Ciena’s Universal Aggregation and Access over 10G Passive Optical Network (PON) transceivers bring more value to the aggregation network edge—driving next-generation business services, cable MSO access, 4G/5G RAN, and low-cost metro access.
The Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP+) symmetrical 10 Gb/s OLT module works with Ciena’s extensive Routing and Switching platforms to address key 10G XGS-PON (X=10, G-Gigabit, and S=Symmetrical) market opportunities related to fiber deep, 4G/5G xHaul, and business services to maximize ROI. The simple pluggable solution reduces edge transport, routing and switching costs, footprint, and power consumption by right sizing the high-density OLT platforms.
Driving the industry toward 10G PON service delivery
Most network operators’ environments are very challenging, as they experience surging IP traffic growth in both their wireless and wireline networks. Complicating this enormous growth is that most of the traffic is IP-based—a trend that has been made even more problematic in recent years by flat to declining revenues and associated margins and it is expected to continue well into the future.
For the past 15 years, PONs have become extremely popular due to surges in IP television (IPTV) and high-speed internet access. However, bandwidth demands and competition are driving network operators to 10G PON, as 15-year-old asymmetrical Ethernet PON (EPON) and Gigabit PON (GPON) technologies are running out of steam and cannot keep up with network growth at least by a factor of 10 in the next decade.
The network edge is where content lives and, to operators, where successful business outcomes are determined. For network operators, improving the ability to offer new service revenue opportunities and improve margins is essential to maintaining existing customers as well as attracting new ones.
