DZS (Nasdaq: DZSI), a global leader of access, optical and
cloud-controlled software-defined solutions, today introduced
DZS FiberWay – the industry's first end-to-end,
environmentally hardened fiber broadband solutions specifically
designed to bridge the digital divide. Architected to meet the
unique challenges of middle mile and last mile fiber networks both
today and in the future, DZS FiberWay empowers service providers
leveraging broadband stimulus programs to invest in solutions
across the access, optical, subscriber and cloud edge that position
them for sustainable success long after the awarded funds are
spent.
“As communications service providers continue to chip away at
the digital divide, they face the pressing need for effective
solutions that not only meet the gigabit broadband requirements of
today, but the multi-gigabit needs of the future while addressing
the business challenges in serving, managing and supporting the
needs of these communities over the long-term,” said Miguel Alonso,
Chief Product Officer at DZS. “This is not a problem solved by
point products for access and transport with software, but rather
requires a comprehensive approach across all of these domains to
meet the unique operational and business needs of unserved and
underserved broadband markets where conditions are challenging,
resources are scarce, yet demand for the latest connected home and
business services and a world-class experience is high. DZS is the
first to step up to this need, disrupting the market with
comprehensive, environmentally hardened access, long-reach yet
high-capacity transport, and cloud edge solutions optimized to
address the real-world challenges service providers are facing
today and addressing their need to scale, upgrade in-place to 50G
PON, and cost-effectively deliver the new services of tomorrow. Not
only is DZS FiberWay architected for and ideally suited to support
the historic government initiatives like the current Capital
Projects Funds, Middle Mile Grant and Broadband Equity and Access
Deployment (BEAD) programs, but it ensures that those who stand-up
to address the challenge of bridging the digital divide have a path
to sustained success long after these programs are over.”
Architected to enable service providers to get to market fast in
areas where business cases for investment had not historically
existed, DZS FiberWay brings together optimized network elements
tailored for the middle mile, last mile, and in-home networks to
provide end-to-end solutions for broadband-challenged communities.
Key innovations across the access edge, optical edge, subscriber
edge and cloud edge provided by these solutions include:
- Environmentally Hardened
Access and Transport Solutions: Unserved and underserved
areas will have minimal existing infrastructure and be in remote
areas, presenting a deployment challenge for service providers.
Investing in air-conditioned cabinets or equipment huts can be
expensive and pose ongoing maintenance and energy challenges.
Hardened DZS FiberWay Access and Transport solutions minimize these
expenses and challenges, often deployable rapidly in existing
cabinets without upgrades to heat-exchangers or in small cabinets
with minimal enhancements.
- High Performance and
Scalable Solutions: Gigabit services have emerged as the
starting point for new deployments today, but multi-gigabit
services are already emerging in the market and new applications
like VR/AR/XR, 8K video and remote collaboration are on the
horizon. Edge Access solutions will likely start with 10G XGS-PON
technology today, but require an upgrade to 50G PON, ideally
without service interruption, in the future. Edge Transport
solutions that aggregate these services will be required to scale
commensurate with these data rates and new applications and
transport them over long distances. DZS FiberWay Access solutions
are non-blocking and multi-terabit capacity, allowing for in-place
upgrades to next-generation PON technologies (like 50G PON) and DZS
FiberWay Transport solutions leverage groundbreaking hardened
coherent optics technologies and modular flexibility in a compact
form factor to rapidly scale and reach across long distances.
- Remote Service Assurance
and Experience Management Solutions: All broadband
stimulus programs have service assurance requirements, administered
in the form of periodic reporting. For service providers who need
to make a positive business case beyond the short-term duration of
these programs, the biggest challenge is ensuring low churn and new
service revenues for into the future. Proven DZS Cloud Edge
software solutions, which currently support more than 70 million
homes globally, provide tools to not only meet the reporting
requirements for current stimulus programs, but also offers
world-class AI-driven network service assurance and WiFi home
experience management as well as orchestration, automation, and
service life-cycle management solutions that dramatically lower
necessary truck rolls, increase customers satisfaction, and allow
for rapid creation of new services remotely.
“Service providers face massive challenges, both operationally
and economically, when it comes to delivering high-speed digital
services to rural and remote locations and to date this has been a
major reason that the digital divide persists,” said Geff Smith,
SVP Technology and Communication, Irby Broadband. “DZS FiberWay
looks to be a first-of-its-kind solution that delivers an
all-in-one environmentally hardened and cost-effective combination
of systems and software that is well-suited for remote areas both
now and in the future and we are excited for the promise it offers.
After having enabled hundreds of thousands of broadband lines at
electric utilities across the county, I can tell you that it pays
to think long-term about your partners and solutions, and DZS has
historically given us the innovative tools to put our clients on
the path to sustained success that they need.”
