Siemens and Calix Announce BPON Interoperability

Siemens Communications and Calix announced interoperability between the Calix C7 multiservice access platform and the new announced Siemens broadband passive optical network (BPON) products. The two portfolios provide standards-based FTTP optical network terminal (ONT) and optical network unit (ONU) solutions.


Operating as a BPON optical line terminal (OLT), the Calix C7 platform allows service providers to deliver an identical mix of voice, data and video services to both fiber-connected and copper wire-connected subscribers. The Siemens family of FTTP ONT/ONU products is deployable in multiple environments such as single-family residences, businesses and multi-dwelling housing units.
