Broadband Stimulus Initiative: Broadband Solutions for Service Providers
Broadband Solutions Page 1
Executive SummaryThe American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), otherwise known as the Economic Stimulus Act, was introduced in February 2009. By including broadband stimulus packages, this Act creates a unique opportunity to expand broadband services into rural communities that would otherwise be unserved. This also means hundreds of thousands of new jobs on the horizon. With this shift comes the need for service providers to take another look at the competition, application processes, network build-out, and design. Cisco understands this and is prepared to offer its customers the total support package: next-generation broadband solutions, complete network and services support, financing and grant appli-cation assistance, cross-industry knowledge, and proven relationships with partners in public and private entities. Cisco is positioned to take you where you need to be today.
Broadband Stimulus OverviewIn this economic climate, job creation and retention are hot topics. According to the 2007 study “The Effects of Broadband Deployment on Output and Employment: A Cross-Sectional Analysis of U.S. Data,”* there is a strong correlation between broadband growth and the number of new jobs available. It estimates that a 1 percent increase in broadband pene-tration could create 293,000 more jobs – and the benefits of broadband do not stop there.
Just last month, The Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF) published “The Need for Speed: The Importance of Next-Generation Broadband.”** It confirms that deploying next-generation broadband to 80 percent of U.S. households would create approximately two million new or retained direct and indirect jobs.

Figure 1. Job Growth
What Does ARRA Mean to Me?The ARRA is a US$787 billion package aimed at creating jobs and increasing economic efficiencies by spurring technological advances in science and health. Of this amount, $7.2 billion is targeted for broadband loans, loan guarantees, and grants. $4.7 billion of this is to be administered by the National Telecommunications and Information Association (NTIA), and the remaining $2.5 billion is to be administered by the Rural Utility Service (RUS).
Here’s a breakdown:
NTIA was awarded $4.7 billion to fund the Broadband Technology Opportunities Program (BTOP), of which over $3.7 billion is specifically allocated for broadband grants. The pro-gram focuses on improving broadband access in unserved and underserved areas.
In awarding any grant, NTIA must do the following, to the extent practical (Table 1):
Table 1. Priority Considerations for NTIA
Priority Considerations
Determine the grant will increase affordability, subscribership, or service to the greatest population of users in the area.
Determine the grant will provide the greatest broadband speed possible to the greatest population of users in the area.
Ensure funding will be used to stimulate the demand for broadband, while improving access and use of broadband by public safety agencies.
Ensure all grants are made before September 30, 2010, and will be finished within two years of the award.
Ensure the federal share of any project does not exceed 80% unless applicant specifi-cally petitions the NTIA for a waiver demonstrating financial hardship.
RUS received $2.5 billion targeted for distance learning, telemedicine, and broadband. This is to be used for grants, loans, and loan guarantees; and 75 percent of the funding must target rural communities that are without sufficient broadband and qualify for economic development.

Grant SupportUnderstanding the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) can be a bit over-whelming and often requires a solid understanding of the funding landscape. Even the most experienced organization can benefit from getting help in deciphering the loan and grant programs. Cisco has partnered with a premier grant expert to provide a range of services that can help our selected customers in every aspect of the grant process. This includes grant identification and updates, one-on-one consultation sessions, ongoing help desk support, and customized grant overviews.
If you have been qualified to receive Grants Office support, Cisco will sponsor a one-on-one consultative session with Grants Office, LLC. Grants Office is a Rochester, NY-based company with over 14 years of experience in all facets of grant seeking and proposal development. The consultation will provide you with access to a grants professional with expertise in the ARRA broadband funding opportunities.
This consultative session will assist you in identifying and understanding the key compo-nents to the funding opportunities, and help you determine:
• How well your project fits the guidelines of the ARRA programs
• What aspects of your project should be highlighted in your proposal
• Any shortcomings of your project and how you can overcome them
• Necessary steps to take prior to submission
• Answers to any questions you have
Following the session, Grants Office will 1) provide you with a “Project Assessment and Next Steps Report” to recap and summarize the discoveries from the consul-tative session and 2) provide a list of steps to be com-pleted for a successful proposal.
Service Provider Opportunity for Growth These broadband stimulus programs represent an unprecedented opportunity to improve the economic vitality of unserved and underserved communities throughout the United States. This program will offer incentives to create and implement next-generation broadband networks. As a result, this work will undoubt-edly serve as a foundation for future applications and ser-vices that will increase quality of life and boost economic growth for years to come.

