications and capabilities than previous devices. Its deeper integration with Facebook means that consumers will be inclined to upload and download larger files than ever before. Apple Passbook, offering the ability to store retail coupons and travel documents,


will also boost demand. The increase in the consumption of such real-time, data-rich content will intensify the challenging situation operators find themselves in, trying to satisfy the growing demand for bandwidth in a viable and profitable manner. Key to this is ensuring that the backhaul portion of the network can cope. The backhaul connects base stations to the core network and has a great impact on the quality of service consumers get. Operators need to optimise their backhaul networks to handle high-bandwidth services. Carrier Ethernet offers operators a sound solution to this challenge, combining a


cost-effective and scalable architecture that allows carriers to control costs while supporting the next-generation of mobile applications. Putting in place sufficient capacity and resiliency in the backhaul will help operators to cope with the demand for additional bandwidth generated by increasingly powerful smart devices such as the iPhone 5.”
