Overview
Connect customers even in the most unforgiving places
The E3-2 has a 'deploy anywhere' design that can be mounted aerially, in a pedestal, on a wall or on a pole. This flexibility reduces costs while accelerating construction and service activation - making it an ideal choice for challenging environments.
Introducing self-diagnosis capability
Helps rural Service Providers simplify operations
Introducing a smart self-diagnostic capability on the E3-2 that makes system troubleshooting and rolling service trucks out to remote areas a thing of the past.
Software Defined Access
For cable operators seeking a simple path to SDA
The innovative Calix AXOS DPx solution on the E3-2 will dramatically reduce your operational costs and network complexity. AXOS DPx is the industry’s first virtualized DOCSIS microservice connector for seamless integration, management and control of anyPHY™ into a cable operator’s back office system.
The AXOS E3-2 is ideally suited for virtualized functions and facilitates a seamless transformation to software defined access.
The E3-2 simplifies the upgrade path from Gigabit to multi-Gigabit PON with field replaceable modules. Upgrade without impacting neighboring services.
Seamlessly integrate into networks by leveraging existing right-of-ways and power, without worrying about land acquisition and permitting delays.
The Calix E3-2 Intelligent PON Node is a flexible and upgradable system that can be deployed cost effectively in environmentally challenged remote locations to provide PON services. Each E3-2 provides two pluggable subscriber interface modules supporting XGS-PON, GPON, and Multi-PON optics.
