Calix Intelligent Access EDGE reduces OPEX up to 80 percentIndustry Announcements, , 5/5/2022
SAN JOSE, Calif. – Calix, Inc. (NYSE: CALX) today announced that Vattenfall Eurofiber GmbH (Vattenfall) has selected the Intelligent Access EDGE and Network Innovation Platform (AXOS®) to connect Berlin homes and businesses to a new, high-speed 10G fiber network. Vattenfall plans to deploy the Calix E7®-2 Intelligent Modular System—powered by the Network Innovation Platform—to build a future-proof, open-access network. The Intelligent Access EDGE and Network Innovation Platform will significantly increase efficiency and simplify operations, helping Vattenfall lower OPEX and CAPEX by up to 80 percent in potential combined savings. The new software-defined network will reach more than 500,000 households and businesses in Berlin, delivering enhanced bandwidth at up to 10G speeds. Calix everyPON network spans both GPON and XGS-PON technologies, enabling local broadband service providers (BSPs) to use them for a wide range of residential and commercial applications. Vattenfall’s fiber deployment will be a flagship model for a new generation of fiber networks across Europe to replace legacy copper-based infrastructure. Vattenfall will build out the network through 2026. Calix value added retailer ANEDIS GmbH AR will work with Vattenfall to facilitate local service integration. Open-access fiber network operators deliver a state-of-the-art network to their retail BSP customers. In turn, those BSPs can take advantage of the many benefits of owning a network—without the typical level of OPEX and CAPEX necessary for running it. They enjoy new levels of scalability, programmability, and automation, enabling them to simplify operations and excite their subscribers with innovative new services. Finally, residential and business subscribers benefit from the freedom to choose the BSP whose service offerings best fit their needs. To support its growing presence in the country, Calix recently joined BREKO, Germany’s leading broadband association. BREKO member companies, including Vattenfall, are committed to collaboratively promoting the deployment of fiber networks to support government broadband rollout targets. The Federal German Government plans to invest up to 12 billion EUR ($14.3 billion) in various connectivity projects, including fiber, as part of its plan to deliver gigabit broadband service throughout Germany by 2025. Learn how the Intelligent Access EDGE and Network Innovation Platform are helping broadband service providers transform their business, simplify operations, and grow revenue.
