Vecima Networks Inc. (TSX: VCM) today announced that LIWEST, Austria’s leading cable provider, will deploy its Entra® EXS1610 All-PON™ 10G shelf solution with DOCSIS® Provisioning of EPON (DPoE™) after completing a successful lab trial in partnership with Witke, Vecima’s partner in the region.

Its compact temperature hardened shelf footprint can help reduce operating costs and allows operators to deploy anywhere– for maximum flexibility, including data centers, remote outside plant cabinets, the headend, and multi-dwelling units.
The Entra EXS1610 All-PON Shelf features:
- 16 x PON ports: 10G-EPON and XGS-PON
- Temperature-hardened for outside plant deployments
- Multi-vendor optical network terminal (ONT)/optical network unit (ONU) interoperability
- Uplink optics: 2 x 100/40G & 2 x 25/10G with broad third-party optics support
- 300mm depth designed for ETSI-rack compliance
- 1+1 AC or DC power redundancy
“Vecima is unique in offering a purpose-built, 16-port, one rack unit All PON shelf that shares the same software as the worldwide market share-leading Entra SF-4X Remote Optical Line Terminal (R-OLT) platform,” said Vijay Raman, Vice President of Product Line Management at Vecima. “Operators can be confident that the EXS1610 is ready to deploy at scale today.”
Vecima’s portfolio of 10G PON products has achieved strong market adoption, and in March 2024, the Dell’Oro Group named Vecima the global market share leader in both Remote MACPHY and Fiber Remote OLT Distributed Access Architecture (DAA) solutions for the third consecutive year. With broad support for all next-generation cable access technologies, high-value legacy services, and proven industry-leading interoperability, the networks of tomorrow are deployable today without compromise.
