As mobile network operators (MNOs) face increasing pressures from operational costs andsustainability targets, the need for detailed, function-specific energy metering in telecom infrastructure The main findings and recommendations from this report are as follows: FINDINGS: •Transport network equipment is used in many industries – not just telecommunication services.Consequently, standardisation is distributed across several Standards Development Organisations(SDOs). RECOMMENDATIONS: •Further standardisation is needed – in particular in relation to defining data models andkey performance values that enable energy efficiency to be derived at a network device / >Define an integrated KPI framework on the transport network level that enables the determinationof energy consumption and energy efficiency of higher layer functions for link and network wideanalysis. •The industry should consider consolidating and further harmonising standards where possible. Through these measures, the publication aims to guide the industry toward a more sustainable and efficient 02INTRODUCTION 2.1STATE OF THE ART As energy consumption becomes a top-of-mindtopic for MNOs, in terms of operational costsand sustainability, detailed energy consumptionobservability is set to become a standard featureof Telecom equipment. The particulars of functionspecific energy related metering will be defined This new publication analyses the standardslandscape for metering inside of transport equipmentthat is relevant for so-called mobile x-haul, whichincludes front-, mid-, and backhaul use-cases forconnecting Radio Access Network (RAN) equipment Figure 1: Overview of scope of the current publication (“Transport:Front-, Mid-, and Backhaul”) and of the previous GFN Meteringpublications[1](“Site equipment”)and[2](”Virtualised RAN metering of RAN x-haul transport equipmentas a basis for energy efficiency observabilityand management.
