PONλ Express™ 16

Universal Transport Platform for Access Networks

The PONλ (Passive Optical Network over wavelengths) Express 16 is the first transport platform to use a Passive Optical Network (PON) architecture to break the access bottleneck. Using Dense Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM), the PONλ Express 16 provides cost-effective access to business parks, campuses, and multi-dwelling unit/multi-tenant units over a shared network infrastructure without sacrificing security or limiting bandwidth. Up to 16 customers can be simultaneously connected with each having up to 1Gbps dedicated, symmetrical bandwidth. Operationally, each Optical Network Terminal (ONT) is “colorless” which eliminates the sparing issue that plagues traditional DWDM systems and provides “plug-n-play” system provisioning. The PONλ Express 16 is integrated into other ADC products such as the OmniReach® FTTX Fiber Distribution Hub FDH3000S providing a compelling solution unique to the industry.

Spec Sheet

Features:

•Supports point-to-point and point-to- multipoint architectures

•Delivers up to 1Gbps of dedicated, symmetrical bandwidth per suscriber

•Uses a single fiber for up and downstream traffic

•Provides “colorless” optics on the ONTs/ ONUs as well as the OLT line cards

•Supports SNMP and TL1 for management

•Provides multiple deployment options to fit every environment:

-Strand mount or underground option

-Rack mount option

-Modular option for existing splitter cabinet

•Uses modular architecture for simple and quick service and bit rate upgrades

•Allows complete or partial redundancy through the network

Benefits:

•Enables multiple services and bit rates to exist simultaneously without complex traffic management

•Allows for service and bit rate upgrades without infrastructure changes

•Reduces inventory costs by using “colorless” ONTs/ONUs and OLT line cards (OCUs)

•Recovers fiber assets in older deployments and reduces fiber count for new deployments

•Supports transparent SLAs

•Plug-n-play simplicity reduces time to market and eliminates wavelength management issues

•Allows 1310nm overlay using ADC‘s DWDM VAM module to support legacy networks

•Provides more security and privacy due to dedicated wavelengths
