Coverage by Foreign Media of ZTE Winning “Best Green Innovation” Award

1. ZTE DSLAM improves carbon footprint http://totaltele.com/View.aspx?ID=9950&t=1Green innovation award confirms market leading power reduction benefits

LONDON, UK, 6 May, 2008 - ZTE, a leading global provider of telecommunications equipment and

network solutions, today reveals that its award winning Broadband Universal Access System could

help operators make a major impact on their carbon footprint as well as save millions of dollars a year

in power costs. ZTE‘s DSLAM ZXDSL 9806 overreaches the European code of conduct on energy

consumption for broadband equipment, offering significant power consumption savings per port.

“Operators are becoming increasingly aware of their responsibility towards the environment,” said

Zhang Xinyu, director, global market, fixed network management team at ZTE. “ZTE’s DSLAM

solution enables broadband providers to radically reduce their carbon footprint and has recently been

recognized as the ‘Best Green Innovation’ at the Convergence World Awards,” he added.


ZTE’s 9806 is a network device offering up to 96 ADSL2+ lines or 64 VDSL2 lines in a 2U rack and is

located near the customers’ location, so connecting multiple DSLs to a high-speed internet line using

multiplexing techniques. This Broadband Universal Access System is perfectly suited for this fiber-to-

the-x (FTTx) network architecture model and enables operators to build a next-generation broadband

network while reusing existing copper cables. This helps preserve operators’ existing investments and

maximize the revenues associated to new broadband services, including video-on-demand, IPTV, and

Internet games.

By equipping its DSLAM solution with a passive optical network (PON) uplink card, ZTE has reduced

the amount of fibre required - when compared to traditional, point-to-point Ethernet architectures -

allowing operators to serve multiple premises using a single optical fibre cable. This means ZTE’

s solution enables broadband operators to significantly limit their power consumption, achieving

substantial cost savings and a reduced carbon footprint.

ZTE’s Broadband Universal Access System

has been awarded the Best Green Innovation

award at Convergence World 2008, announced

last Tuesday April 29th at SOFTNET in London,

as well as the InfoVision award in the Access

Network Technologies and Services category

at the Broadband World Forum 2007 in Berlin,

Germany.

Analyst house Gartner has ranked ZTE as

the world's fastest growing provider of DSL

equipment in 2007. Over 35 million lines of

ZTE DSL products have been widely used in

60 countries and regions including Sweden,

Greece, Hong Kong, Argentina, India, Turkey,

Italy, Indonesia, and Brazil - making ZTE one of

the world’s top 3 DSLAM providers.

ZTE’s Broadband Universal Access System (ZXDSL 9806) has been awarded the Best Green Innovation award at Convergence World 2008, announced on April 29th at SOFTNET in London, UK, as well as the InfoVision award in the Access Network Technologies and Services category at the Broadband World Forum 2007 in Berlin, Germany.

ZXDSL 9806 is a mini DSLAM from ZTE’s next generation Ethernet (IP)-DSLAM product portfolio that has been designed to offer a solution to build next generation broadband network. The equipment size and users’ capacity perfectly suits for FTTB and FTTC network architecture topologies. ZXDSL 9806 offers to Telecom Carriers and Operators a smooth evolution path reusing copper cables for the last one kilometer. Choosing the right strategy for FTTx deployment is the challenge of Operators,

whether incumbent or alternative, willing to preserve their investment, optimize CapEx and OpEx expenditures while maximizing their revenues with new services. ZXDSL 9806 provides abundant service access means such as ADSL/ADSL2/ADSL2+, SHDSL, VDSL2 with Ethernet as well as with EPON or GPON (uplink/downlink) interface with aggregation network. Furthermore, in the new version (ZXDSL 9806 V.2.0) Voice ove IP (VoIP) subscriber ports are also available.

With the advantages of high integration, abundant service interfaces and flexible networking ability, the ZXDSL 9806 system can meet various requirements and demands:

1. Meeting demands of residential users to have high bit-rate access to Internet via broadband,to can play Internet games and to enjoy video on demand.

2. Meeting demands of commercial users on high QoS (Quality of Service) and new service facilities, such as videoconference, enterprise interconnection, VPN (Virtual Private Network) and voice packet.

3. Meeting the operation & maintenance requirements of broadband network, providing functions such as on-line test, SELT/DELT test and MODEM remote management.

To some extend ZXDSL 9806 can also be used for FTTC architecture. It can be installed in hardened outdoor cabinet or in existing outdoor Copper Distribution Frames and one or several sub-racks can be cascaded to aggregate a larger number of end-users.

Based on some operators’ feedback during lab trials ZTE ZXDSL 9806 has been ranked as the best in class in power consumption and in operation under high temperature environment. Indeed, ZXDSL 9806 overreaches the European code of conduct on energy consumption for broadband equipment from a power consumption stand point offering up to significant power consumption savings per port.

In order to achieve energy-saving objective, it has been focusing on the following sectors in the research lab

1. System Architecture

Choose proper System Kernel Solution, such as DSL chipset, switch and processors according to customer requirements.


Choose from these components depending most of the total amount of energy consumption.

2. Power Optimization

The selection of a rational power solution can improve energy utilization.

3. Power Management Features

Only the necessary components are active. Disable unnecessary functions according to different system states.

Feed the right energy according to working status.

4. Cooling system performances

Through detailed thermal design ZTE is choosing suitable cooling programs, which include controllable fans and natural cooling.

Further on, xPON uplink card allows operators significant savings, like:

1. Optical fiber investment between Telecom’s Central Building and the DSLAM.

2. Civil works of links and fibers like digging and trenching tasks, which usually need big drilling machines and trucks.

3. Energy usage based on the passive technology.

4. Human resource. P2MP architecture is much easier to manage and maintenan than P2P.

ZTE is in line with:


1. RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) Directive adopted by the European Commission, concerning the Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic equipment.

2. Code of Conduct Energy Consumption of Broadband Equipment by European Commission.

Analyst House Gartner has ranked ZTE as the world's fastest growing provider of DSL equipment in 2007. Over 35 million ports of ZTE DSL products have been widely used in 64 countries and regions including Sweden, Italy, Greece, Hong Kong, Argentina, India, Turkey, Indonesia and Brazil - making ZTE one of the World’s top 3 DSLAM providers.

1. Turkish Telekom has selected ZTE to deploy IP DSLAM in its triple play project. ZTE was awarded 1 million ports share and has delivered over 500,000 ports so far, including 3200 sub-racks of ZXDSL 9806.

2. In mid December 2007, CS IT, Sweden, selected ZTE to deploy ZXDSL 9806 in its network, which covers about 20 cities in Western Sweden, among them Mariestad, Borås, Kinna and Skövde. CS IT is now planning to roll out ZTE’s VDSL2 solution with both ZXDSL 9806 and CPEs in their entire network.
