Upgrade network capacity, quality, and reliability without costly fiber construction
Improve fiber utilization with high-performance, multi-wavelength, legacy-friendly optical nodes
Deploy minimum configuration today; expand incrementally as demand requires
Increase the capacity of the network already deployed -- inexpensively and incrementally
Segment nodes easily, flexibly and cost-effectively
For operators facing fiber exhaustion, the ARRIS Opti Max family of high-performance, multi-wavelength, segmentable optical nodes provide a flexible, cost-effective migration path to expanded capacity without laying additional fiber. With strand, wall, or cabinet mount configurations, the Opti Max family readily integrates with legacy HFC architectures and equipment to protect the MSO’s investment while delivering next-generation functionality and price-performance. Opti Max is a full-featured product family offering high port-to-port isolation for superb qualityand segmentation options from 2 x 2 to full 4 x 4 for flexibility and growth.
The modular design of the Opti Max segmentable and field-upgradable nodes provides a “pay as you grow” scalability, enabling MSOs to deploy minimal configurations today and expand easily as subscriber demand increases. The Opti Max family upgrades many legacy amplifiers such as C-COR and Phillips and the Opti Max optical lid upgrades provide a low-cost way to quickly enhance service or to segment coax subscriber groups. Opti Max nodes are engineered for a fast, easy, connectorized installation: no special fiber equipment and no extensive engineering evaluations are needed. Opti Max models provide industry-leading segmentation on a single fiber and offer power and optical redundancy options for the carrier-grade reliability required by VoIP and data applications.
