 All IP & hybrid available for all interfaces

 2G/3G transmission sharing & differentiation
 CS/PS differentiation
L3 Switch/Router for BSC/RNC
 Broadcast separation of the BSC/RNC from the transmission network
 Independent port number of the transmission network and the
BSC/RNC enabling independent capacity expansion
 Reuse of existing GE link between the switch and the transmission
network in case of IP Abis after IP Iub
 Easy re-parenting of the BTS/Node B from one BSC/RNC to another
 Adaptable for flat architecture
