IBM Smarter Healthcare NetworksA better medical network for less

May 2015



IBM Smarter Healthcare Networks Executive Summary

Our solution costs 30% less than legacy copper based switched networks

Our solution allows you to reclaim legacy wiring closet space for critical care and beds, increasing your revenues

Our solution converges multiples separate networks onto a single fiber optic infrastructure saving you space and making moves and changes far easier (e.g. reduced HEPA tenting)

Our solution provides military-grade security and encryption that protects patient data and improves HIPPA compliance.

Our solution is simpler to operate and manage than legacy switched networks

Our solution is based on carrier-grade technology which is more reliable than legacy switched networks



The IBM Smarter Healthcare Network provides substantial TCO advantages over legacy switch-based network architectures.

IBM recently performed a TCO analysis for a 12 story building where a converged fiber optic infrastructure was compared to a legacy copper based switched network

The year 1 CapEx savings achieved with the IBM Smarter Network were close to $1,000,000.00



Legacy healthcare networks are no longer an efficient or cost-effective operating model.

Legacy healthcare network designs rely on multiple separate networks to deliver services

Legacy healthcare networks rely heavily on copper and coax cabling, requiring frequent rip and replace upgrades as technologies change

Legacy networks take up substantial space for wiring closets due to the distance limitations of copper cabling

Legacy networks require substantial power and cooling in the wiring closets for stacks of network electronics



IBM has developed the IBM Smarter Healthcare Network which costs one third less than a legacy switched network architecture.

Our solution uses a single fiber-based Passive Optical Network for all services (LAN, Cellular, Wi-Fi)

Our solution uses far less cabling saving you install time, materials cost, and space

Our solution uses far fewer wiring closets than a legacy switch-based design allowing you to reclaim space for beds and critical care

Our solution requires far less power and cooling than legacy switched network designs

Our solution reduces HEPA tenting requirements; 1 piece of fiber replaces 4 copper cables



The IBM Smarter Healthcare Network can be easily extended to cover regional offices from a centralized location.



An IBM Smarter Healthcare Network allows you to reclaim legacy wiring closets for critical care and additional beds.

Legacy switched networks require dedicated wiring closets with proper power and environmental controls

The IBM Smarter Healthcare Network requires far less space, power, and cooling saving you money and allowing you to reclaim space for critical care and additional beds which generate revenue

The IBM Smarter Healthcare Network is a much simpler design which is far easier to manage than a legacy switched network

Passive Optical LAN technology also requires dramatically less cabling saving you money on material and installation costs.

Legacy copper based network architectures require far more cabling due to the distance limitations of copper cabling

In an IBM Smarter Healthcare Network the cabling is primarily fiber based which requires far less space than legacy switched based designs which rely heavily on copper cabling

This 36” cable tray was installed for a legacy copper design. Only 10” of the tray was used after the client decided to switch to the IBM Smarter Network instead of the originally planned legacy copper based design.

4 Port Gigabit Desk Mount 2 Port Gigabit Wall Mount 8 Port Gigabit Desk Mount

24 Port Gigabit Rack Mount



Passive Optical LAN equipment can be located in the ceiling or floor giving you space back for beds and critical care.

Eliminate traditional wiring closets with passive splitters that require no power or cooling

Zoned architecture greatly reduces any cabling adds or changes

Plug-and-play pre-terminated fiber assemblies reduce installation times and HEPA tenting

Reclaim valuable space as legacy wiring closets are no longer required



The IBM Smarter Healthcare Network includes a fiber optic Distributed Antenna System for 5 bar in building cellular coverage.

An internal Distributed Antenna System (DAS) allows you to provide 5 bar cellular coverage inside your building

The IBM Smarter Healthcare Network optionally includes a fiber-based DAS which allows for easy upgrades as required

– When a wireless carrier introduces a new frequency, simply swap out a card in the remote access units

Advanced features such as capacity steering allow you to shift cellular capacity to different areas of your building as employees move around…Smarter!
