point-to-multipoint deep fiber access GPON with ericsson eda 1500 fiber solutions
Today s digital life is expanding into all possible areas of society, looking to connect everybody and everything. This Networked Society enables people to collaborate, innovate, sustain, learn, care and participate in ways we never thought possible just a few years ago. One of the most important things in a networked society is to get the data into the ground as quickly as possible and make the data as smart as possible. To realize the infinite potential of networked society, operators need simple, smart and scalable solutions to design flexible and future-proof networks. FTTH deployment optimized with GPON Consumer demand for IPTV and other advanced services is creating today the need for a converged high-capacity all-ip based fiber network. The promise of the all-optical IP network includes dramatic efficiencies and cost savings, and significantly more bandwidth. It shouldn t be surprising that a majority of carriers have selected Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) point-to-multipoint systems that share one fiber connection between multiple users with no requirement for active equipment in the outside plant. GPON, an Ethernet and ITU based standard, offers a costeffective solution that offers high data rate and enhanced functionality. Passive components in the outside plant do not require power to operate. As multiple users share part of the distribution network, less rack space is needed in the Central Office for active interfaces and optical distribution frames. GPON provides the migration path to an all-ip network and offers the bandwidth required to deliver the new advanced voice, video, and data services. The networked society enables people to collaborate, innovate, sustain, learn, care and participate in ways we never thought possible 2
Fiber to the home network termination Ericsson s EDA 1500 GPON platform offers a fiber based, next-generation solution that enables true IP-convergence in the access network, allowing carriers to packetize all voice, data, and video services. The GPON solution is comprised of our industry s highest-density, highest-capacity EDA 1500 OLT and an extensive range of single family, multi-dwelling, home gateway, mobile backhaul and business ONTs, and carrier-grade EntriView EMS. Broadband history clearly tells us that Nielsen s law of bandwidth is quite accurate and the demand for high speeds is continuously growing. However, it is just not about high bandwidth. The main advantage of a fiber network is creating a future proof intelligent network that can provide the required flexibility operators need to offer dynamic packages to end users. of ONTs and ONUs enable operators to use the same simple GPON topology to cater to different types of users in different density areas. For example, the T7xxG GPONfed modular ONU series provides flexibility for operators delivering ADSL2+, VDSL2, POTS, E1 and Ethernet services to both business and residential users. It also enables operators to support dense areas with different service requirements without rewiring buildings. Ericsson s EDA 1500 GPON platform offers a fiber based, next-generation solution that enables true ip-convergence in the access network Simple to install and reduce Opex For successful mass deployment of a GPON network, it is extremely important for operators to have a GPON platform that is easy to install and operate. EDA 1500 is a dedicated GPON platform. The EntriView Element Management System streamlines provisioning and management of the OLT, ONTs and delivery of services with unparalleled ease. Features like speed click provisioning and advanced monitoring functions lowers the total cost of ownership significantly.

Smart Architecture enables current and next-generation services The Networked society is seeing unprecedented media consumption over a multitude of devices. Providing single, best-effort internet access pipes to the subscribers is not enough. The GPON network needs to be aware of devices, content, location, users and flow. The superior EDA 1500 architecture provides various tools to enable current and next-generation services. The distributed EDA multicasting architecture with advanced IPTV bandwidth control features ensure guaranteed instant channel changes while reducing backplane bandwidth by up to 210 times and IGMP signaling up to 14,000 times. Dedicated traffic managers per PON board enable operators to offer flexible packages to end users by utilizing the zero-contention system in an efficient manner. EDA 1500 is also a converged platform for packet and TDM services across fixed enterprise and mobile applications. The Integrated TDM Gateway (ITG) board terminates and aggregates E1 services across 4 multiple GPON ports at the OLT for STM-1 connectivity to existing TDM networks. This wide range of smart features is extremely necessary to improve an operator s total cost of ownership. Scalable to reduce the time-to-market To ensure higher total value of ownership and a quick payback period, it is extremely important for operators to achieve a high take-up rate on their fiber networks. For this they need to make sure they are leaders, not followers and have the capability to launch exciting services in quick time before the competition. Bandwidth explosion and fast growth in subscribers, devices and sessions resulted in a need for operators to have solutions that are scalable and flexible. Ericsson has set a new benchmark in GPON port density for its EDA 1500 platform. The unprecedented 16-port GPON OLT board enables broadband services to more than 14,000 FTTH GPON subscribers in a single EDA 1500 chassis. This density provides significant total cost of ownership savings for operators by reducing central office space, average port
costs, and the power profile per line. As a result, operators can easily scale their network while maintaining a high quality of experience for HDTV and 3DTV services. EDA 1500 platform features a 3.2 Tbps backplane that can be configured with any board in any slot, enabling operators to deploy a truly scalable, non-blocking, and no-contention GPON system. The 320 Gbps switching capacity, both under normal conditions and after failover, features a dual star architecture with dedicated 20 Gbps data traces between each FABX/Y control card slot and all application slots. This architecture provides complete flexibility and the future-proof GPON platform is capable of hosting the nextgeneration 10 Gig GPON cards in the same chassis. Making investments in fiber network requires a futureproof technology like that of EDA 1500, which is optimized in terms of capacity, quality and flexibility.
