Connect Broadband Access Controller Advantages
Vendor Neutral
CBAC breaks vendor lock-in, helping broadband service providers achieve
hardware and software neutrality with the disaggregation of proprietary
black box OLTs into vOLT software and white box OLTs, which helps
providers achieve better economies of scale with commodity platforms.
Deployment Flexibility
CBAC has the ability to instantiate virtual OLTs and remotely manage
white box OLTSs deployed at various locations, such as remote nodes,
Central Offices (Cos), metro aggregation nodes, and the core, giving
service providers deployment flexibility and service agility.
Network Agility
Highly programmable and scalable virtualized access network enables
service providers to add new network functions on-demand, drive rapid
innovation and generate new revenue.
Cost Efficiency
CBAC helps providers achieve greater Opex savings by transitioning
to commodity white box OLTs and by leveraging a single virtual OLT
software platform with highly programmable SDN control across diverse
broadband access technologies.
Access Network Agnostic
CBAC allows SDN control across diverse broadband and more
technologies, such as G-PON and XGS-PON.
Tier 1 Network Hardened Solution
The CBAC solution has been rigorously tested with tier-1 providers and is
aligned with open communities.