For service providers, this represents a unique time to fund out-of-market expansion into adjacent communities while increasing customer base and revenue streams. With that opportunity comes a set of challenges for service providers, and Cisco is ready and prepared to help you meet them.
Designing and deploying broadband network expansion projects, in the time frames required by the NTIA and RUS, can pose challenges for service providers who may lack technical resources. All applicants may need to be flexible and consider alternative business models and partnerships with other institutions. Though this may create another level of complexity, it may also ensure that the application best addresses NTIA and RUS priorities, and has the greatest chance for commercial success.
It’s important to note that the application process and selection criteria are still being defined. Even so, service providers who offer the greatest broadband capability to the most people, and are savvy in the application process – while still adhering to NTIA and RUS principles – will have the greatest chance of their success in the application process.
For the 2.5-GHz EBS spectrum holders, the FCC defines “substantial service” as that which is “sound, favorable, and substantially above a mediocre level which may minimally warrant renewal.” If substantial service standards are not met by May of 2011, the FCC can take back any and all frequencies not meeting the requirements. Given the current economic conditions, industry consolidation, and looming build-out deadlines, this is certainly a disadvantage and must be addressed.
Lastly, projects that are matched by a higher percentage of private funds will be more favorably considered.
Success with CiscoService providers have a myriad of choices when considering broadband partnerships for stimulus-targeted broadband projects. Choosing the right partner is extremely critical to ensuring commercial success and future viability of your project. Key considerations need to include: financial stability and grant application support, breadth of broadband offerings, deep industry knowledge, and experience with greenfield and brownfield deployments, particularly in rural markets.
Cisco offers comprehensive support for its next-generation broadband solutions – from application support, deal structuring, and financing, to network design, implementation, and support services.

Cisco Solution OverviewSolution ArchitecturesCisco’s solutions help enable service providers to build offerings across multiple service types. The basis of all of these solutions is the IP Next-Generation Network (IP NGN). The flexible, modular architecture of the IP NGN helps enable providers to lower operating costs while increasing the speed of service deployment.
Figure 2. The IP NGN
Cisco’s leadership in IP routing, switching, and optical is the basis of the IP NGN. Our suite of IP products, including the Cisco CRS-1 Carrier Routing System; Cisco 7600, ASR 9000, and ASR 1000 Series routers; and the Cisco ONS 15454 multiservice platforms, helps enable operators to move IP traffic across their networks at gigabit speeds while differen-tiating traffic types and maintaining a high quality of service. The solutions most relevant to the broadband stimulus initiative are:
• Fiber to the home (FTTH) and broadband aggregation
• Cable architectures
• Broadband wireless
FTTH and Broadband Aggregation ArchitecturesCisco helps provide first-mile Ethernet access in FTTH deployments with the Cisco ME 3400 and ME 4500 Series Carrier Ethernet switches. Cisco also enables scalable, cost-effective aggregation and transport within a service provider’s market with its Cisco 7600 Series and Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM platforms.

To reach subscribers with other access technologies such as ADSL2+, VDSL, or PON, the Cisco ME 3400 and ME 4500 Series platforms provide cost-effective Ethernet aggrega-tion in remote locations. These platforms give carriers the ability to build carrier-class, geographically dispersed Layer 2 access domains using Resilient Ethernet Protocol (REP) technology.
Figure 3. FTTH Access and Aggregation Network
As there is a need to further aggregate subscriber traffic, service providers can take advantage of the feature-rich capabilities of the Cisco 7600 Series platform to build an industry-standard Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) core transport infrastructure. This helps the service provider to collect the access network traffic and aggregate it onto a common network. This network can support today’s mixture of voice, video, and high-speed data services with the ability to scale to whatever tomorrow brings.
Cable ArchitecturesCisco offers an industry-leading approach to cable system design with a single, converged network architecture that combines integrated video, voice, and Internet service (Figure 4). This enables cable operators to offer tiered packages of services to their business and residential subscribers. With a single converged network, operators can more rapidly deploy new advanced services while reducing operating costs.

The following elements of this cable architecture are pertinent to the broadband stimulus initiative:
• Hybrid fiber-coaxial (HFC) access network and FTTH solutions: Cisco’s HFC network solution portfolio includes every piece from the headend to the home or business: complete optical transmission platforms, nodes, and Radio Frequency (RF) components. Additionally, Cisco’s DOCSIS® passive optical network (DPON) solution allows for a smooth transition from HFC to FTTH, enabling cable providers to prepare their networks for the future without costly back-office expenses.
Figure 5. Migration from HFC Access Network to DPON FTTH
• The cable modem termination system (CMTS) broadband solution: Cisco continues to lead in the cable space with the introduction of DOCSIS 3.0 channel bonding tech- nology. Channel bonding enables cable providers to continue to offer higher and higher broadband data rates to their customers over the existing HFC plant. This technology allows providers to protect their investment in their current HFC plant while continuing to support traditional cable modems in conjunction with higher-rate DOCSIS 3.0 modems.
