Optimized Solutions for Service Providers Seeking to Capitalize on Mobile Backhaul and Business Services

The Calix 766GX is the most popular Calix ONT used for fiber-fed mobile backhaul and business services. The 766GX combines a powerful combination of features and deployment flexibility, supporting both GPON and point-to-point GE. The 766GX incorporates Ethernet OAM conforming to MEF 8. Because of a variety of versions, the 766GX can be deployed indoors or outside, in rack- and wall-mounted options, with +24 VDC or -48VDC power options. Each 766GX supports eight T1s, four GEs, eight POTS interfaces, and four RF ports. T1 ports on the 766GX can be provisioned as TDM or PWE. Each of the T1s supports in-band loopback, eliminating the need for separate smartjacks on T1s. The 766GX has integrated auto-detect technology, which can be turned up in either GPON or Active Ethernet mode at any time, providing a crucial bandwidth management tool for the future.

Beyond winning initial deployment opportunities, the 766GX provides substantial ongoing CAPEX and OPEX benefits as well. Available in an outdoor wall-mounted option, this ONT's deployment flexibility can drive capital savings of up to 80% relative to comparable cabinet-based SONET solutions. Also available in a rack-mounted option, the766GX allows service providers to deploy a common ONT platform for all configurations, eliminating extensive engineering requirements on a site-by-site basis. Furthermore, because craft personnel can install and commission service at any cell tower with just a cordless screwdriver and a buttset, the time and resources required to turn up each cell tower site are dramatically reduced.
