The three new products, part of Calix’s 700G family of GPON ONTs, are aimed at the unique requirements of commercial deployment environments, from residential and mixed-use apartment buildings, dormitories, or hospitality locations, to business parks, strip malls, and stand-alone enterprises.

Service providers can use the portfolio to offer a mix of services and applications, including IPTV, RF video, gigabit Ethernet, TDM voice, support for DS-1 lines, and even cellular backhaul — all over fiber to the premises (FTTP).

Features and applications of the new Calix 760G ONT portfolio:

* The 760G supports eight POTS lines, four 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports, four RF video ports, and one hot RF video port; it is designed for MDUs, hospitality, and mixed-use business/residential deployments.

* The 762G supports eight POTS lines, eight 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports, four RF video ports, and one hot RF video port; it is designed for MDUs, hospitality and mixed-use business/residential deployments.

* The 765G supports eight POTS lines, four DS-1 lines, four 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports, four RF video ports, and one hot RF video port; it is designed for business and mixed-used business/residential deployments and cellular backhaul applications.

* All of the 760G ONTs support 2.5 gigabit per second (Gbps) GPON on the Calix C7 multiservice access platform with Release 6.0 software.

* Every ONT in the portfolio is hardened, and power supplies are available for indoor and outdoor locations.

"Calix is filling an important market need in our markets across Florida and the Caribbean with its new MDU and business ONTs" said Jeff Beekhoo, principal of DVI Consultants, Inc. "Many of our developer customers use advanced communications services – in particular the extraordinary bandwidth enabled via fiber to the premises technology – as a way to differentiate their MDU properties."
