ADTRAN®, Inc., (NASDAQ:ADTN), a provider of next-generation open networking and subscriber experience software, has announced that network operators worldwide can now deliver multi-terabit scale with the market-leading Total Access 5000 (TA5000), the company said.
With general availability of this innovative new 100G transport capability, each TA5000 can scale to support more than 20k customers per system.
Totah Communications is leveraging the new 100G capability as part of its transport network to aggregate traffic from several TA5000 chassis already deployed in its access network. This 100G transport network is required to support the ever-increasing broadband demands and bandwidth-intensive applications such as 4K video streaming, gaming and cloud-based services. Totah´s network spans rural communities in Oklahoma and Kansas, and it believes that having the 100G transport network will play a key role in improving customers´ broadband experience.
With the SM200 100G Switch Module, Nx100G uplinks with integrated DWDM transport can now be delivered with the TA5000, providing a streamlined, economically efficient path to meet and exceed network capacity needs today, tomorrow and into the future. The ability to scale to 100G means that any of the nearly 60,000 TA5000s deployed can quickly and cost-effectively scale simultaneous multi-gigabit business, residential and backhaul services with a platform that has served as the trusted cornerstone of a service provider´s access networks for over a decade.
ADTRAN solutions optimize existing technology infrastructures and create new, multi-gigabit platforms that leverage cloud economics, data analytics, machine learning and open ecosystems.
