Product Parameters

SmartAX MA5818  (MA5818 for short) is a  new-generation multiservice  access device designed for  gigabit access. It supports  ultra broadband access and  flexible capacity expansion.  The MA5818 provides G.fast  user ports and can be used in  fiber to the building (FTTB),  fiber to the curb (FTTC), and  fiber to the door (FTTD)  scenarios that demand high  bandwidth access.

Product Highlights

Ultra-High Bandwidth:

·  Supports 20 Gbit/s upstream transmission and 1 Gbit/s access.  

·  Pioneers the use of G.fast, an innovative high-bandwidth copper access technology.  G.fast uses wider spectrums and meets bandwidth requirements by utilizing legacy  copper lines. 

·  G.fast allows carriers to define upstream and downstream rates, and use existing  copper resources to support new services such as home video communications,  remote home surveillance and security protection, and city surveillance.

Flexible Capacity Expansion:

·  Provides separate VP slots to support smooth capacity expansion.  

·  Adopts the innovative G.fast board-inserted design, enabling on-demand G.fast  deployment.

Fast deployment:

·  Maximizes the use of existing copper resources to support future bandwidth  demands and avoid the difficulty of deploying fibers to homes.  

·  G.fast is compatible with VDSL2, allowing live-network users to smoothly upgrade.  Moreover, G.fast lines consume less power than VDSL2 lines.

Easy Maintenance and Management:

·  Supports remote software commissioning, offline deployment, and plug and play  (PnP).  

·  Supports remote fault locating, troubleshooting, and batch upgrade.  

·  Supports mature FTTx network management mode, in which G.fast lines support  and inherit the mature xDSL line diagnosis and line tests.
