Nokia 25G PON fibre modem

Nokia’s symmetrical 25G PON fibre modem, which helps to further accelerate 25G PON deployments, is a compact solution that can easily be installed on a wall, inside a building or in an outdoor enclosure to immediately deliver internet speeds that are 20x faster than current gigabit solutions. Once deployed, operators can leverage their existing fibre network to offer premium residential, business or anyhaul services that unlock additional revenue streams.

25G PON is an easy and power-efficient way for services providers to upgrade and maximise the use of their existing fibre network to deliver ultra-fast broadband access. The modem is an efficient 25G solution that can support all types of services and applications in the fibre-for-everything era.

The product allows operators to establish a future-ready network that can immediately address the growing demand for more capacity and enhanced broadband services. It enables operators to quickly upgrade their existing GPON or XGS PON network to deliver true 10 Gbps speeds and beyond with ease. For enterprises, this can help improve business productivity and enhance connectivity to the cloud or value-added applications located in data centres. For consumers and power users, it provides immediate access to additional capacity needed to support bandwidth-hungry applications such as AI, gaming or security.

Key features include: coexistence with GPON, XGS-PON and 50G PON on the same ODN; a hardened and compact design for various deployment practices and environments; symmetrical 25 Gbps throughput using pluggable optics; frequency and time-of-day synchronisation functions for mobile transport; and the ability to connect cell sites to transport mobile traffic over a PON network in plug-and-play mode, delivering the required capacity, latency and synchronisation required for 5G networks.
