Delivering Ultimate Broadband

As advanced, broadband-intensive applications like high definition video continue to emerge, it is clear that broadband capacity requirements will continue to rapidly be redefined. New technologies like VDSL2 can extend the useful life and service capacity of existing copper plant to meet these bandwidth requirements. However, fiber to the premises (FTTP) is rapidly moving from early adopters to mainstream service providers looking to gain service and operational advantages against their competition. In these circumstances, gigabit passive optical networking (GPON) has emerged as the FTTP architecture of choice for residential as well as business service delivery.

With 2.5 Gbps GPON available, service providers are now moving directly to this new, powerful technology. As with any new technology decision, choosing the optimal timing for adopting GPON can be challenging. Calix understands the complex issues involved when introducing new technologies into a network, and has developed comprehensive solutions that allow service providers to introduce and deploy FTTP technology efficiently and cost effectively.
