The ADTRAN Total
Access 5000 MSAP is a
carrier-class multiservice
access and aggregation
platform that bridges the
gap between existing and
next-generation networks.
With a pure Ethernet core,
the Total Access 5000
supports both legacy and
emerging service interfaces over both copper and fiber, easily
scaling to support even the most bandwidth-intensive applications. The innovative product was recently cited for adding
Packet Optical Transport Switching (P-OTS) to its list of applications for access networks.
Total Access 5000 is built around a pure Ethernet core. All
incoming services, regardless of protocol, are handled as Ethernet, creating a native service delivery model for advanced services
without stranding existing legacy services. This allows the Total
Access 5000 to economically address multiple network applications with traditional network interfaces. It also addresses advanced capabilities such as Ethernet Ring Protection Switching,
VDSL2, 10 GigE, GPON, active Ethernet, WDM and OTN.

Motorola’s Passive Optical
LAN (POL) Solution is a
highly reliable and economically disruptive LAN solution that will revolutionize
the way voice, video and data
are distributed throughout
enterprises. POL replaces existing LAN connections with
a single high-capacity fiber optical cable designed to connect
end users directly to the data center. Derived from carrier-grade
passive optical networking (PON) technology, POL allows end
users to realize substantial capex and opex savings while taking
significant steps toward becoming more green.

IDEAA – Integrated Distribution Enabling Access
Apparatus: The IDEAA
product family revolutionizes the way passive optical
splitter modules are deployed in the outside-plant
network. An alternative to
traditional splitter-modulein-cabinet designs, IDEAA
allows service providers to
provision PON splitter module needs with less upfront cost by using a common footprint
module. Additionally, the IDEAA product family allows quick
and easy termination of distribution fibers using the latest AFL
FuseConnect technology.
Because it uses a small modular design, the IDEAA product can be installed in many different applications. This allows

exterior distribution enclosure or pedestal, exterior distribution
cabinet, sealed splice closure and rack mount bracket.

ATX Networks has expanded its UCrypt product offering, which is designed to support operators with the delivery
of content into hospitality and bulk MDU accounts, so that
virtually any deployment architecture and distribution application can be addressed. The UCrypt QAM-to-QAM product
was designed to transition content from HFC plant and retransmit into an MDU/hotel in Pro:Idiom/clear QAM format.
Expanding upon the success of that product, ATX has now included both IP and analog output capabilities in the UCrypt so
that operators can service IPTV-based hospitality accounts and
address accounts where supplying every dwelling with a set-top
box is not practical. ATX has also developed IP to Pro:Idiom
QAM, IP to Pro:Idiom IP, QAM to IP and QAM to analog as
a part of the UCrypt product suite to provide operators with
the ability to deploy Pro:Idiom encrypted content in a more
centralized manner. http://www.atxnetworks.com/bulk-qamto-qam-gige-analog-mdu

MUX-12A-IP (Multiplexer; 12:1 ASI-to-IP) is designed to
utilize a common hardware platform for two similar but separate applications. The IPTV mode is ideal for cherry-picking
applications and to allow operators to create custom-made
channel lineups by grooming SD and HD programs on an asneeded basis. The RF QAM mode is suitable for distribution
over coaxial networks, and each
input ASI stream
can contain up to
three programs –
typical for digital
off-air broadcasting applications.
The multiplexer
is Emergency Alert System (EAS) compliant in both modes –
the operator can assign ASI port #12 as an EAS input which,
when activated, will override the content of all other ASI inputs. Comprehensive remote monitoring and control is accomplished via a GUI-based interface using any standard Web
browser. Please come to Booth #206 at the 2011 BBP Summit
