Tellabs Launches FlexSym OLT2: Redefining Fiber Networking for Overlay and Tactical Applications
April 30 2024 - 7:07AM
Tellabs, a leading provider of Passive Optical Network (PON)
solutions, announces that Tellabs FlexSym® Optical Line Terminal 2
(FlexSym OLT2), along with System Release 32.0 (SR32.0) software is
moving forward with initial customer deployments.
The FlexSym OLT2 builds on Tellabs’
long-standing heritage of fiber network innovations with its small
form factor, quiet operations, flexible installation and
contemporary powering. FlexSym OLT2 is equipped with two PON
(either G-PON or 10 gigabit XGS-PON) and four Ethernet (either 1
gigabit or 10 gigabit) ports. What makes this OLT special is its
one rack unit height and half rack width which uniquely qualifies
it to be the ideal choice for the following fiber-based networking
applications:
- Overlay
Networks – These overlay networks can occur simply because
different groups (e.g., IT vs OT) are responsible for different
services. They can be LED lighting, multicast digital audio,
building management systems and security video surveillance
networks. The FlexSym OLT2 offers a better way to build and operate
overlay networks.
- Tactical
Networks – PON architecture is perfectly suited for
tactical, transportable and temporary networks from a small hand
carry case. The FlexSym OLT2 can play a leading role in these
portable systems that can integrate computing, storage, security,
communications, wired plus wireless connectivity and networking
powering.
- Small
Networks – The FlexSym OLT2 presents a versatile solution
ideal for smaller networks commonly encountered, even with large
customers, buildings and campuses. These compact network
configurations are prevalent across various market verticals such
as transportation, manufacturing, warehousing, distribution,
wholesale and retail sectors.
By bundling the Tellabs FlexSym OLT2 with PON technology, our
customers can gain financial benefits attributed to:
- Better
scalability while using less space
- Longer
reach to cover greater distances
-
Ubiquitous indoor and outdoor connectivity
- Simplify
operations, especially for non-technical staff
- Tighter
security with a smaller attack surface and Zero Trust
Architecture
- More
network uptime, thus greater reliability for mission-critical
connectivity
- Lower
costs – less equipment, material, cabling and ongoing operational
spend
“We expect the Tellabs FlexSym OLT2 can close the gap on many
modern connectivity challenges our customers and partners are
experiencing. With its compact design, low noise operation, plus
adaptable mounting and power options, the Tellabs FlexSym OLT2
stands poised to bridge the gap seamlessly,” said Rich Schroder,
Tellabs President and CEO.
