Cloud-to-Edge Next-Gen PON solution suite
To meet subscriber demand for higher capacity broadband services, network operators are turning to next-generation passive optical networking (PON) technologies such as XGS-PON, 25G, and beyond. But until now, next-gen PON rollouts have been hampered by the high capital and operational costs of legacy, proprietary systems. That’s about to change.
CommScope is passionate about breaking down conventional PON thinking and building modern, intelligent solutions that evolve with the needs of our connected world. We offer an open, cloud-to-edge PON platform that takes flexibility, agility, and cost efficiency to new heights—and a keen focus on successful execution.
The vision and capabilities to help you succeed
The CommScope PON portfolio is built to give service providers an edge by making it easy to build and scale their next-gen networks for virtually any opportunity. That’s why we created a system that is truly open, with the flexibility to accommodate a wide range of deployment scenarios and a set of dynamic features that streamline management and speed the rollout of new features. Our cloud-to-edge PON portfolio is built on decades of experience developing, deploying, and testing advanced FTTH solutions in our cutting-edge, 4000+ square foot PON lab.

From our experts
Next-gen PON: A Cloud-to-Edge approach
Leveraging two decades of PON experience, CommScope has developed a next-generation PON system that delivers cloud-to-edge innovation and unlocks new benefits for service providers. Erik Gronvall, CommScope’s VP of PON PLM, discusses how CommScope’s advanced solution enables flexible deployment, lower total costs, and faster introduction of new features for service providers.
The new network transition: SDN for service provider networks
The opportunity to leverage virtualization and SDN in service provider networks has been discussed for a decade. Now, David Keane Mirajkar, head of Service Provider Solutions and Architecture—CommScope EMEA, explains why the time is right for service providers to deploy next-gen PON networks with advanced software intelligence built in.
Bringing it all together with what’s next in PON
How can service providers bring today’s PON islands together with a centralized strategy? Randy Schmid, CommScope’s Senior Director, Key Accounts, discusses how software-defined networks, flexible hardware solutions, and service assurance play a critical in unifying next-gen PON networks and giving service providers a competitive edge.
