High Leverage Network™
An Alcatel-Lucent High Leverage Network™ (HLN) allows you to extract more value from your network, harness Application Enablement and turn challenges into growth opportunities for long term business success.
Network Evolution supports scalable network capacity and embedded network intelligence so you can manage bandwidth and leverage your network to deliver differentiated services—increasing return on investment (ROI) and reducing total cost of ownership ( TCO).
Operational Transformation unifies network and service provider IT systems, enables IP migration and transforms your network operations to reduce costs—enabling differentiated services and a streamlined service delivery model to transform your customers’ experience.
Application Enablement leverages your network capabilities and network assets to enable new application revenue streams and innovative new business models—increasing profits by delivering high value services and applications to your customers.
Universal Access extends the reach of fixed broadband and wireless broadband for all, allowing you to access more customers, anywhere and on any device—whether it’s mobile broadband or next generation access for the most densely populated areas or rural broadband for the most remote.
As new opportunities emerge — such as Wireless All Around, open access for all, the Internet of Things, Cloud and the Application and Content Value Chain— a High Leverage Network becomes the foundation for creating more value from new ideas and services faster than ever before. Find out more.
A High Leverage Network enables IP migration to a converged, all IP network. An HLN reduces the cost per bit for transporting rapidly growing video and mobile internet traffic and enables new revenue-generating services to increase ROI with a more energy efficient network.

Network Evolution to a converged all IP network provides scalable bandwidth across access, aggregation, backhaul and backbone, enabling you to manage bandwidth and network capacity more efficiently. Embedded network intelligence and a converged IP service edge enable you to deliver differentiated services—such as video content delivery to mobile devices—that grow revenue and increase profitability. And intelligent traffic management optimizes converged services—such as multimedia to multiple screens—to help reduce costs.
Operational Transformation helps you transform and simplify your network by providing a full range of IP transformation services. It enables IP migration—such as mobile network evolution to all IP wireless. It also integrates network and service provider IT systems to help deliver converged services more efficiently. Integrated network management, network policy control and network traffic monitoring work closely with OSS/BSS to streamline your service delivery model and transform your customers’ experience.
Application Enablement allows you to deliver new applications and services with agility. You can use your network capabilities and network assets to extract more value from your network. By exposing network capabilities and assets in a managed and controlled way, you can offer your own enhanced services and partner with 3 rd party content and application providers to develop new business models. You can grow application revenue and provide innovative video content delivery to enhance your customers’ quality of experience.
Universal Access enables you to access more customers, anywhere and on any device using the latest innovations in fixed broadband and wireless broadband to deliver next generation access. You can extract more value from your copper assets and use fiber to dramatically increase network capacity to enable open access networks. All IP wireless provides your customers with a Wireless All Around broadband experience, while green access technologies that use less power and space give you a more energy efficient network.
