The Ukraine is set to benefit from improved broadband thanks to a €12m investment.
Belgian service provider Ulysse Group, is to deploy a fibre optic broadband network in Liège, Belgium.
European IT systems supplier, S&T AG has signed contracts for the acquisition of the Iskratel Group.
Iskratel has launched an XGS-PON Optical Line Terminal (OLT) blade for its broadband-access product SI3000 Lumia, offering a multitude of access technologies.
Iskratel has launched two new edge-computing solutions – including an ‘amphibian’ GPON OLT. Building on its SI3000 Lumia G16 compact GPON Optical Line Terminal (OLT), the company’s new dual-nature OLT can operate as a traditional integrated OLT, but also provides a disaggregated white-box solution, based on virtual OLT Hardware Abstraction (vOLTHA) principles.
A central European cable and satellite operator has successfully completed the testing of a hybrid last-mile broadband solution combining Iskratel’s GPON technology and Teleste’s DOCSIS-based mini-CMTS.
Now available from Iskratel are two universal next-generation PON blades – the 8-port multi-PON blade and the 16-port GPON blade. The blades are designed to aid a lucrative and controlled upgrade to next-generation networks, such as NG-PON2 and XGS-PON.
The 8-port multi-PON blade simultaneously supports NG-PON2 and XGS-PON technologies, without the need to replace current PON infrastructure, whilst the NG-PON blade is flexible enough to allow operators to build on their existing GPON shelves, providing a pay-as-you-grow, gradual expansion to next-generation networks.
Iskratel has officially launched its second-generation family of universal home gateways, which now feature GPON connectivity. The Innbox V60U is a hybrid customer premises equipment (CPE) device that supports most access network technologies, including GPON, FTTH, ADSL2, VDSL2 and Ethernet.

To some, optical communication product buyers’ expectation that prices continually fall may seem a strange and unnecessary pressure on vendors.
