FTTx: Powerful Network Infrastructures for the Services of Tomorrow!

FTTx solutions for Ethernet and SDH

The ever-increasing demand for bandwidth does not just require new transmission processes, but adjustments of the network structure too. Using ADSL technology, bandwidths of up to 6 Mbps can be achieved from the exchange locations to cover the network extensively. Bandwidths that are greater than this require a shorter distance between DSLAM (DSL-Access Multiplexer) and subscriber. As a result, a rising number of new network architectures with fibre optics are being used, such as:

FTTN (Fibre-to-the-Node): Moving the DSLAM to a street cabinet near to the customer and connecting the customer via ADSL2plus or VDSL2.

FTTB (Fibre-to-the-Building): Installing a small DSLAM in the building and connecting the subscribers via VDSL2.

FTTH (Fibre-to-the-Home): Connecting customers via optical Ethernet interfaces.

KEYMILE products support these FTTx network architectures perfectly and therefore give you maximum freedom in structuring your network.


MileGate combines carrier-grade broadband access, telephony and data interfaces in one single, compact Next-Generation Access Platform that is excellent for the FTTx architecture. Consequently, network operators can continue to support legacy telephony and broadband services. At the same time they can migrate to the NGN (Next Generation Network) and provide high-quality Triple Play and broadband business services too, based on flexible, first class engineering.

  • 3 types for FTTB, FTTH and FTTC
  • GbE uplink (optical or electrical
  • A variety of DSL interfaces (ADSL2plus, SHDSL, VDSL2)
  • Triple Play services, such as IPTV, broadband Internet access, VoIP
  • EFM (Ethernet in the First Mile)
  • SHDSL.bis with pair bonding
  • 100BaseFX/GbE
  • SHDSL (ATM) and SHDSL (TDM)
  • Media gateways for POTS/ISDN telephony via V5.2 or VoIP
  • Migration of TDM services
  • Enhanced range of temperatures -25 °C to + 60 °C


The UMUX family is a Next-Generation Multi-Service Access system that can provide a range of applications for public and private network operators. Especially for cross-connect systems, the UMUX family is equipped with an STM-4 multiplex system and a wide range of subscriber interfaces, including integrated Ethernet support.

  • Two types
  • Media gateways for POTS/ISDN telephony via V5.x or VoIP
  • Voice interfaces (POTS, ISDN-BA, ISDN-PRA, MelCas)
  • SHDSL (TDM) with or without remote supply module
  • Data interfaces (V.11, V.35, 100BaseT, GbE)
  • Enhanced range of temperatures -25 °C to + 70 °C
