Calix Recognized as Top Vendor in Four out of Five Gfast Categories in Broadbandtrends Service Provider Survey
August 29 2017 - 8:25AM
Calix, Inc. (NYSE:CALX), the world leader in Subscriber Driven
Intelligent Access, announced it was ranked as a top vendor in four
out of five categories in the recent Broadbandtrends “2017 Global
Service Provider Survey: G.fast Deployment Strategies.” Calix AXOS
Gfast solutions earned the number one spot from global service
providers in the Product Performance, Product Roadmap, and Service
and Support categories, while also tying for the top spot in
Deployment Experience. As the first to demonstrate Collective
Dynamic Timing Allocation (cDTA) and introduce bonded Gfast
solutions for the delivery of symmetrical gigabit services over
Gfast, Calix continues to differentiate through innovation and
customer focus.
“Worldwide, the market for Gfast is quickly accelerating, moving
rapidly from lab trials to full-scale deployments as the technology
breathes new life into copper networks,” said Teresa Mastrangelo,
principal and founder of Broadbandtrends. "In conducting this
survey, service providers have made it clear that the market will
continue to grow in the future, as fiber-to-the-building deployment
scenarios, the prime application for Gfast, are rich opportunities
to gain additional market share. As Gfast evolves with new
advancements like cDTA and Amendment 3, the market is likely to
keep accelerating as service providers look to offer faster
broadband speeds over their existing copper
infrastructure."
AXOS Gfast solutions from Calix, including the E3-16F DPU and
E5-16F MDU Gfast Nodes, provide service providers with
industry-leading breadth in technology, deployment scenarios, and
interoperability testing. Throughout the Broadband Forum’s Gfast
certification program, Calix has successfully demonstrated more
interoperability scenarios than any other vendor. These
certification milestones include:
- Certification across multiple chipsets, including Sckipio and
Broadcom
- First to certify both DPU and premises solutions with multiple
chipsets
- The first end-to-end certified solution from the E5-16F Gfast
Node to the 801F GigaPoint
“Gfast has proven to be a strategic technology for our service
provider customers, and many are taking advantage of our AXOS
solutions to quickly deliver market-changing services with the
copper and coaxial networks they already have in place,” said Shane
Eleniak, Calix vice president of systems products. “As the Gfast
ecosystem continues to mature with the Broadband Forum
interoperability programs and the technology adds support for
faster speeds over a longer reach, service providers will have even
more options to deploy Gfast and extend the life of their copper
assets. We stand today as the world’s most widely commercially
deployed Gfast vendor for a reason – we are committed to being the
catalyst for innovation in the Gfast market, and partnering with
our service provider customers as they begin to accelerate their
deployments of this powerful technology.”
