Multi-PON Standard Compatibility
Supports 10G-EPON, XG-PON, and XGS-PON, enabling operators to deploy across diverse access environments.
8 Independent Ethernet Ports with Voice
Boasts one 10 GbE port plus eight 2.5 GbE LAN ports, each capable of serving distinct tenants or service tiers. Includes eight FXS voice ports for embedded telephony support.
DOCSIS DPoE 2.0 Provisioning Support
Seamlessly integrates with existing DOCSIS provisioning systems to simplify deployments and back-office operations.
Robust Diagnostic Capabilities
Features MAC loopback for advanced troubleshooting and proactive network maintenance.
Flexible Mounting & Commercial-Grade Resilience
Designed for both rack and wall installations, with an expanded temperature tolerance ideal for commercial environments.
Benefits for Service Providers
- Turnkey MDU/SMB Service Delivery: Delivers high-speed broadband, voice, and independent Ethernet services through one compact unit—ideal for tenants or business users in one building.
- Efficient Provisioning & Scalability: DPoE integration eases migration to fiber telecom platforms, while support for VLANs and traffic segmentation ensures scalable, differentiated service delivery.
- Simplified Maintenance and Reliability: MAC Loopback and carrier-grade hardware design reduce support overhead and enhance uptime—key advantages for multi-tenant deployment scenarios.
*Please note that the NOVA2208 does not come with built-in provisioning support for the 8 Ethernet Ports. To configure each LAN port for individual apartments or customers within an MDU, Internet Service Providers (ISPs) will need to utilize a dedicated provisioning tool.
