ZTE Corporation, a global leader in ICT solutions, introduced its Fibre To The Room for Business (FTTR-B) series at the FTTH Conference 2024. This groundbreaking release encompasses innovative solutions aimed at accelerating the digital evolution of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
Key highlights of the FTTR-B series include:
- Enterprise-Level FTTR-B Main ONT: ZTE pioneers the industry with the world’s first enterprise-grade FTTR-B main Optical Network Terminal (ONT) powered by an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC). This ONT boasts exceptional performance and significantly reduces power consumption by 70% compared to traditional FPGA chips. It also enhances efficiency with a 90% reduction in the quiet window and a 75% decrease in uplink time division multiplexing (TDM) latency. With its combo uplink access capability, enterprises can seamlessly transition to 10G broadband without infrastructure modifications, while ensuring robust security features for peace of mind.
- FTTR Room ONT with STB Functionality: ZTE introduces the industry’s inaugural FTTR room ONT integrated with set-top box (STB) functionality. This device streamlines video service delivery in various settings, requiring only one terminal per room. By integrating STB functions, it saves space and eliminates issues associated with standalone STBs, such as cable clutter and poor WiFi signals. Additionally, it offers enhanced energy efficiency and simplified installation requirements.
- Ceiling-Mounted Access Points: Addressing installation challenges, ZTE presents ceiling-mounted APs equipped with an innovative installation bracket design and smart antenna technology. These APs offer optimal WiFi coverage across diverse installation scenarios, supporting pole, ceiling, wall, and box mount configurations in seven different settings. Furthermore, built-in Bluetooth and Zigbee technologies facilitate IoT network transformations for enterprises.
The FTTR-B series represents a significant leap forward with six major upgrades:
- Enterprise-level protection
- Core-chip performance enhancement
- Service integration optimization
- Seamless roaming capabilities
- Flexible coverage solutions
- Compatible installation enhancements
These upgrades ensure a seamless digital working experience for users while enabling operators to modernize enterprise networks effectively, tapping into the lucrative SME market.
As FTTR leads the second “fibre transformation revolution,” ZTE remains committed to developing tailored products and solutions for diverse FTTR-B scenarios. Collaborating with global operators and industry partners, ZTE aims to usher in an era of all-optical digital enterprises.
