Agenda
Session Abstract• Come and learn how Erickson Living achieved deployment success using Cisco ME4600 GPON
Solution. Guest Presenter: Jay Romero, Sr.Director - IT Operations.
• Passive Optical Networks (PON) provides an effective and efficient way of providing fiber based high speed access to residential and business users. With the ever-growing demand for higher bandwidth, service providers are looking for fiber solutions that are cost-effective and easy to deploy and manage.
• This session will provide an insight into PON technology, with a focus on Gigabit-Capable PON. Attendees will learn basic design principles and applicable use cases for architecting a GPON Network using the Cisco ME4600 OLT and ONT/ONU.
• The presentation will outline the requirements to configure and verify an end-to-end service over ME4600 OLT. Redundancy mechanisms, such as Type B protection, in a GPON based environment will also be covered.
• Attendees will walk away from this session with a firm understanding of the GPON technology, a clear view of applicability of GPON vs point-to-point ethernet for various scenarios and reference designs for an effective, fast and reliable GPON network using Cisco ME4600 series of OLT and ONT products.
PON Technology Fundamentals
Evolution of Ethernet-based FTTH solutions
• Higher speeds
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet technology (10GBase-BX) has moved to access in some cases
• Longer reach
• Disctances of 10km and higher with mass-market BX-optics
• Extended reach modules available at low premium makes up to 70km possible without reach extender – coverage of rural areas, or for CO consolidation
• Higher packaging densities
• Compact-SFP (two independent transceivers in one SFP package) - first step in multi-channel optics
• significant increase in number of subscriber terminations per rack – smaller footprint
• easier fiber management – from single-fiber to multi-fiber patch cable
• reduction in power consumption Passive Optical Network – PON is
tailor made for these requirements

Downstream Redundancy – GPON Type B+ Protection
• Allows for GPON protection between CO and splitter, Doubles the Number of GPON port used
• Active Standby Configuration – Only 1 port is transmitting at the time
• For best results, GPON ports must be on different Line cards
• Protects against port and card failures

Guest Speaker: Jay RomeroSr. Director, Erickson Living
About Erickson Living
• For 30 years, Erickson Living has been committed to our nation’s seniors
• Today our business is comprised of 18 communities in 10 states
• Our focus is on senior living and a broad array of health care services
• We currently have 23,000 residents who call Erickson Living home
• Across our campuses we have more than 13,000 staff members who are dedicated to helping people live better lives
• We manage more than 30,000,000 sq. ft. of residential and community building space
Erickson Living Service Offerings
• Erickson provides:
• Integrated Senior Health and Wellness
• Medical center with full time geriatric physicians
• Assisted Living, Skilled Nursing, Memory Care, Ancillary Health Services
• Social workers
• General Services (facilities, grounds, transportation, housekeeping)
• Resident Life (pool, fitness center, countless clubs and activities)
• Dining (options to please any palate)
• Resident computer services
• Salon, Pharmacy, General Store
Erickson Challenges
• Increasing need for quality networking and IT services for staff and residents
• The need for ubiquitous wireless connectivity throughout the campus to mobilize our staff and residents
• Ability to add additional services more timely and cost effectively to continue to improve the resident experience
Current Landscape
• Wireless Internet• Limited access available – provided in common areas and skilled nursing facility only
• The residents and staff have been asking for wireless for years
• New residents are seeing other facilities that already provide this service
• Adult children are coming to expect these services
• Phone Services• New resident satisfaction is low in regard to phone service
• Transferring phone numbers between Independent Living and Continuing Care facility is challenging
• Cellular service is inconsistent
• Complicated Infrastructure • Multiple wired installations are cumbersome and some are over 20 years old
• Multiple systems with different technology requirements are hard to manage
Erickson Vision and Goals
• Provide a holistic experience that connects Residents to each other, their communities, their families and to a set of services that enrich their lives
• Lay the foundation for connectivity for the Internet of Things
• Create competitive advantage by advancing the Digital Resident Strategy
Solution: Erickson Connect
• How is it different than what we already have?• Today each system has its own ‘road’, meaning that for everything we put in place we need
to run cabling to support it.
• With Connect, we will have one ‘highway’ that will enable all of our current and future services.
