AT-TN118-A 2 Port EPON Service Module

FTTH Over Any Last Mile
Infrastructure

As broadband deployments continue the
gradual but inevitable migration to Fiber To The
Home (FTTH), Allied Telesis is well positioned
to support any FTTH infrastructure with the
introduction of the EPON2 line interface
module. This addition complements the existing
line of active 100Mbps FTTX products available
from Allied Telesis. As customer demand for IP
enabled services increases, Service Providers
must weigh the benefits of point-to-point
versus point-to-multipoint deployments. The
Allied Telesis iMAP is the only IP access
platform that offers solutions for both scenarios
eliminating the uncertainty of which last mile
infrastructure to deploy.

Using the same approach to last mile design,
the EPON2 service module is made with
hardened components offering Service
Providers of all kinds the added flexibility of
CO or remote deployments. With standards
based 1000BASE-PX20 U/D pluggable SFP
optics, the EPON2 module provides optical
reach of up to 20km using while supporting up
to 32 subscribers per PON port. Supporting
key features such as QoS, security and IP Video,
the EPON2 module is a key component to any
IP Triple Play deployment relying on PON last
mile infrastructures.

As IPTV services continue to reach out to
residential communities, Service Providers using
Allied Telesis’ iMAP and EPON2 solution can
accommodate the most advanced
communications services available today.
Supporting 16:1 or 32:1 splits, the EPON2
module can support PON bandwidth up to
1Gbps bidirectional. With powerful QoS traffic
management, the AT-TN118 provides minimum
bandwidth guarantees and maximum bandwidth
limits on a per subscriber, per service basis.

Continuing the IP Convergence
over PON

In choosing EPON IEEE 802.3ah standards
based technology, Allied Telesis has enabled
Service Providers with the ability to offer native
IP-based services over either existing or new-
build PON infrastructures. One of the inherent
benefits of EPON versus other PON
alternatives is the ability to transport all traffic
in its native IP/Ethernet format. This protocol
efficiency is vital to the IP convergence of all
traffic - Voice,Video and Data. Should the need
arise for RF overlay, the EPON2 LIF may
accommodate such deployments in the future*.

As IP convergence continues in last mile access,
Allied Telesis’ iMAP and EPON2 LIF are well
poised to enable the transition while
maintaining a cost effective point-to-multipoint
optical last mile infrastructure. Since worldwide
deployments of EPON have significantly
outpaced other PON alternatives, Allied Telesis
is able to leverage aggressive price points.
When used with Allied Telesis’ intelligent
Multiservice Gateways (iMG), the EPON2
enables seamless delivery of IP services to
residential and small business customers.

Part of a IP Broadband Access
Family

Whether it is broadband ADSL2+, FTTH or
POTS, the iMAP family is the ideal platform for
last mile service delivery.The EPON2 line card
can be used with any of the iMAP family of
carrier grade, IP Multiservice Access Platforms:

iMAP 9700 (9RU, 17 service slots)

iMAP 9400 (3RU, 7 service slots)

MiniMAP 9100 (1RU, 3 service slots)

Provisioning, management, and diagnostics of
subscriber ports can be accomplished from
either the iMAP command line interface or 
the NMS.
