Total FTTH Solution Approved for USDA's Rural Utilities Service

Telco Systems' T5C Ethernet switch and EdgeGate gateways products have been accepted for use in Fiber-To-The-Home (FTTH) and telecommunication projects funded by the United States Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service (RUS). The approval enables service providers to offer a single-source complete FTTH and FTTB end-to-end solution using Telco Systems' family of carrier-class IP aggregation and core routing switching platforms and CLE gateways deploying community broadband networks utilizing RUS loans and grants. The Telco Systems IP media gateway enables service providers to offer FTTH or FTTB (Fiber-To-The-Business) for converged VoIP Internet voice service, video, data and broadband Internet access over a single fiber pair to the end user at their home or office. The EdgeGate CPE IP gateway is an Ethernet-based switch with 2 voice ports and up to 8 high-speed Ethernet ports for video, data and broadband Internet access.

The EdgeGate CPE gateway provides the optical-to-electrical conversion that makes FTTH possible and enables end-users to connect standard phones, faxes, PCs, video monitors and televisions to an optical fiber IP Ethernet network.

The EdgeGate CPE 232 is the only IP gateway platform that supports a wide variety of optical fiber uplinks that enable it to be configured with either a Fast or Gigabit Ethernet transceiver. It can be deployed indoors (residence or business) or outdoors in an environmentally controlled and secure cabinet, and supports Automated Meter Reading (AMR) and is equipped to support battery backup to provide lifeline telephony. It supports all current VoIP signaling protocols including SIP, MGCP and H.323. Other protocols are optional and can be enabled.

The T5C family is a NEBS Level 3 certified routing switch that can accommodate up to 24 10/100/1000 fiber and copper circuits and four Gigabit fiber or copper uplinks in a 1.75" rack space (1 RU). The T5 Compact is ideal for applications like video and voice services where reliability is critical, as it offers a standards-based, sub 50msec switch recovery time for link or switch failure. When paired with the Company's RUS-approved EdgeGate CLE device, the T5C offers a field proven, fully managed end-to-end FTTH solution.
