AT-TN118-A 2 Port EPON Service Module

FTTH Over Any Last Mile

Infrastructure

As broadband deployments continue the gradual but inevitable migration to Fiber To The Home (FTTH), Allied Telesis is well positioned to support any FTTH infrastructure with the introduction of the EPON2 line interface module. This addition complements the existing line of active 100Mbps FTTX products available from Allied Telesis. As customer demand for IP enabled services increases, Service Providers must weigh the benefits of point-to-point versus point-to-multipoint deployments. The Allied Telesis iMAP is the only IP access platform that offers solutions for both scenarios eliminating the uncertainty of which last mile infrastructure to deploy.

Using the same approach to last mile design, the EPON2 service module is made with hardened components offering Service Providers of all kinds the added flexibility of CO or remote deployments. With standards based 1000BASE-PX20 U/D pluggable SFP optics, the EPON2 module provides optical reach of up to 20km using while supporting up to 32 subscribers per PON port. Supporting key features such as QoS, security and IP Video, the EPON2 module is a key component to any IP Triple Play deployment relying on PON last mile infrastructures.

As IPTV services continue to reach out to residential communities, Service Providers using Allied Telesis’ iMAP and EPON2 solution can accommodate the most advanced communications services available today. Supporting 16:1 or 32:1 splits, the EPON2 module can support PON bandwidth up to 1Gbps bidirectional. With powerful QoS traffic management, the AT-TN118 provides minimum bandwidth guarantees and maximum bandwidth limits on a per subscriber, per service basis.

Continuing the IP Convergence over PON

In choosing EPON IEEE 802.3ah standards based technology, Allied Telesis has enabled Service Providers with the ability to offer native IP-based services over either existing or new- build PON infrastructures. One of the inherent benefits of EPON versus other PON alternatives is the ability to transport all traffic in its native IP/Ethernet format. This protocol efficiency is vital to the IP convergence of all traffic - Voice,Video and Data. Should the need arise for RF overlay, the EPON2 LIF may accommodate such deployments in the future*.

As IP convergence continues in last mile access, Allied Telesis’ iMAP and EPON2 LIF are well poised to enable the transition while maintaining a cost effective point-to-multipoint optical last mile infrastructure. Since worldwide deployments of EPON have significantly outpaced other PON alternatives, Allied Telesis is able to leverage aggressive price points. When used with Allied Telesis’ intelligent Multiservice Gateways (iMG), the EPON2 enables seamless delivery of IP services to residential and small business customers.

Part of a IP Broadband Access Family

Whether it is broadband ADSL2+, FTTH or POTS, the iMAP family is the ideal platform for last mile service delivery.The EPON2 line card can be used with any of the iMAP family of carrier grade, IP Multiservice Access Platforms:

•iMAP 9700 (9RU, 17 service slots)

•iMAP 9400 (3RU, 7 service slots)

•MiniMAP 9100 (1RU, 3 service slots)

Provisioning, management, and diagnostics of subscriber ports can be accomplished from either the iMAP command line interface or the NMS.
