Network Engineering
Meeting the growing demand on network engineers
Subscriber demands are putting pressure on the network while network engineers continue to grapple with complexity and security. Communications service providers can take a fresh approach to these mounting issues.
Your challenges
Challenges facing broadband network engineers today
The growing demand for faster and more reliable network services and the emergence of new technologies puts pressure on network engineers to ensure networks can handle increased traffic, maintain high performance, and scale efficiently to accommodate future needs.
In today's fast-paced and technology-driven world, managing modern networks has become increasingly complex. It involves dealing with complex architectures, integration, and management of diverse systems while maintaining optimal performance and reliability.
Network security remains a critical challenge. With cyber threats increasing in complexity, engineers must continually update and secure network infrastructure against various forms of attacks, such as ransomware, DDoS attacks, phishing, and other evolving security threats.

Solutions to improve your network
The impossible is now possible
Pushing the extremes of outdoor Wi-Fi
Deliver extraordinary 1 mile Wi-Fi coverage—and everything in between. With long-range outdoor Wi-Fi, communications service providers can extend the ultimate Wi-Fi subscriber experience to untapped markets such as large-acreage rural communities, farms, campsites, marinas, and golf courses.
GPON delivers fiber to the home and business
Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) is the leading fiber access technology for delivering gigabit internet services to residential and business subscribers. An all-fiber technology, GPON is used to build Fiber to the Premises (FTTP)—also known as Fiber to the Home (FTTH)—networks that connect subscribers to the local ISP serving office.
The right 10G PON solution for your network, at the right time
10G-PON solutions give service providers the flexibility to meet current subscriber demands while building toward future network capacity. With the right 10G-PON appliance, providers can upgrade incrementally—delivering new services to subscribers in days, not weeks.
Network security for your perimeter and everything in-between
Communications service providers need to develop and execute a comprehensive, end-to-end security strategy with policies to secure all layers of the network. Protecting the network and subscribers from Distributed Denial of Service attacks (DDoS), Trojan horses, botnets, computer worms, adware, spyware, and malware is critical to that strategy.
Eliminate your FCC performance testing compliance risk
Regulatory bodies such as the FCC have mandated that service providers using certain funding sources put all the necessary equipment, systems, and procedures in place to enable performance testing and start reporting their results on a regular basis.
Active Ethernet can help you simplify your operations
Active Ethernet (AE) is a point-to-point fiber access technology for delivering internet services to residential and business subscribers. As the name implies, point-to-point offers a dedicated fiber connection to subscribers with Fiber to the Home (FTTH) or Fiber to the Business (FTTB) services.
