SPO 1400 family
The Ericsson SPO 1400 family is a modular, scalable Packet Optical Transport Platform (POTP)
featuring flexible, carrier class packet, OTN and optical switching capability in a single transport
platform. The SPO 1400 enables lowest total cost of ownership (TCO) for both network transfor-
mation and new network builds.
Service Providers are facing
urgent transport problems that
require being able to offer new
services quickly to grow revenue
while reducing overall cost.
They’re deciding what to do about
expanding traffic demands that
require large amounts of packet
capability.
Ericsson SPO 1400 is a family of
compact, energy-efficient Packet
Optical Transport Platforms (POTP).
SPO 1400 is multi-function (TDM,
DWDM, OTN and Packet), which
means CAPEX is only spent where
it is needed. SPO 1400 is the most
power efficient POTP, which means
OPEX savings throughout its
service life. SPO 1400 is ideal for
SDH modernization to DWDM and
packet by combining low-order (E1)
switching and high capacity packet
and DWDM.
With SPO 1400, service providers
not only pay as they grow. They
pay as they need and are never
required to spend on capabilities
that do not directly generate
service revenue.

Multi Service Converged Networks
Service Providers are facing urgent
transport problems that require
being able to offer new services
quickly to grow revenue while
reducing overall cost within their
network. They’re also deciding
what to do about expanding
traffic demands that require large
amounts of packet capability.
The ability to offer a full range
of services without preplanned
partitioning of network resources
dramatically reduces planning
overhead traditionally associated
with multi–service networks.
With the SPO 1400 in a converged
metro transport network, the cost
of service delivery and time-to-
revenue are reduced. This has
direct impact on a service provider’s
cash flow by increasing profit (new
revenue and lower cost) and by
realizing top line revenue sooner.
The unified packet/OTN switch
fabric ensures full utilization of the
SPO 1400 aggregation capacity
regardless of traffic mix. This
removes a major risk to operator
profit given the rapidly changing
end customer demands.
The SPO 1400 supports all features
required for mobile backhaul such
as packet transport and aggregation,
1588v2 and SyncE as well as
support for E1 ports and ATM.
High Capacity Metro Networks
Premium business services and
LTE mobile networks coupled with
reduced contention ratios
in acess networks is creating
unprecedented demand for metro
connectivity.
The powerful aggregation
capabilities of the
SPO 1400 ensure efficient use of
transport capacity. The advanced
photonics allow flexible node
bypass and direct routing of high
capacity, low latency services.
Router Port Conservation
Rapidly growing packet traffic is
consuming router ports quickly
and is driving deployment of large,
expensive core routers. Operators
can reduce the number of router
ports in use and increase router
performance by exploiting the
SPO 1400 packet transport and
aggregation functions.
Packet aggregation
The SPO 1400 enables statistical
gain and traffic separation in the
metro network to facilitate router
interconnectivity with highly utilized
and high bandwidth Ethernet
interfaces. This results in significant
network cost reductions.
OTN connectivity
Optical Transport Networks (OTN)
can be used to create virtual
meshes to offload transit traffic
from expensive routers and onto
lower cost transport equipment.
The SPO 1400 provides a OTN
switching down to ODU-0 level.

Key Features and Benefits of the Ericsson SPO 1400 Family

•Hybrid Packet / OTN switching Fabric – Does not lock operators into a single technology, avoiding the risk of
stranded network resources

•Integrated WDM functionality – avoids the need for unnecessary optical interfaces between aggregation
and transport equipment

•Full range of WDM options ranging from passive to fully dynamic high performance coherent DWDM –
Ensures operators have cost effective WDM solutions for all network applications

•Class leading port density – Reduces floor space cost

•Class leading power efficiency – Reduces power and cooling cost

•MEF Service Support E-Line, E-LAN and E-TREE – Enables access to new service revenues

•MPLS-TP-based L2VPNs and Circuit Emulation (CES) – Enables the delivery of advanced packet services

•Full OTN switching at ODU-0 granularity – Enables delivery of high value, low latency premium services as
well as wholesale services

•100G interfaces featuring coherent technology ensure SPO 1400 is ready to meet the future
capacity requirements.

•Common network management for OPEX efficiency

WDM Networks
The SPO 1400 uses Photonic
Attachment Units (PAU) as
extension shelves to deliver
ROADM and WDM amplification
capabilities. It is managed as a
single Network Element with a
host SPO 1400 without sacrificing
backplane capacity.
Each PAU module houses all
the key ROADM building blocks
including Wavelength Selective
Switch (WSS), Optical Channel
Monitoring (OCM), Optical
Supervisory Channel (OSC) and
amplification.
The PAU supports ROADM
capabilities ranging from
2-Way/48l, 4-Way/96l to a
9-Way/96l Flexgrid ROADM.
Furthermore, with directionless/
colorless support and both OLA
and OLT capabilities the SPO 1400
becomes a fully capable DWDM
system.
SDH/PDH Migration
Many operators have to maintain
expensive legacy infrastructure to
support traditional PDH and SDH
services. The SPO 1400 provides a
practical migration path to free up
this legacy infrastructure so it can
be actively decommissioned.
SPO 1400 features a native
60Gbps capacity LO-SDH switch
allowing any new PDH/SDH
services to be accommodated with
all the protection and monitoring
functions to meet existing SLA
requirements.
Innovative Packet Transport
The SPO 1400 family features a
scalable packet switch design
enabling transport of connection
oriented services with SDH
performance levels.
Ethernet Services
SPO 1400 Ethernet services are
based on the latest IEEE standards
supporting E-Line, E-LAN and
E-Tree (MEF 9 and 14 certified).
Virtual private networking (VPWS
and VPLS) is enabled by
MPLS-TP.
Mobile backhaul
SPO 1400 family ensures
economical backhaul solutions
using TDM and Packet capabilities
with options for Circuit Emulation
Services (CES) and Ethernet
interfaces (MEF 9 and 14 certified).
The Ericsson SPO 1400 Packet
Optical Transport Platform:
• Optimizes network costs to
service needs with unmatched
flexibility
• Saves operations expenditure
with best-in-class power and
packet density
• Eases transition from SDH
to packet and OTN/DWDM by
providing low order switching and
interfaces
These key advantages define the
SPO 1400 as the benchmark POTP
in the industry. The SPO 1400
POTP quickens time to revenue
while optimizing overall cost.
SPO 1400 is perfectly
suited to a wide range of
applications ranging from
customer sites, Radio Access
Network (RAN) aggregation,
fixed mobile convergence
and WDM transport.
