For more than one hundred years, Thunder Bay Telephone (TBayTel) has relentlessly pursued excellence in technology and service throughout the Thunder Bay region — from high quality, reliable and affordable local telephone service, to continuous cellular coverage across Northwestern Ontario, to fast, affordable and reliable high-speed Internet TBayTel, a high-tech leader, is a major economic engine for the area as well as a leading corporate citizen — and

a community telephone company ready for the next 100 years

Canada’s largest independent telephone company, TBayTel is adopting new technologies at a dizzying speed and is leading the way in rolling out Ethernet services to its business customers

THE PROBLEM

Ontario Hydro Energy asked TBayTel to provide Ethernet service to

a remote location approximately 30 miles away TBayTel currently served multiple DS1s over fiber using legacy FMT-6 equipment that provided up to 6 DS1s over a fiber As Ontario Hydro’s bandwidth needs increased, TBayTel was faced with the problem of burning additional fibers and adding hard-to-find legacy equipment to address the customer’s requirements A new solution was needed

because the current deployment didn’t provide a

cost-effective use of the fiber, and with multiple

FMT-6s, the operational complexity would

increase Another challenge was the lack of any

fiber facilities between the drop point on One

Island and the customer’s network In fact, the

only connection between the two sites was a

microwave radio link As a result, it was

impossible to provide Ontario Hydro Energy with

a direct Ethernet connection

THE ADC SOLUTION

TBayTel turned to ADC for a solution And ADC’s

LoopStar™800 next-generation SONET access

system was deployed to provide low cost

Ethernet service that connected the rural

locations TBayTel installed an OC-3

point-to-point configuration between One Island and

Lappe in Ontario using the LoopStar 800

platform to deliver a DS3 to Ontario Hydro After

transporting the DS3 via the microwave radio,

media converters were used to convert the DS3s

to Ethernet With the remaining capacity, TBayTel

realized the same platform could support other

services, so the company purchased additional

service delivery cards to extend the reach of DSL

services and provide greater bandwidth to

existing customers With the LoopStar 800,

TBayTel can easily add new services or new

customers within the same platform to generate

additional revenues while minimizing further

capital expenditures

BENEFITS REALIZED BY THE CUSTOMER

“The ADC solution is highly scalable and offers robust multi-service capabilities that allowed us to save eight fiber strands, double our capacity to these serving areas and recover hard-to-find equipment that can be used in other applications,” said George Armstrong, Network Engineering and Operations at TBayTel “All of these represent significant cost savings to our company ADC also provided first-class service and support from product configuration and staging to speed of equipment delivery.”

Featuring advanced management capabilities and

a web-based local craft terminal (LCT), the LoopStar 800 enabled TBayTel to avoid the operational complexity of managing multiple systems and the installation of an expensive element management system that requires a dedicated server Designed for both central office and customer premises environments, the system offers a compact, modular design and low power consumption that significantly reduce operational costs and simplify deployment

With the LoopStar 800 system, TBayTel can optimize its existing resources to enable customer retention and simultaneously add new revenue-generating services and customers The flexibility and density of the LoopStar 800 makes it easy to increase revenues while minimizing further capital and operational expenditures
