TK3401

Service providers face a variety of common problems in deploying higher-performance access network offerings to businesses, cell-tower backhaul, and residential subscribers that largely boil down to the need to be able to economically support communications over longer distances, to more customers, over a finite fiber plant. Traditional solutions to these problems include installation of new trunk/feeder fibers, optical amplifiers, remotely-locating central office equipment in the field, or the use of specialized optics. Teknovus’ Intelligent PON Node provides a comprehensive, cost-effective solution that leverages commonly-available components in a dense and low-power form factor that addresses all of these situations.

The TK3401 SOC (System-on-Chip) facilitates evolution of the PON network by extending central office (OLT) to subscriber (ONU) distances up to 100 km and by supporting connections to over 1,000 subscriber ONUs while supporting remote management, configuration and upgrade, protection switching, and low power operation. Teknovus’ TK3401 Intelligent EPON Node Controller enables service providers to meet the varying needs of network topologies and subscriber densities with all of the features, power and cost advantages of the Teknovus EPON solution.
