Orange County Broadband Authority (OCBA) has selected ADTRAN's Total Access 5000 (TA5000) fiber access platform to bring broadband internet services to its community. 

When no other Internet Service Provider (ISP) would service the rural region, OCBA partnered with ADTRAN utilizing the General Services Administration (GSA) schedule for procurement. The OCBA built its own Fiber-to-the-Premise (FTTP) broadband network to deliver affordable internet service to its residential and business customers.

 

The OCBA is leveraging the TA5000 fiber access platform to build a highly efficient broadband access architecture using high-capacity XGS-PON to offer internet connection speeds up to 10G. The OCBA is now able to better support remote learning and work-from-home employees, as well as enable its residents to connect to telehealth services and avoid commuting nearly an hour to the nearest hospitals.

Lewis Foster, Broadband Program Manager, OCBA
With ADTRAN’s fiber access platform, we are able to leverage our resources in the most efficient and cost-saving way while advancing the economy and quality of life for subscribers in our area.

Craig Stein, VP of Sales for Americas and Head of Global Business Development, ADTRAN
High-speed broadband is a vital resource no longer reserved for urban environments. Communities across rural America are working to bring the benefits of broadband to their neighborhoods, farms, manufacturers, schools and businesses.
