ADC Expands PONy Express Access Transport Platform
Posted on: Friday, 13 June 2008, 09:00 CDT
ADC, a provider of connections for wireline, wireless, cable, broadcast, and enterprise networks, has expanded its PONy Express access transport platform with a new WDM-PON application that enables service providers to meet the demands for increasing bandwidth by maximizing their fiber capacity.
According to the company, its PONy (passive optical network over wavelengths) Express, is a transport platform which addresses the bottleneck that occurs in traditional optical access networks, is combined with a wavelength-division-multiplexed passive optical network (WDM-PON) plug-and-play splitter in a fiber distribution cabinet to provide an easy upgrade from Gigabit PON (GPON) to WDM-PON with minimal service impact.
Up to 16 customers can be simultaneously connected with each having up to 1Gbps of dedicated, symmetrical bandwidth. This solution is designed to enable service providers to address multiple markets such as Fiber-To-The Building and Fiber-To-The-Curb with a single product.
Jon Norton, vice president of network solutions for ADC, said: "Service providers worldwide are deploying PON, including GPON, to provide the bandwidth that consumers and enterprises demand. However, GPON can't meet long-term bandwidth requirements and WDM-PON provides a future-proof solution because its initial per-subscriber capacity of 100Mbps is more than enough to support the most bandwidth-intensive applications and services."
