PRODUCT OVERVIEW

arris.com

The E6000® Converged Edge Router (CER) is a next-generation

CCAP™ platform that provides cable operators unprecedented

advances in channel density, power efficiency, and cost savings

in a redundant, integrated architecture designed from the

ground up for high availability.

As a full CCAP system, the E6000 CER not only enables

operators to converge all services (video, HSD, and voice) on a

single physical interface utilizing DOCSIS, but with the addition

of the 10G EPON Fiber Module (10G EPFM), the E6000 CER can

also deliver all services directly to the customer premises over

fiber utilizing the same DOCSIS infrastructure via DPoE.

E6000® Converged Edge Router

10G EPON Fiber Module (EPFM)

The 10G EPFM line card brings 10Gbps symmetrical EPON functionality to the E6000 CER platform. The EPFM equipped with

EPON optics modules, and the E6000 CER configured with second generation RSM-2 cards, enables the E6000 CER to operate as

an access Optical Line Terminal (OLT) supporting delivery of residential and business services over a Fiber to the Premises (FTTP)

Access architecture.

The 10G EPFM can also be equipped with DWDM optics modules for connection to node or premises (e.g. MDUs) located PON

extenders (e.g., ARRIS Fiber Link Module (FLM)) to increase reach to subscriber locations up to 100Km, and to avoid the need to

overbuild existing hub to node trunk fibers by carrying multiple 10G EPON wavelengths over a single fiber. Further, with the

ARRIS DPoE V2.0 compliant DOCSIS Control Interface integrated in the 10G EPFM, operators can leverage existing DOCSIS back

office systems to seamlessly evolve their access networks to FTTH service delivery.

E6000® CER 10G EPON Fiber Module

The RSM-2 with its high-capacity architecture, comprehensive suite of switching and

routing protocols and integrated CCAP platform functions, along with the EPFM creates

a fully integrated DPoE system, allowing operators to utilize their current DOCSIS

provisioning and service models to deploy high speed triple play services with 10G

EPON. Thus, the 10G EPFM enables service providers to offer PON applications as a

feature of the E6000 CER platform as seamlessly as the standard CCAP services they

offer now. The EPFM operates as a standard 10G EPON access network interface

module for delivery of services from the E6000 CER to the customer premise 10G EPON

Optical Network Units (ONUs), providing fiber network connectivity from the hub or

head-end located E6000 CER all the way to the customer premises.
