NEW DELHI, India -- Alphion® India Private Limited announced today the launch of the AOLT-4200, small-form factor, Optical Line Terminal (OLT) platform that specifically addresses rural broadband and mobile backhaul applications. Alphion® India is exhibiting its full range of GPON products at the India Telecom 2012 exhibition, in New Delhi, India, December 13th – 15th.

“The AOLT-4200 platform was developed at our Research and Design centers in Mumbai and Chennai to meet the unique requirements of the rural broadband environment and is being locally manufactured by our partner in Sriperumbudir, Tamil Nadu” commented Dr. Bharat P. Dave, Chairman and Managing Director of Alphion® India. “The platform also includes the critical timing features needed for wireless mobile backhaul. The ability to efficiently backhaul large amounts of data through GPON based access networks solves a major constraint for today’s and future wireless networks. The AOLT-4200 addresses the bottlenecks and inefficiencies created in wireless backhaul networks as broadband access becomes dominant in base station backhaul and the size of the wireless cells decreases.”

Thanks Craig.  I meant "Reduces TCO while supporting additional revenue of backhaul".  TCO reduction considers numerous features supported in smaller form factor box.

Congratulations to Team Alphion for reaching this milestone !!

This makes business case and ROI even more compelling for Alphion's FTTH/GPON technologies as the best solution for Access Networks, particularly where fiber and mobile traffic are generated in close locations (which is usually most of them due to population distribution patterns). 

The availability of sufficient bandwidth, reach, flexibility, QOS and timing characteristics, Reduces total cost of ownership via additional revenue of backhaul !! 

ROI improvement estimates could range from 10 to 20 %, depending on the traffic and utilization characteristics.
