Unified Fiber Access Solutions

Programmability Enables Feature Evolution and Prolonged Product Life

A new wave of Fiber Access infrastructure is under way. It utilizes fiber to the home/basement/curb to unleash the full bandwidth potential in next generation broadband systems. Based on Carrier Ethernet standards, these new access systems promise to boost bandwidth and reduce cost.

Xelerated offers unified and programmable fiber access solutions to help system vendors to streamline R&D and keep margins at healthy levels. Xelerated X11 and AX chips are ideally suited for platforms targeting Fiber To The Home/Building/Curb/Node applications. They provide access packet processing for point-to-point Ethernet, VDSL, GPON/EPON, and 3G/LTE/WiMAX backhaul.
