Calix has expanded its portfolio of VDSL2 products complementing its Ethernet Unified Access Platform (ESAP), aimed at covering some of the few remaining density options that clients might require.
The new equipment includes two new Ethernet eXtensible Architecture (EXA)-powered VDSL2 lines cards for the ESAP, featuring up to 96 VDSL2 combo ports (or 48 overlay ports and support for bonding and vectoring), two 10 gigabit Ethernet (10 GE) ports, and two ports capable of GE or 2.5 Gbps service delivery. This is a two-card slot, one rack unit (1RU), modular, chassis-based product.
Calix also introduced 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. Available for the one-, six- and 12-slot B6 chassis, the new card is targeted for existing deployments that require an increase in the bandwidth of traditional DSL technologies, as well as greenfield deployments.
Rural Telephone/Nex-Tech will be upgrading its Calix equipment to migrate to VDSL2 using that new combo card. Rural Telephone is using the Calix B6 ESAN to deliver voice, video and high-speed data services in western Kansas. The provider is deploying the new B6-256 line card to increase subscriber broadband rates in existing ADSL2+ service areas.
Leveraging the new B6-256 VDSL2 and POTS combination (combo) card, Rural Telephone/Nex-Tech will nearly quadruple broadband capacity in the last mile, while simultaneously increasing access network capacity with 10 GE, Calix explained.

Cisco serves up wireless boxes to AT&T
Cisco is laying claim to an industry first with its new wireless IPTV receiver, which AT&T will offer across its entire footprint on Monday.
Cisco’s ISB7005 wireless receiver allows U-verse subscribers to send standard-definition and high-definition programming around a home via 802.11n Wi-Fi. The system also features Cisco’s VEN401 Wireless Access Point, which, along with the wireless receiver, is now part of the company’s Videoscape product stable.
“Never before has it been so easy to move your TV around the home to wherever it suits you,” said Joe Chow, vice president and general manager of connected home solutions for the Service Provider Video Technology Group at Cisco. “We are excited to reach this industry milestone, becoming the first to bring wireless TV to market with AT&T. Cisco is pleased to achieve new heights as AT&T’s wireless TV technology provider.”
The wireless platform delivers live TV channels and interactive services and also functions as a whole-home HD DVR, allowing consumers to view and manage DVR recordings wirelessly from a wired DVR in the home.
While AT&T customers will benefit from sending video content to areas that were previously not served through wires, AT&T saves on the time and money needed to wire a home.
