Hitachi's Salira product line creates new opportunities to bring fiber-based broadband services to enterprise and residential as well cellular backhaul applications. Hitachi is at the forefront of affordable DOCSIS managed and multi wavelength PON networks that offer massive bandwidth increases for service providers.
The Salira PON solutions for cable system operators include: Headend equipment, Customer premises equipment and Management platforms. Salira's products are designed to make the economics of Fiber-to-the-Premises work for you. The flexibility of Hitachi's portfolio insures support for all subscriber applications.
Hitachi's PON systems utilize a point-to-multipoint fiber topology that is both cost-effective and efficient to manage. These industry-leading systems combine the simplicity of Ethernet, the world's most ubiquitous network protocol, with the throughput of fiber optics. In other words, Salira develops systems that are Ethernet Simple, and Fiber Fast, to deliver advanced triple play and business services. These standards-compliant Salira EPON platforms are ideally-suited for the high-speed transmission of data, voice and video and all applications for business customers. Salira platform is MEF certified and supports these services while driving cost out of the network.
The Salira PON solutions enable MSOs, ILECs and CLECs to add fiber to their copper networks when and where they need it. Because they operate in conjunction with the existing access network they are the best approach for migrating from an HFC and twisted pair access network to FTTP architectures.
DePON is a unique PON offering that, for the first time, gives MSOs the ability to manage and operate EPON networks with their existing DOCSIS infrastructure. It preserves the existing investment in DOCSIS management, servers, applications and operations. Cable operators can use DePON to begin the migration to fiber-based networks while continuing to leverage existing DOCSIS and OSS operating procedures. Compared to existing and emerging HFC-based solutions, Salira's DePON systems increase bandwidth levels dramatically. Salira DePON provides symmetrical capacity of up to 4Gbps per fiber feeder that can easily deliver the bandwidth-intensive applications that subscribers require. DePON enables cable operators to grow their customer base strategically when and where they have demand. DePON systems seamlessly coexist with existing DOCSIS-based systems and offer a strategic migration platform from HFC to FTTP.
