Alloptic, Inc., a global leader in the design and development of Gigabit Ethernet Passive Optical Networks (GEPONs), the most widely deployed next generation access network solution, today announced the launch of their newest family of ONTs: the Xgen series. The Xgen family of ONTs provide unmatched flexibility, bandwidth, redundancy, and optical reach.

"With the introduction of Alloptic's extended Gigabit Ethernet Node (Xgen) ONTs, Alloptic's customers have access to a new level of service options," said Shane Eleniak, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development for Alloptic. "The Xgen family of products allows operators greater flexibility in deploying higher bandwidth access technology. The Xgen family of products provides PON redundancy, allowing for fiber redundancy to the ONT, for business critical and physical security applications. Additionally, the Xgen products support longer reach optics with span budgets of up to 80km, allowing PON to be deployed beyond the industry's current 20km limits. The Xgen family provides operators the greatest flexibility in their choice of physical final drop medium to the customer. The Xgen products allow operators to support in building Category 5E and 6, copper twisted-pair, single mode and multimode fiber, or coax wiring, in addition to enabling a BPL, or wireless backhaul service."
