FS Box-type OLT: The Compact Solution for High-Performance PON Networks
With the growing number of internet users and the surge in data traffic, traditional broadband access methods can no longer meet the demand for high speed and large bandwidth. The OLT (Optical Line Terminal) is a key device for achieving point-to-multipoint transmission of optical signals. It is important in modern fiber access networks, especially in FTTH (Fiber to the Home) and other broadband access scenarios.
Small-capacity OLTs have become essential components of modern communication networks due to their flexibility and adaptability, making them an ideal choice for cost-effective network construction.
Overview of FS OLT Devices for PON Networks
FS OLTs come in two main types: chassis-type and box-type. Chassis-type OLTs are usually used in large enterprises and carrier-grade network deployments. Users can flexibly add or replace line cards to meet different network transmission needs, offering high capacity and scalability.
Box-type OLTs also known as small-capacity or pizza box OLTs, have a simple, all-in-one design. They are plug-and-play, making them easier to deploy. Additionally, box-type OLTs are cheaper and are often a better choice for projects with tight budgets.
FS 3610 Series Box-type OLT
The FS 3610 series GPON OLT offers exceptional flexibility and cost-effectiveness, making it an ideal choice for distributed fiber deployments. With a compact 1U design and powered by the Broadcom BCM68621 chipset, it delivers high bandwidth and low-latency network connections with low power consumption.
The 3610 series supports 8 or 16 PON ports, along with 4x 1G COMBO ports, 4x 1G SFP ports, and 4x 10G SFP+ ports, ensuring fast and stable data transmission. Each PON port can support up to 128 terminals, allowing a 16-port OLT to serve up to 2,048 users, providing strong support and reliability for network deployments.

Why Choose FS Box-type OLT
Elevate Network Performance
The rise in end-users and devices has led to a greater need for fast and stable networks. FS GPON OLT meets this demand by providing 1.25Gbps upstream and 2.5Gbps downstream bandwidth. It uses QoS technology to prioritize important traffic like voice, video, and data, ensuring these applications get the needed bandwidth and low latency. This improves overall network performance. Even with more users, FS GPON OLT manages and distributes bandwidth effectively, so everyone gets a fast and smooth internet experience.
Maximize Space Efficiency
As the number of data centers and network devices grows, making the most of limited server room space has become a key concern for customers. The FS 3610 Series OLT is designed to be compact, with a height of 1U (1.75 inches), a width of 17.52 inches, and a depth of just 11.81 inches. This small size allows for flexible use in tight spaces, greatly reducing the cost of server room space.
Simplify Network O&M
For customer groups without professional knowledge, like enterprise and campus clients, hiring technicians for network setup and equipment maintenance usually costs a lot. The FS 3610 series OLT has a plug-and-play feature that makes installation easy. Even non-professionals can quickly set it up, which shortens the deployment time.
Its user-friendly WebUI management interface allows users to easily monitor port status, important data, and alarms. This allows for real-time visualization and accurate fault detection, making maintenance simpler.
In a PON network, the FS OLT can also manage FS ONU devices centrally. This reduces the need for professional technicians, lowering operational costs and increasing efficiency.
Boost Network Security
FS OLT (Optical Line Terminal) includes several security features like ACL (Access Control Lists), RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service), TACACS+ (Terminal Access Controller Access-Control System Plus), and DHCP Snooping. These features work together to secure the network.
ACL allows network administrators to control which users and devices can access network resources, preventing unauthorized access. RADIUS and TACACS+ provide centralized authentication, ensuring only verified users can use network devices and services. This dual-layer protection significantly improves network security and reduces risks.
DHCP Snooping stops malicious users from gaining access by pretending to be DHCP servers. It checks and verifies DHCP messages to ensure only legitimate servers can assign IP addresses, keeping the network safe from attacks.
FS OLT Solution: Upgrade All-Optical Networks
In an all-optical network, the OLT is a key component that plays a crucial role. Its plug-and-play design allows for quick adjustments and expansions of the network, meeting the needs for high bandwidth and low latency in different environments. By pairing with FS ONU, FS box-type OLT can effectively combine wired and wireless networks, improving the user experience and ensuring stable connections even in crowded areas.
As smart campuses, offices, and hotels become more common, FS has introduced specific solutions for different applications.
For example, in the all-optical hotel solution, FS uses 8-port and 16-port box-type OLTs as core devices. These are paired with WiFi 6 ONU and PoE ONU, meeting various needs like wireless, wired, video, voice, and room smart services. This setup achieves a "one room, one fiber, multiple services" network. It provides guests with high-speed internet, enhancing their stay, and boosting the hotel's service quality. Also, FS OLTs can manage FS ONUs from one place, reducing the workload and stress on maintenance staff, and greatly improving the network's efficiency and stability.
