Enablence has been successfully shipping GPON products incorporating BroadLight’s BL2338 and BL2340 Communications Controller ICs and now will start using the BL2345 and the BL 2348 Communications Controllers ICs for expanding the Enablence GPON product portfolio of Optical Network Terminals (ONTs) and Residential Gateways. The Enablence Optical Line Terminal (OLT) platform currently incorporates BroadLight’s BL3458 Communications Controller ICs for Optical Line Terminals (OLTs).
“BroadLight is the clear market leader in the GPON space by delivering products that power the entire GPON system,” Bill Saunders, Enablence’s Vice President of Engineering. “We have had a long term relationship with BroadLight and as demand for our GPON equipment continues to expand the BroadLight’s IC solution was the best way to get to the market quickly with a low-cost and powerful GPON product line with Enablence’s own PLC based technology.”
“Our GPON communications controller IC product shipments are now ramping as we are seeing GPON becoming more pervasive throughout the access market,” said Didi Ivancovsky, Founder and VP of Marketing for BroadLight. “Our GPON communications controllers are enabling our customers to deliver complete GPON solutions at an attractive price point in all market segments.”
About the BL3458 Communications Controller Integrated Circuits
The BL3458 is a 4-port GPON Optical Line Terminal (OLT) controller consuming an amazingly low 4 Watts in a 35x35mm package. The BL3458 includes; four ITU-T G.984 compliant MACs; an embedded processor for device provisioning and controlling; a Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) engine; burst-mode CDR and SERDES; seamless connectivity to the leading Ethernet switches and Network Processors for WT-156 based service provisioning and proven interoperability and performance.
About the BL2345 and BL2348 Communications Controller Integrated Circuits
The powerful BL2345 and BL2348 System on Chip (SoC) communications controllers are designed to meet the high-performance requirements of GPON connected ONT and Residential Gateway devices. The BL2345 and BL2348’s dual core network processor architecture provides the flexibility, high-performance and low-power features necessary for WT-156 enabled high-speed Customer Premise Equipment (CPE). The BL2345/48’s embedded Ethernet MACs and home networking interfaces enables a variety of data port configurations and connectivity options.
