The Ericsson Broadband Access Node portfolio is Ethernet based and built on experience gained from the delivery of the widely deployed and award-winning IP DSLAMs of the Ericsson EDA product family.

Part of Ericsson’s Full Service Broadband architecture, the portfolio is fully compatible with the all-IP and softswitch-based architecture being adopted by most operators today.

The Broadband Access Node portfolio comprises:

• ToIP
• ADSL, ADSL2, ADSL2+
• VDSL2
• SHDSL2
• GPON switch capability (Gigabit Passive Optical Network)
• Fiber-To-The-Home (GPON or fiber point-to-point)
• Category 5 to the home
• IP MSAN (Multi Service Access Node) providing broadband access and POTS telephony over the same Ethernet uplink

Ericsson’s Broadband Access Node portfolio is the most scalable on the market, addressing existing networks as well as paths to network modernization and delivery of multiple services to residential and business users.

The portfolio includes the Ericsson EDA 1200, EDA 1500 and EDA 2500 product lines as well as integrated Site Solutions. 

The EDA 1500 GPON system, with the highest capacity on the market, and the environmental hardened EDA 1200 VDSL2 solution, suitable for remote outdoor deployment, provide the capacity, scale and robustness required by mass-market IPTV and other IP-based services delivered over fixed broadband infrastructure.

Greater numbers of users are demanding even more from their communications. They want to bring voice, video and high-speed data together in highly enriched, personalized, interactive and on-demand services.
 
The Broadband Access Node portfolio, based on the Ericsson EDA product family, includes features that support the capacity (non-blocking systems) and quality of service needed to deliver these demanding, high-speed multimedia services.

With broadband networks based on Ericsson EDA access nodes, operators can capture new revenue streams confident that they can deliver the reliable, high-quality experience that ensures long-term income.

Ericsson is the ideal business partner for wireline network transformation to IP, with extensive experience of deploying large multi-service networks and unrivalled global and local presence and support.

Taking an end-to-end approach, Ericsson can support operators during every stage of their network transformation, including supply of both active components (whether GPON or fiber point-to-point) and passive components such as cables, ducts, fiber and blowing tools, through to services for planning, design, roll out, civil works, and managed services.
