Immediately allows customers to expand the
range and reach of high-capacity FTTH deployments with
market-leading TA5000
ADTRAN®, Inc., (NASDAQ:ADTN), a leading provider of
next-generation open networking and subscriber experience software,
today announced that network operators worldwide can now deliver
multi-terabit scale with the market-leading Total Access 5000
(TA5000). With general availability of this innovative new 100G
transport capability, each TA5000 can scale to support more than
20k customers per system.
Totah Communications is leveraging the new 100G capability as
part of its transport network to aggregate traffic from several
TA5000 chassis already deployed in its access network. This 100G
transport network is required to support the ever-increasing
broadband demands and bandwidth-intensive applications such as 4K
video streaming, gaming and cloud-based services. Totah’s network
spans rural communities in Oklahoma and Kansas, and it believes
that having the 100G transport network will play a key role in
improving customers’ broadband experience.
“With the 100G available, we have the scale needed to expand the
range and reach of our Fiber-to-the-Premise services without the
added capital and operational impact of adding a new platform to
our network,” said Totah Communications President and General
Manager Mark Gailey. “ADTRAN’s ability to deliver one platform with
the Total Access 5000 that can scale to meet today’s needs and
tomorrow’s, is the type of streamlined, operationally efficient
system that makes it the ideal solution as we expand our fiber
rollouts. There is no need to maintain two network infrastructures.
This allows Totah to use USF dollars to continue to get the speeds
our customers demand, and the FCC requires.”
With the SM200 100G Switch Module, Nx100G uplinks with
integrated DWDM transport can now be delivered with the TA5000,
providing a streamlined, economically efficient path to meet and
exceed network capacity needs today, tomorrow and into the future.
The ability to scale to 100G means that any of the nearly 60,000
TA5000s deployed can quickly and cost-effectively scale
simultaneous multi-gigabit business, residential and backhaul
services with a platform that has served as the trusted cornerstone
of a service provider’s access networks for over a decade.
ADTRAN continues to lead the 10G PON transformation by providing
up to 560Gbps uplink capacity and 1.2Tbps of switching capacity as
part of the TA5000 platform. It provides the scaled network
capacity required by mass deployment of multi-gigabit services over
10G PON and is the ideal addition to ADTRAN’s broad 10G existing
portfolio. The SM200 Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS)
support together with the TA5000 Optical Network Edge capabilities
provides flexibility for network transport, and network deployment
options from both Central Office (CO) and Remote Terminal (RT)
locations.
“To support multiple 10G PON service delivery, the SM200 Switch
Module supports non-blocking connectivity to every access module
slot,” said ADTRAN Product Line Manager Javier Lopez. “The
increased capacity of the switch fabric for the Total Access 5000
SM200 allows operators to scale both network and subscriber
bandwidth for years to come—without a forklift replacement.”
The Total Access 5000 SM200 Switch Module is SD-Access ready and
available now. More information can be found here.
