LIVERMORE, Calif., Oct 26, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- PMCS | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Alloptic, a global leader in the development of RF over glass (RFoG) and passive optical networking (PON) solutions for CATV, telecom, and private network operators worldwide, today announced that it has extended the capabilities of its edge10(TM) OLT to interoperate with ONT designs that are based on EPON chipsets from industry leaders PMC-Sierra and Teknovus.

Interoperability is a critical step in making EPON scalable for network operators, giving them the flexibility to choose any vendor's application-specific or best-of-breed ONTs whether it is from Alloptic or based around PMC-Sierra or Teknovus chipsets. This capability is unmatched when paired with Alloptic RFoG solutions, allowing the network operator choice in both DOCSIS and EPON customer premise equipment.

Interoperability of ONTs via a common OLT allows the network operator to support a wide variety of applications and customer segments over a common infrastructure. Multiple vendors can create ONTs for specific market requirements giving network operators tailored, yet cost-effective ONT solutions. Leveraging the Alloptic edge10 OLT allows those different ONTs to be deployed on a common fiber infrastructure, even on the same PON.

"Alloptic continues to push technology forward, driving paradigm shifts in how to deploy cost-effective FTTx solutions," says Shane Eleniak, Executive Vice President of Marketing and Business Development at Alloptic. "It has been great to work with PMC-Sierra and Teknovus in bringing interoperability to market and pushing the status quo in EPON developments."

"PMC-Sierra has always focused on delivering fully standard-compliant products in every FTTH market in which we operate," said Raphael Sankar, Vice President and co-General Manager for PMC-Sierra's FTTH division. "This Alloptic initiative demonstrates a fully interoperable EPON system that is ready for the mass MSO market without using proprietary methods that limit availability and increase cost."

"Teknovus is excited to be working with Alloptic, a leader in the EPON & RFoG markets," says Paul Runcy, Director of the Americas. "Extending interoperability to the cable world enables the MSOs to reach the same level of widespread EPON deployment as seen in China, Korea, and Japan. MSOs can add or change customer premise equipment to meet market requirements, without needing to upgrade the network at the same time."
