Overview
Accelerating Gigabit Services
Premium broadband services are fueling the need for pushing fibre deeper into the network and closer to the end user. However, the cost of delivering Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) can be both cost-prohibitive as well as time consum-ing, particularly in remote and rural locations. Next-generation broadband technologies such as Bonded and Vectored VDSL2 allow service providers to utilise existing copper infrastructure in combination with sealed Fibre-to-the-Node (FTTN) solutions to cost-effectively deliver ultra-broadband (100+ Mbps) and IPTV services to subscribers in all areas.
Faster Time-to-Market
The ADTRAN 1148VXP compact sealed FTTN solution allows service providers to realise ultra-broadband speeds with their existing copper infrastructure, economically delivering 100 Mbps+ premium broadband services to the home using Vectored VDSL2.
ADTRAN designed the standalone, weather-proof 1100 Series FTTN systems to be mounted on a pole, pedestal, cross-box, remote terminal or other challenging locations, eliminating the need for expensive cabinet enclosures, heat exchangers and site construction, which account for a large portion of the total cost of deploy-ment. This allows for ultra broadband services deployment within days, instead of months, dramatically lowering deployment costs.
Support Existing POTS
The 1148VXP supports emerging ultra broad-band (100+ Mbps) services with existing services, such as plain old telephone services
(POTS), allowing services providers to converge and optimise their network architecture. The 1148VXP provides 48 POTS interfaces to support up to 48 subscribers. The subscriber interface is traditional analog POTS, but the 1148VXP POTS interface converts each analog signal direct to an RFC 3550 IP packet, allowing voice traffic to be carried across the same Ethernet transport architecture alongside next-generation broadband and IPTV services. The 1148VXP also supports SIP and MGCP for native Voice over IP.
Cost-Effectively Expand Footprint
Integrated 10-Gigabit Ethernet switching in the 1148VXP Host units allow connecting up to four 1148VX/1148VXP nodes to create an FTTN system that scales to 192 ports in a single managed node, accommodating long-term growth and lowering initial circuit costs. Built-in device-level vectoring allows connecting two 1148VXPs (96 ports) without the need for an external vectoring resource module (VRM). Up to 384-ports of system-level vectoring is allowed with external vectoring resource module (VRM). This eliminates complex binder management required by the less capable 48-port only board- level vectoring solutions. Ethernet Ring Protec-tion Switching (ERPS) support enables resilient connection of multiple nodes while minimising aggregation port cost.
