CommScope: All-In-One Cabinet

Sept. 25, 2024

CommScope’s All-In-One (AIO) Cabinet merges its active equipment environmentally controlled OSP Cabinet Technology and Fiber Distribution Hub technology into a single active and passive cabinet specifically designed to power, cool, and protect Optical Line Terminal (OLT) active equipment. Compatible with most major PON equipment manufacturers. The AIO cabinet is typically located within the OSP towards the network’s edge. Positioning OLTs deeper within the network enables greater network reach into rural environments and effectively resets the reach of the PON optical budget. The AIO cabinet, which can be up to 100 km away from the headend and remotely housing the OLT, enables FTTH networks to reach rural locations, resulting in savings from building additional head ends or OSP huts in remote locations.

JUDGE’S COMMENT: “By enabling placement up to 100 km from the headend, the AIO cabinet supports extending FTTH network reach into rural areas, reducing the need for multiple cabinets.”
