3.- LTE Trials Pick up Speed, Says ABI
2011 will be the year when LTE goes live in a big way, as Verizon in the United States
and DoCoMo in Japan will begin wide-scale roll-outs by the end of 2010, according to
ABI in its report “Wireless Spectrum, Services and Technology Deployment Market
Data.” ABI Research analyst Bhavya Khanna wrote, “132 networks have reported trials
2. fam’s teleco news (4ªEd.) 2/6
or plans to launch LTE commercially, 32 more than the end of 2009. Verizon has also
hinted at the availability of LTE-based handsets by May 2009.”
“However, don’t expect WiMAX to bow out just yet. Despite setbacks including Russia’s
Yota switching to LTE, 188 WiMAX networks are now in trial or commercial operation
worldwide. With India’s wireless broadband spectrum auction recently concluded,
expect that number to grow in 2011. Clearwire, a WiMAX service provider in the United
States, continues to build out its network and add subscribers, buoyed by the launch of
a popular WiMAX-capable handset, the HTC EVO 4G.”
The threat that WiMAX will face will come from TD-LTE, an alternative technology
championed by China and Qualcomm that can operate on the same bandwidth as
existing WiMAX networks. If this technology proves successful, it could see several
WiMAX operators migrate to the LTE standard.
While this battle plays out, incumbent operators cannot afford to ignore their legacy 3G
networks. Technology upgrades such as HSPA+ for WCDMA networks are also proving
popular, helping incumbents cope with demands for increasing speeds and bandwidth
efficiency. As of March 2010, over 41 network operators had trials or commercial
launches of HSPA+ networks, including T-Mobile in the United States and Vodafone in
Turkey.
4.- Low-cost networked storage option: ATA over Ethernet (AoE)
Networked storage started (generally, at least in the open systems world) with Fibre
Channel SANs and Ethernet NAS, and it was good. Like Coke and Pepsi we had a
couple of easily recognizable alternatives for the common requirement of consolidating
storage on a network. The marketing of these networked storage technologies kind of
devolved into a “tastes great; less filling” argument, but that’s to be expected. Then
iSCSI came out, promising to provide block storage without the complexity (or cost) of
Fibre Channel. As Ethernet performance improved, the Fibre Channel folks figured, if
you can’t beat them, join them, and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and Fibre
Channel over IP (FCIP) came out as ways to extend Fibre Channel over Ethernet, using
the IP protocol. Now there’s another option, one that’s going in the other direction,
providing simple storage networking using Ethernet cabling but not the IP protocol. It’s
called ATA over Ethernet (AoE), and it’s worth a look.
ATA, or Advanced Technology Attachment, is the system PC motherboards use to
communicate with hard drives. It eliminated the disk controller card, putting its function
into the hard disk drive’s interface itself with the most common version being Serial
ATA, or SATA. ATA over Ethernet basically replaces the ribbon cable motherboard
connection ATA drives had with an Ethernet cable.
Unlike iSCSI, which encapsulates SCSI commands into IP packets and routes them
over a LAN or the Internet, ATA over Ethernet doesn’t use IP addresses or IP packets
but instead uses MAC addresses to identify the target device. It also uses the lighter
ATA protocol instead of SCSI. AoE packets do pass through an Ethernet switch but at a
“layer” below the IP protocol, so they’re not routable. It’s essentially a direct connection
between a server and a disk drive, just like it was when the drive was physically inside
the server.
AoE provides a very inexpensive technology for creating networked storage. It’s open
source, but vendors do support it in storage arrays. For VARs, it can be a low-cost
3. fam’s teleco news (4ªEd.) 3/6
alternative to iSCSI or just another point of interest to generate appointments. ATA over
Ethernet may be that disruptive solution you need to get into an account that’s buying
storage from another VAR

8.- Motorola demanda a Huawei por robo de secretos comerciales
El fabricante estadounidense de teléfonos móviles Motorola ha demandado a la empresa china
Huawei Technologies [HWT.UL] por supuesto robo de secretos comerciales, lo que viene a
subrayar las dificultades de la firma asiática de rápido crecimiento para despojarse de la
reputación de piratería del país.
5. fam’s teleco news (4ªEd.) 5/6
En un primer proceso judicial, presentado en 2008, Motorola denunció a cinco de sus ex
empleados por haber compartido supuestamente secretos comerciales de la compañía con
Lemko - que también se menciona en la demanda y que tiene un acuerdo de distribución con
Huawei. En la demanda, presentada el 16 de julio en un tribunal federal de Chicago, Motorola
afirmó que un ingeniero había compartido información sobre un módem y otras tecnologías de
Motorola con un fundador de Huawei, Ren Zhengfei, un antiguo oficial del Ejército Popular de
Liberación chino.
Motorola explicó que una cadena de correos electrónicos titulada "Motorola Confidential
Proprietary" (Propiedad confidencial de Motorola) había demostrado que "Huawei y sus
empleados sabían que estaban recibiendo información confidencial robada a Motorola, sin su
consentimiento ni autorización", según la demanda judicial
Los casos como este son difíciles de probar, dijo Connie Carnabuci, experta en propiedad
intelectual y tecnológica y socia de Freshfields en Hong Kong.
"Los casos relacionados con la apropiación indebida de información confidencial son
normalmente muy difíciles de demostrar", dijo Carnabuci.
Motorola, con base en Illinois (EEUU), ha acusado a Huawei de otras infracciones, como
amenazas, quebrantamiento de la obligación fiduciaria y usurpación de oportunidad corporativa.
