With two new additions, the Calix Unified Access portfolio now supports a wider array of advanced DSL solutions – from small fixed form factor solutions to large high density chassis, and a variety of modular cabinet retrofits and sealed nodal solutions in between. The two new additions include:
- Two new Ethernet extensible architecture (EXA) Powered VDSL2 line cards for the E7-2 Ethernet Service Access Platform (ESAP), featuring up to 96 VDSL2 combo ports or 48 overlay ports and support for bonding and vectoring, two 10 gigabit Ethernet (10GE) ports, and two ports capable of GE or 2.5 Gbps service delivery – in a two card slot, one rack unit (1RU), modular chassis-based form factor.
- A new VDSL2 combo card for the Calix B-Series Ethernet Service Access Nodes (ESANs), featuring 48 VDSL combo ports with bonding support and ADSL2+ fallback, as well as four 10 GE ports for optimal uplink capacity in a 1RU card.
