Calix announced that more than 75 communications service providers (CSPs) worldwide are deploying its 10G solutions.
According to Calix, the versatility of the AXOS platform and the everyPON strategy, enable CSPs to simplify their networks and operations with the technology of their choice. Coupled with Calix Marketing Cloud, CSPs can accurately identify subscribers ready for 10G PON services and ensure they are deploying the ideal PON technology to deliver the desired experience.
Calix claims that its AXOS is the only software access platform with a portfolio of systems that will power networks built on all PON technologies—GPON, XGS-PON, 10G EPON, and NG-PON2. The E7-2 Intelligent Modular System and the E9-2 Intelligent Edge System both offer the scalability to grow networks and modular architecture to enable CSPs to switch technologies as needed. The E3-2 Intelligent PON Node enables CSPs to deploy 10G PON to subscribers in remote locations without a remote cabinet, reducing the need for costly and time-consuming rights of way for installation. CSPs can also incorporate Layer 3 functionality with the Intelligent Access Edge solution, which consolidates edge routing, subscriber management, aggregation, and OLT functionality, dramatically simplifying network architectures and operations. With AXOS, CSPs can future proof their fiber networks and deploy the right technology at the right time to optimize their capital investments.

The AXOS portfolio features a complete set of solutions for any 10G PON deployment scenario. As subscriber demand continues to increase, the ability to scale to meet that demand will necessitate maximum versatility across those 10G technologies.
