Enablence Technologies has introduced a GPON optical line terminal (OLT) service interface module to support IPTV services.
The LI-OLT8 interface module, a card for the company’s BroadAccess Multi-Service Access Platform (MSAP), supports up to 4,608 subscribers.
The card supports broadband services over optical fiber using GPON technology, including a full 2.5 Gbps capacity in each of the eight OLT ports.
With the LI-OLT8, Enablence’s MSAP now supports service provider technologies ranging from plain old telephone service (POTS) to various versions of DSL to Gigabit Ethernet, giving service providers a wide choice of migration strategies as they transform their legacy networks.
When coupled with the Enablence G4000-Series ONTs, the LI-OLT8 GPON module allows service providers to provide high-bandwidth and secure services, scaling from single residential buildings to multiple-dwelling units and small- and medium-size businesses.
Mike Skubisz, president of Enablence’s Systems Division, said, “The introduction of this new GPON OLT module for BroadAccess provides our current and future customers a robust migration path to FTTx.”
He added, “Unlike many other MSAPs in the market that are optimized for either copper or fiber, the BroadAccess excels at both.”
Other features included in the new LI-OLT8 GPON module include: high density and capacity, with 8 GPON OLT ports, up to 64 ONTs/ONUs per OLT port and 512 ONTs/ONUs per card; standards compliance with ITU-T G.984; line rate of 2.5 Gbps downstream and 1.25 Gbps upstream; built-in encapsulation, QoS and security, including 4k port-ID per port, flexible port-ID mapping, dynamic and static T-CONT, upstream/downstream prioritization, and AES encryption; based on ITU G.984 family of standards; provides a full 2.488 Gbps downstream and 1.244 Gbps upstream; supports 1550 nm video overlay and/or IPTV; and hardened for remote terminal applications.
